How to Enable or Disable Magnifier in Ubuntu Linux
The screen magnifier in Ubuntu Linux enlarges text and images across your desktop to help you read small details on your monitor. Press the Super key (known as the Win on most keyboards) and the M key at the same time to turn the magnifier on or off instantly.
Open Settings, then Accessibility, and finally Zoom. Toggle the Zoom switch to On to enable Magnifier, or Off to disable it.
You can adjust the zoom level, change how the screen follows your mouse pointer, and pick where the magnified area sits through the desktop settings menu.
