Screen Magnifier Lite

Screen Magnifier Lite is a compact and lightweight application that will help users magnify portions of their screen with ease. It comes with an uncomplicated interface and useful features that will make it straightforward and users will appreciate the logic upon which it was designed. For those who search for a non-obtrusive and elegant screen magnifier, Screen Magnifier Lite will be a good solution.

Adequate interface and logical use of the provided features

Most screen magnifiers are not complex applications and offer basic functionality of zooming in / out on designated areas on the screen. In order to compensate for their basic features, they will offer additional tools such as screen capture.
Screen Magnifier Lite offers a different approach and tries to make the most out of its core features by providing different options that other similar software solutions might not have.
For instance, its interface is resizable and users can increase the zoom viewing area for a better perspective of neighboring screen features.
The magnifying window does not move on the screen, but instead it keeps its fixed position and shows a magnified view of the area where the mouse pointer is hovering.

Zooming range of up to 8x, included crosshair overlay and accessible tools

Screen Magnifier Lite features a zooming range between 2x to 8x magnification and users can easily adjust the zoom level by accessing the large magnification slider in its interface. The zooming range slider provides increments out every 2x and can be used both with the mouse cursor or with the arrow keys.
Users also benefit from a crosshair overlay inside the zoom viewing interface, and therefore are able to easily define a reference point for the elements inside the magnified area.
One other useful feature that this application offers is the fact that when users bring the mouse cursor back into its interface, the zooming function is stopped and they have easy access to its tools.

Useful zooming utility that offers flawless operation, but might lack other features

Screen Magnifier Lite provides users with a basic, yet very well designed interface that features all the functions one might need for accurately magnifying areas of the display.
Putting no stress on the PC in terms of memory or other requirements, it allows users to easily zoom in / out where they need, with no difficulties.
However, demanding users might crave for a more elegant interface and additional features like a larger zoom view window or increased magnification.
