Some desktop elements can be difficult to spot, and not all applications or windows are fitted with a zoom option. However, there is the magnifier which helps get a closer look of any area of interest. What’s more, Magnifying Glass Pro comes with more than just a means of zooming in on details.

Once the application is launched the configuration panel shows up so you can set up default behavior options. You can choose to have the application launched with Windows so that it’s ready by the time you reach the desktop, and enable the glass when the application is launched.

Down over to the glass profiles tab you have the possibility to create multiple types of glasses, depending on your needs. Basic options include sliders for transparency and update interval, size and shape characteristics, as well as cursor follow option, which can also mean following the caret, suitable for reading modes.

Advanced options are used to define glass position by choosing from different presets in a drop-down menu. A preview can be enabled at any moment, with all changes instantly taking effect. Profiles are saved and selected from a drop-down menu.

Moreover, you can choose an automatic switcher mode, which means the glass automatically appears on the desktop based on preset options whenever a specific window shows up or program is launched. There are additional options to configure mouse shaking, which triggers a specific action when shaking the cursor, and assigning, or at least taking a look over the general set of hotkey commands.

Bottom line is that Magnifying Glass Pro is a powerful zoom tool with a large variety of customization options ranging from visual styles to behavior and controls. It can follow the cursor around and even enable interaction only within its boundaries, or simply show up when shaking the mouse for quick magnified preview of custom screen regions.
