See
Them Clearly
How often do you find
yourself squinting while using MS PowerPoint's slide sorter view?
Those slides can be
pretty tiny and if they resemble each other too much, it gets even harder
to distinguish one from the other.
Looking for an easy
way to make the thumbnails in the slide sorter a little larger? Or maybe
a lot larger!
Well, today, I've
got a couple of suggestions for you to try.
The first is to use
the zoom box, which is located in the toolbars at the
top.

I found that I could
change the value to anything from 20 percent on up to 100 percent.
You can either:
- Choose
a value from the drop down list you get from the down arrow
on the right hand side.
- Or click
inside the zoom box, type a value and hit the Enter
key.
Another option I'd
like to discuss is available only if your mouse has a scroll wheel.
If you place your
mouse pointer over the slides on the screen, hold down the Ctrl
key and scroll the wheel, you'll find that the slide
size zooms in and out.
Either way, you can
put an end to your slide sorter squinting forever!
