has an option to change your text size, but did you know you can also zoom the editor in VS 2010?\u00a0 Ctrl+mouse wheel zooming has been available since the first Visual Studio 2010 CTP, but we\u2019ve finished it by adding a zoom control and key bindings in Beta 2.\u00a0 Check out this video we\u2019ve created to demo the new Zoom functionality (this demo has video and audio, so plug in your headphones or turn up the sound).<\/p>\n<p>There are several ways to zoom in and out:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Hold down Control and scroll your mouse wheel<\/li>\n<li>Use keyboard shortcuts Ctrl+Shift+period (zoom in) and Ctrl+Shift+comma (zoom out)<\/li>\n<li>Type a zoom level directly in the the zoom control in the bottom left corner of the editor<\/li>\n<li>Select a common zoom level from the dropdown list in the zoom control<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You can do everything described in this post with Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2, so I hope you\u2019ll try out the new zoom feature and let us know what you think!<\/p>\n<p>Brittany Behrens\nProgram Manager, Visual Studio Editor Team<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"clip_image002\"
