Macos – How to quickly zoom in on the Mac OS X version of Word without having to use the menu

macosmicrosoft wordzoom

(I'm using the Mac version MS Word 2011)

I used to happily use the wheel mouse to zoom but, after upgrading to the Mac Magic mouse (using only finger slide movement to scroll and pan) I can no longer hold Ctrl and roll the mouse to zoom (driving me crazy) and I can't see a useful keyboard shortcut and the zoom slider bar in the lower right of the Word screen isn't practical (in my experience). Is there any way to zoom in on the Mac Version of Microsoft Word 2011 without resorting to using a menu?

Best Answer

Try option+control+scroll. (This works on the touchpad in a MacBook Pro. I don't have a Magic Mouse.)
