Hi I am new to Mint and enjoying my Windows free computer. I am not a techie. My only issue so far, is that I seem unable to magnify my screen view using the scroll pad. Is there any way I can do this?

What is your version of Mint and what is the desktop environment? Which kernel and which architecture? If you don't know open a terminal and enter:

Code: Select all

inxi -Szxx
Paste the output here.

You need to give this information for every help request in every thread.
Do not forget this in the future.

Besides that: Your screen does always show the complete desktop. You can magnify it (but the how to depends from the unknown system), but than you see of course only a part of your desktop.
