Windows 10: Magnifier Scale

In Settings ---- Magnifier: turn it on and INITIALLY there also appeared a scale slidebar which apparently allowed one to set the amount of magnification. This slide bar just up and disappeared and I cannot find any way to get it back. Any help most appreciated

:)

 

Anniversary Update for Mobile Trashed Edge Browser

I couldn't leave this problem alone. It turned out it was the Ease of Access, Text Scaling. It must be set to No More than 100% to keep the Edge web page from truncating, distorting, text overwriting. The other browsers work because they ignore Text Scaling
setting.

Edge should as well. Magnifier can be used instead if needed. Setting text scaling to 100% renders that feature useless for older users like me. Text is so small.

I think Edge should be decoupled from Ease of Access, Text Scaling.

Two finger Magnifier can then be used to enlarge a properly formatted Web Page where needed. Like you do with Pictures.

Unfortunately I need larger text scaling so I'll have to use the substitute browser.

I hope something is done so I can use Edge AND Text Scaling.

 

Unable click "OK", "Cancel" and "Apply" buttons in Windows 10 version 1704

Rose, if you need to scale to 250%, there is no real solution here other than a larger monitor, these windows you are having issue with have a fixed size and do not scale, sorry, but there is no way to scroll the whole screen on your monitor . . .

EDIT: a solution maybe to reduce your overall scaling, enlarge text on apps like Word and your Web browser and use the magnifier when dealing with these dialogs that do not scale properly

 

When the scale disappears, do you see a magnifying glass icon ?
If yes, click it.
Is the scale back on ?

 

NO...I have read many references to the spyglass but it simply is not there
