Zoom and displays
Fit, fill or zoom the picture, follow the Mac's cursor, and pick a display.
Zoom
- Pinch to zoom in and out, and drag to move around (in Touch mode).
- Scale in the session controls: Size to Fit, Size to Fill or Actual Size.
- On a keyboard, hold Escape and press = or - to zoom around the pointer, or 0 to fit.
Each Mac opens at its Initial Scaling Mode, unless Remember Selected Display is on (the default): then it opens where you were last looking, at the same zoom.
Follow
When you're zoomed in, the view can follow what happens on the Mac. Choose in the Quick switcher's Follow menu, or the window list:
| Follow | What the view does |
|---|---|
| Off | Stays where you put it. |
| Cursor | Keeps the Mac's cursor in sight when it moves on the Mac. On by default. |
| Window | Moves to the front window, also after ⌘-Tab. Needs Secure Connection or BoxView Helper. |
Keep Zoom When Switching, in the same menu, keeps your zoom when you jump to another window: the view only pans. Off, the view fits the window.
Displays
When the Mac has more than one display, the session controls show Displays: All, or one display, named by its place: Main, Left, Right, Above or Below. Jumping to a window on another display switches to it.
