People like me, with poor eyesight, found a safe heaven in compiz enhanced zoom desktop on Gnome 2. It was customizable, the movements and zoom were smooth and it could be controlled using both keyboard and mouse shortcuts. Many of us felt completely abandoned after the release of Unity in 2010 (yes it had zoom but it was severely limited, see my summary comment and reference to old bug reports here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/762699/comments/18 )
The zoom functionality in Gnome 3 does update the mouse position nearly as often as it should. This results in choppy movements when zoomed in and makes it very hard to read text. It also lacks the ability to zoom in and out using the scroll wheel of the mouse. I'll gladly help out to the best of my ability in order to be able to come home to Ubuntu after exile in KDE-land. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1691675 Title: Gnome Shell desktop zoom judders and performs badly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1691675/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
