While delivering your PowerPoint presentation using Presenter view, you can magnify slide content on the screen.

Note: The process steps below replace the previous zoom method which used the magnifying glass cursor and bright rectangle selection. Additionally, zooming out does not open the see-all-slides view. To see all slides, use the shortcut 'G'. 

  1. In the lower-right corner of your screen select Slide Show view. 

    ...

  2. In the lower-left corner of the screen, select the magnifying glass icon. Note that your slide has been centrally zoomed by 200% and the cursor is now a magnifying glass.

  3. Move the magnification rectangle to the area of the slide you want to focus on, then click to magnify. 

    The cursor becomes a hand symbol, indicating that you can click and drag to move to another part of the enlarged slide. 

  4. To exit zoom mode and return to standard view, press Esc, or re-click the magnifying glass icon located at the lower left margin of the screen.
