Hello and welcome to this video series on the Gimp. And on this video, we're going to introduce you to the magnification or zoom tool. And a quick shortcut to get to this is you can hit Z, the letter Z as in zebra, on your keyboard.

That leads yo to the same spot we are now. As you can see down here on our dialog box, there's not a whole lot of options to choose from. As you probably already familiar with magnification tool, you're gonna zoom in or you're zoom out and not a whole lot of a in between.

Now we've got the auto-resize window and you get to zoom in radio button and you zoom out radio button. So let's go ahead over here. Zoom in, make the image larger. Now if we hit our control button on our keyboard we can also toggle back and forth between those two functions.

And another is we go up here to the toolbar or the menu bar up here and under view, put on the zoom menu. As you can see, we've got some exact options here. They are not made of a little over under the dialog section. Go back here. So you can zoom in, zoom out, you can fit image to window,  and  you can increase the size. Two to one or two-hundred percent and so on. So that's just a quick overview of our magnification tool. There's not a whole lot to it but hopefully you learned something out of this and I wanna thank you very much for watching our video.
