Zoom In IE

[gruntydatsun]

Hello,

Can anyone help with setting the zoom level on an instance of IE to 100%?

I found this thread but it's not really a reliable way to get zoom set to 100%:

Any help appreciated.

Well, the default key to set zoom, if I remember correctly (I know for sure in Firefox & Chrome) is Ctrl+0 not, ++. Why is this not a reliable way, so long as you first focus the program on the IE window?

Thanks Damien. Ctrl+0 does it.

Ctrl++ was no good because it just increments up the zoom level. I needed to get the zoom to a known 100%.

I'm using PixelGetColour to find the top left corner of one of those annoying onscreen keyboards for logon for my work web email client. Screen resolution is always the same so I just need to make sure it's at a known zoom so I can narrow down the pixel searching range to keep it speedy.

The stupid O/S keyboard keeps moving around the screen after every keypress so you have to chase it with your mouse. Logging in feels like a game of chasey.

Thanks for the tip

Try CTRL+*

This will set the screen back to 100% whether it is 150% or 50%.

If anyone is still looking for this solution you can use the following to set the IE Zoom level

$iZoomLevel = Int(30) ;30% Zoom
$oIE.ExecWB (63, 0, $iZoomLevel, Null)

63 is  OLECMDID_OPTICAL_ZOOM
