# Zooming

Scintilla allows to zoom in or out on the current text, without actually modifying any font properties. This allows for a quick oversight or a very clear view of the text (or both, see the screenshot and Multi-View).

To zoom in, select View->Zoom->Zoom in, press the button or depress the Ctrl key and scroll the mousewheel forwards.

To zoom out, select View->Zoom->Zoom out, press the button or depress the Ctrl key and scroll the mousewheel backwards.

To restore the original zoom (100%), select View->Zoom->Restore default zoom setting.
