The only screen magnifier is lightning but, will not help you bc it doesn't work for windows 7! Sorry. I will check and see if they released an upgrade for that.----- Original Message ----- From: "David Ogilvie" <d2ogilvi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, January 31, 2011 8:19 AM Subject: Re: Good Free Screen Magnification for Win7?The Windows 7 magnifier can do full screen magnification, but only if you are using the Aero colour scheme. If you are using a high contrast scheme such as "high contrast black" you will only be able to get a "lens mode" magnification. Note also that Windows 7 Magnifier does not provide a screen inversion feature.AISquared also has a slimmed-down version of ZoomText called ZoomText Express which can be purchased from their web site for $50 US. It has screen inversion, up to 2 times magnification, and mouse and insertion point enhancements. While it won't get 16x magnification, and is not free, it will substantially meet your other requirements.I'm not aware of any free magnifiers that meet all of your requirements. Hope this helps!

I'm really just looking for the following features, not the full monty that ZoomText has to offer, and which I rarely use:1. full screen magnification at up to 16 times. 2. Color inversion / negative video.3. Pointer / cursor enhancers, as in largerr sized pointer and cursors (optional, not essential).Help much appreciated!
