In Ubuntu 12.04 Unity, when I use the Compiz Zoom feature, the mouse cursor disappears. This did not happen in 10.04, it worked great until I installed 12.04.
In 12.04 zoom was disabled by default, so I re-enabled it to use Super+scroll wheel as it was before.
I'm new to Ubuntu and am trying to figure out some things. In Notepad++ it is possible to use WebEdit plugin and define keyboard shortcuts for different HTML tags. E. g. "Ctrl + p" can wrap the text in paragraph tags.
Is there such an option in some of Ubuntu's editors.
I'm trying to zoom in (or scale up) one window on the Macbook Pro with HiDPI/retina screen in Unity on 12.04. This is useful for some applications that doesn't allow the font size etc. to be changed. It would also be useful to e.g. scale up Virtualbox on hi-res screens.
The compiz zoom plugin zooms the entire desktop, so that's not what I need.
In a text field you might place the cursor, and backspace over text, but the effects are not displayed - unless you zoom out or in (ctrl+ or -).
You try to highlight text, but nothing is highlighted in the display.
I have been trying to install a gedit plugin called RunC to compile C programs using the text editor.
Although the instructions tell me to use ubuntu 9 or 10 for this, I'm currently running Fedora 16. I thought that I would not have much problems, but after running the shell script using the sh command to install the plugin, gedit showed no signs of the plugin being installed.
On my Galaxy Nexus, I used to be able to pinch to zoom or even double tap to zoom and the text/words would resize to larger to "fit the screen". I can't find that setting to make my S4 do this :( Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
Hello
Steps to reproduce the problem
open nautilus
change to icon view
increase the zoom level using ctrl+mouse wheel
restart nautilus
Result: zoom level was changed to default zoom level :(
Any workaround to nautilus remember the last zoom level?
This is a simple guide on how to enable whole screen zoom in and scale windows down feature in Ubuntu. They are “enhanced zoom desktop” and “shelf” plugins for Compiz.
The Enhanced Zoom Desktop plugin allows the whole screen to be zoomed in for improved legibility.
I am running a ubuntu 12.04 64 bit system with cinnamon 1.6.
Some keyboard shortcuts such as ctrl+a for select all and ctrl+w for close tab do not seem to work in text editors and text fields.
On pressing ctrl+a the cursor just moves to the 1st character of the text field. however ctrl+a does work elsewhere like in nautilus, firefox (non text fields).
