In this episode of Defrag Tools, Andrew Richards, Chad Beeder and Larry Larsen walk you through Sysinternals ZoomIt.

davewill Yes! The best utility to do on larry's lazy eyed lizard day!

Mark Russinovich Great show! Yes, you can fully customize the break timer background, including making the background transparent. BTW you can also type when you're in drawing mode.

codechurn I use ZoomIt in combination with the OneNote screen grabber (winkey-s). The two put together are VERY useful in day-to-day screen annotations, etc... I have found myself using it more for this type of functionality than actual zooming
-
jvs_ca Yes, Ctrl + S work as designed. Bug in Mark's application? LOL
