Virtual Magnifying Glass is designed for visually-impaired and others who need to magnify a part of the screen. Unlike similar programs it does not open a separate window for the magnification but instead puts a movable magnifying glass on screen.
Features

- New, improved and smaller Mac version
- Supports Windows 98+, Linux, FreeBSD and Mac OS X
- To turn Aero OFF before using the Dynamic Mode in Windows just go to the "Start Menu" and select "Run" and then type: Rundll32 dwmApi #104

I have been using this app for years on Windows, Mac, even an old Linux. I love it! It's better on a Windows machine (which I use for work) than it is on a Mac because shortcuts and keystrokes are easier to program. However, I use a Mac at home and I am using Mac OS Big Sur version 11.0 Beta and I was wondering if you guys were going to put out an update? It stopped working and said The developer of this app needs to update it to work with this version of macOS. Contact the developer for more information. So that's what I'm doing. Maybe I'll send an email too. Cheers, Paul

Thank you very much for the free open source program!

Good enough. Supports old Windows as well as new one

Ridiculously cumbersome to get to move the dynamic magnifyer. Crosshairs showing where the mouse is positioned is like 30-50 pixels too high (Windows 7 bootcamp on late 2012 MacBook pro) Very disappointing. Would have been a great tool
