For me this overcomes a problem I have with some VST's and AU's: The damn interfaces are too small if you have your monitor set at high resolution like I like to. A couple of pointers though: 1 You said you turn on the trick by pressing " apple, alt, and 8=." The equal sign should not be pressed, though on a PowerBook your + key share real estate with the = key. I corrected the instruction in my quote above. 2. To scroll around your magnified view, hold your left mouse button down and mouse around. This is very intuitive: it took me about 5 seconds to figure this out 3. Bonus tip: The minimum magnification you can go to is the default magnification. In other words, the minus key will not work until after you have magnified the screen a bit. 4. Bonus tip #2: This little tip works in anything, not just Logic. At least in OS X. I don't know about OS 9. Nice one, Apple! Bob Vandiver -- Character matters. So does IQ.
