Apple: Screen size jumps?
 
Still figuring out my Apple MacBook Pro...

The screen occasionally jumps in size from fine print to large print.

Not sure what my fat fingers are hitting to make this happen.

Any advice?

Is it possible you are just multi-touch zooming? Is it happening in your web browser or in other programs like Finder and such?

Does Command+0 fix it?

Not sure what MTZ is?

Command+0 changed it back to normal size. Thanks!

What was I doing to change it?

The new trackpads have multi touch features. Some carried over from older generations but most of them are new...

One finger...moves the mouse and clicks.

Two fingers...together, they scroll on a page or in a window in whichever direction you move them. Apart, they can rotate pictures, zoom in (pinch apart), zoom out (pinch together).

Three fingers...navigates; you can go back and forth thru a folder of pictures, thru webpages, etc.

Four fingers...clears the desktop, accesses expose, etc.

You can view the defaults and change them as necessary under the settings. Just look for "Trackpad."
