Zooming in and out on Google Slides has never been easier, even for Mac users. This functionality is important when you need a closer view of the content, such as images, charts, tables or text, to make sure everything is in place and of high quality. In this blog post, we will guide you through a step-by-step process to successfully zoom in on Google Slides on your Mac.
Step 1: Open Google Slides
Launch your preferred web browser (e.g., Safari, Chrome, Firefox) and go to Google Slides. You can directly access it through https://slides.google.com/.
Step 2: Open Your Presentation
Once you’re on the main Google Slides page, choose the presentation you want to zoom in on. If you have not yet created a presentation, click on the “+ New presentation” button to start one.
Step 3: Zoom In
To zoom in on your Google Slides presentation, go to the menu at the top of the page. Click on the “View” option, then scroll down and click on “Zoom”.
Alternatively, you could use a shortcut on your keyboard. If your Mac has a trackpad, you can pinch out with two fingers to zoom in. However, if you prefer to use keyboard shortcuts, it’s as easy as pressing Command and +.
Step 4: Adjust the Zoom Level
After clicking on “Zoom”, a side menu will appear with different percentage options, allowing you to adjust the zoom level according to your preference. You can choose from 50%, 75%, 100%, 200% or even a custom zoom level.
Step 5: Zoom Out
If you need to zoom out, simply go back to the “View” menu and click on “Zoom” again. Alternatively, you can use the shortcut key, Command and – on your keyboard. If you’re using a trackpad, pinch in with two fingers to zoom out.
Zooming in on Google Slides allows for greater detail and focus during your presentations or while creating them. Now that you know how to zoom in and out on Google Slides on your Mac, you can create more detailed and well-organized presentations.
