ZoomIt is a screen zoom and annotation tool for technical presentations, including application demonstrations.

ZoomIt runs unobtrusively in the tray and activates with customizable hotkeys to zoom in on an area of the screen, move around while zoomed, and draw on the zoomed image. ZoomIt was written to fit the author's specific needs and used in all presentations. You can use pen input for ZoomIt drawing on tablet PCs.

Using ZoomIt

The first time you run ZoomIt, it presents a configuration dialog that describes ZoomIt's behavior, lets you specify alternate hotkeys for zooming and for entering drawing mode without zooming, and customizes the drawing pen color and size. For example, it can be used with the draw-without-zoom option to annotate the screen at its native resolution. ZoomIt also includes a break timer feature that remains active even when you tab away from the timer window and allows you to return to the timer window by clicking on the ZoomIt tray icon.
