Notation Player enables you to change the magnification of the score displayed on the screen. "Zooming in" increases the magnification so that the music symbols appear larger. "Zooming out" makes the symbols appear smaller, so that more of the musical score appears at once in the window.

Although you can specify exact zoom percentage levels with the Zoom Percentage command in the View menu, Notation Player may limit small zoom values to 30% or 40% if you are using Windows Millennium or 98. On Windows XP, 2000 and NT, Notation Player can handle arbitrarily small zoom levels.

 

NOTE: Changing the zoom level affects only the size of music symbols as displayed on the screen.
