Overview

Enlarge images on hover for better accessibility. Perfect for visually impaired users.

➤ Main features: •Hover magnification: No need to click; simply hover over an element to activate it. •Smart detection: Works on `<img>` and `<video>` tags as well as `<a>` links pointing to image or video files (common formats like `.jpg`, `.png`, `.gif`, `.mp4`, `.webm`, etc.). •Automatic video playback: Detected videos start automatically in the preview window, muted and looping for seamless viewing. •Two display modes: 1. Double size (beside): Shows the image at 200% of its original size in a window next to the cursor. The window positions itself intelligently to stay on screen. 2. Full width (overlay): Displays the image large, overlaying the page content and taking up the width of the window. •Full control: A simple, intuitive popup lets you toggle the extension on or off and switch modes on the fly. •Configurable zoom factor: Adjust the magnification level directly from the popup. •Quick Close with Escape : Just press the `Escape` key to instantly close any active preview, without needing to move your mouse. •Lightweight and performant: Designed to have minimal impact on browsing performance by activating scripts only when necessary. ➤ How to use: 1. Click the extension icon in the toolbar to open the configuration popup. 2. Use the main switch to enable or disable the extension. 3. Choose your preferred "magnification mode": `Double size (beside)`: Ideal for quickly inspecting images without losing page context. `Full width (overlay)`: Perfect for viewing an image in greater detail. 4. Adjust the **zoom factor** to control the magnification level. ➤ Contributing: Contributions are welcome!
