Q&A for How to Zoom Out on a PC

To zoom out in Minecraft, go to the Minecraft settings in the main menu after you launch the game. Go to options, then click video settings. Once in video settings, click on GUI Scale. It should be set to auto. You can click on it multiple times and receive the following: small (zoomed out), normal, large (zoomed in), then back to auto.

You can zoom in and out by using the scroll wheel on the mouse.

It's probably the resolution; try Method 6.

Alternate between CTRL and the - (minus) symbol, until you get the zoom size on the top right. You can then change the size from there, either to zoom in or zoom out.

You can press CRTL+0 to return it to its original size. If that doesn't work, try zooming it the other way, until you get a view similar to the start. If you use a chromium-based browser, you should also see a little icon, which can be clicked and reset the zoom.

This shows that you have audio codecs so you can hear the sound from your laptop or base computer. With the visuals, you need "video codecs" these will make the video graphics appear. When you purchase, say an external DVD player, that connects to your computer via USB port, it will install the video codecs as well as the new audio codecs, so that you can watch movies on your computer. But for now, you can browse your computer for any video codecs to see what is already available or not.

If zooming out with the trackpad isn't working, try using a mouse, as it often provides better control. Alternatively, in Chrome or Microsoft Edge, click the three dots in the top-right corner and adjust the zoom settings there.

Try setting the video to the lowest resolution. This should help make the game fit the screen better.

Try using keyboard shortcuts to leave the Zoom meeting. On Windows, press Alt + Q to leave the meeting; on Mac, use Cmd + W to close the window. If the meeting is stuck, refresh your browser with Ctrl + F5 on Windows or Cmd + Shift + R on Mac. If these steps don't work, force quit your browser: Ctrl + Shift + Esc for Windows to access Task Manager and "End Task," or Cmd + Option + Esc for Mac to "Force Quit."

Right-click on your desktop and select your graphics card settings. There, you should find an option to change the resolution. Additionally, you can go to display settings to find the resolution change option.

Press the Ctrl button and the + button to zoom in, and Ctrl and the - button to zoom out.
