Magnify/shrink icons

Hello,

I have previously been able to change the size of icons in the control panel
by holding down the ctrl button and scrolling the mouse wheel. This function
has now stopped working in the control panel although it does still work in
windows explorer.

Any ideas?

Steve.


Windows Vista Home Premium.
Aero activated.

Doesn't work here either. But it does work with some of CP's subfolders --
Admin Tools, Fonts, Printers. But for the Control Panel itself, it seems
limited to right-click - > View as the only way to change icon size. Are
you sure it ever worked in Control Panel?

Good Luck,

Maybe it does in other View modes.
