Zooming out on PC
  • I just downloaded Season's School's Out upgrade on my PC. In all the others I could use my touchpad to zoom out but on this one I can't. I aim better when I can see the whole screen at once; any ideas on how to zoom out? When I try the two-finger swipe I just get the four-sided arrow icon.

  • To zoom in or out on PC, you use the scrolling circle on your mouse. And you can't use a two finger swipe for a computer.
  • @BridgetH The scroll wheel, or up/down arrows, are likely the best bet for you.

    @BBinMiami Some computers have a touchpad that allows multi-touch commands.
  • @AMslimfordy, I just tried the up/down arrows and they didn't work, either. I've also discovered that the earlier editions no longer zoom out, either.
  • @BridgetH : Did you recently update the device driver for your touchpad?
  • @Brave1966, no, I didn't make any changes other than to download the new release.
  • @BridgetH : Very strange. Try reinstalling your touchpad driver first. If that doesn't work, try installing this weekend's update to Seasons. And if that doesn't work, contact Rovio Support.
  • @Slim you mean for Mac? In that case it makes sense.
  • Boy I don't know where I've been, but where do you get the update of
    "School's Out"? I have "Back to School" which I finished a long time ago, but I don't see anything about "School's Out" Thanks for your help.
  • I think that's what it meant: Back to School.
  • Thanks Slim---it seems we PC-ers don't get as many updates (at least that's what it feels like) that I didn't want to miss out on any.

  • Get just as many as any other platform.
  • Oops, sorry, I guess I did mean Back to School.
  • Sorry, updates was wrong term. Still waiting for "feathers", "M.E"'. and something else that you throw but can't remember the name.
  • @Barbbjb There is no in-app purchasing system for PC at this time. We have absolutely no ETA for such technology.
  • Thanks Slim, didn't realize that's what they were. Just knew they were something I didn't have that I wanted. :-)
  • Okay, I can zoom on Star Wars and on Space, but not on the original AB or on Seasons. When I first downloaded the original and Seasons I could zoom, so at some point it must have been changed with a program update. Any new ideas?
  • I can't think of any new ideas - the PC players should have some.
