Extension summary

UPDATED: Added a Start button to begin zooming, press Escape to end

CraftyZoom allows you to magnify a portion of the screen! Simply click the CZ icon to set the size of your magnifying glass as well as the degree of magnification, then use either CMD-SHIFT-Z or CTRL-SHIFT-Z to enable and disable.

Note: You cannot scroll down while CraftyZoom is enabled, so if you need to magnify something lower on the screen, simply disable CZ, scroll down, and enable it again.
