If you choose to hide overlay controls by default, use the controls shortcut to reveal them after opening the lightbox.

The activation shortcut can be changed in Settings. Available options include Ctrl + Ctrl, Shift + Shift, and Cmd/Meta + Cmd/Meta.

macOS:

  • If the default shortcut does not work well in your browser or system setup, switch to Shift + Shift or Cmd/Meta + Cmd/Meta in Settings.

Microsoft Edge:

  • Edge includes a built-in Magnify image feature that may also uses Ctrl + Ctrl.
  • If there is a conflict, change this extension's activation shortcut in Settings or turn off Edge's Magnify image setting.

Notes:

Is Image Zoom Lightbox Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Image Zoom Lightbox requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
