Request new feature/tool
Today: when Windows Magnifier is in Full screen mode and there are more than 1 monitors, Magnifier uses both monitors to zoom in. This is not usable because there's a big gap between monitors and because monitors might not be same size or next to each other.

Requested behavior: Limit magnifier (full screen zoom) to 1 monitor only, let multiple magnifiers run at the same time to allow for different levels of magnification per monitor. Note that requested behavior is not the same as DPI scaling

The feature exists in accessibility tools like ZoomText

Thank you

Honestly, Windows Feedback hub may be a better spot for it as we'd have to reimplement the tool versus have that team improve the existing item.

i am looking for a tool with this feature but there isnt anyone or at least one with good performance, zoomtext doesnt have good perfomance and zoomit doest have the option to center the mouse in 1 monitor also it doesnt allow you to use livezoom unless you activate it which is frustrating cause i need to use 2 mouse hotkeys to use livezoom with zoomit, one for activation and other for zoom in zoom out
