If you’re someone who uses a Chromebook regularly, you may have found yourself in a situation where everything on the screen looks too big or too zoomed in. In such cases, it’s helpful to know how to zoom out and make everything look smaller. In this article, we will guide you through the steps to zoom out on a Chromebook.

There are three different ways that you can zoom in and out on a Chromebook. The first way is to zoom the entire webpage out so that the entire page just sort of shrinks. To do this, click on the three dots in Google Chrome and then come down to zoom and just click on the minus button. You can click it again and again until it gets back to 100. You can also do a keyboard shortcut by pressing control and the minus key.

The second way is to use the pinch gesture like you would on a touch screen. Put your two fingers on the trackpad and just move them together to zoom out and move them apart to zoom in. If your Chromebook has a touch screen, you can actually do that on the screen as well.

The last way to zoom out on a Chromebook is by changing the entire screen settings. Click on the time and then click on the settings icon. Scroll down in the settings until you find displays and click on it. You’ll see a slider, and if you want to make everything on your screen smaller, all you need to do is slide the slider backwards a bit. Once you’ve set it at whatever you like, you can close the Settings app and now everything will be nice and zoomed out.

In conclusion, there are multiple ways to zoom out on a Chromebook, and you can choose the one that works best for you. Whether you want to make everything smaller or you had just accidentally zoomed in and you want to zoom back out again, these methods should help you.
