Has Your Zoom Slider Gone AWOL Since Installing Lion?Don’t worry, this is just part of the new streamlined look that Mac OX Lion is trying so hard to achieve.
The zoom slider is located on the status bar and the status bar is hidden by default.
Simply click View > Show Status Bar and it will magically appear again!

I don't normally get this close but on this occasion I'll make an exception. So, I'm Ross Whitney or Rosco as I sign my posts and as my lovely wife calls me.
I'm an IT Architect by day and run Proposed Solution as well as few other pet projects in my spare time.
Aside from writing really helpful articles ;) here on PS I have some non-computery hobbies such as photography, watching and playing sports and travelling. The photo above was taken in Vietnam last year although you can't really tell because of my big face in the way. :)
If you've had enough of this techie stuff already, you can check out my South East Asia Travelog and read all about our latest travel adventures in Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand. It's right here :)
You can connect with me too - there's a whole lot of different ways to connect on the left.
Cheers, Rosco
Very informative, keep posting such good articles, it really helps to know about things
Thank You! Any idea the two finger pinch/spread trackpad gesture won’t work in finder for that any more? And do you know why instead of reformatting like usual (or whatever the word) in Safari using that method is replaced by the easy reader zoom like the double tap? I hate it, I just want the text such to be larger in the same web page size/format, not the whole website so I have to move left and right..
Hi Blaine, Do you mean like CMD+ keyboard shortcut?
Very cool post. I just recently started following your blog, but I look forward to contributing more in the future.
Forever advice takes to heart. I truly take account the time you’ve taken to share your thoughts. It is an outstanding assistance, thanks so much!
in lion 10.7, it’s not available in the status bar & pinch to change icon sizes is not available too
any idea abt any solution to get it back??
That is very helpful. It provided me a few ideas and I’ll be posting them on my web site eventually. I’m bookmarking your site and I’ll be back again. Thank you again!
Wrong, showing status bar does NOT display. Where the FUCK is it.
