Hover to zoom in on text and colours on Mac

With Hover Text on your Mac, you can hold the pointer over text you’re reading to view a larger version of it. Or use Hover Typing to display a larger, editable version of text as you type it. You can also use Hover Colour to display a larger version of colours in text you’re reading, as well as other onscreen items like app icons.

The Calendar app is open on the desktop and the pointer is held over a calendar event. A large version of the text in the event is displayed.

Show a larger version of text, colours or typing

On your Mac, choose Apple menu > System Settings, click Accessibility in the sidebar, then click Hover Text. (You may need to scroll down.)
Open Hover Text settings for me
Do any of the following:
- View a larger version of text: Turn on Hover Text. Move the pointer over text on the screen, then press and hold the Command key to display a larger version of the text.
  Tip: You can have the Hover Text window automatically displayed when you move the pointer over text without needing to press and hold a key every time. Choose Apple menu > System Settings, click Accessibility in the sidebar, then click Hover Text (you may need to scroll down). Click next to Hover Text, then turn on “Triple-press modifier to set activation lock”. To turn activation lock on or off, quickly press the Command key three times.
- Identify colours on the screen: Turn on Hover Colour. Move the pointer over a colour on the screen, then press and hold the Control key to get the name of onscreen colours and see a sample of the colour.
- View a larger version of your typing: Turn on Hover Typing. As you type in a text field, a larger version of what you’re typing is displayed. To temporarily hide the Hover Typing window, press the Esc (Escape) key.

You can change where the Hover Typing window appears. Choose Apple menu > System Settings, click Accessibility in the sidebar, then click Hover Text (you may need to scroll down). Click next to Hover Typing, click the Text-Entry Location pop-up menu, then choose a location.

You can also change the key you press to turn on Hover Colour and activation lock. Click the Activation modifier pop-up menu, then choose another key.

Customise Hover Text, Hover Colour or Hover Typing

On your Mac, choose Apple menu > System Settings, click Accessibility in the sidebar, then click Hover Text. (You may need to scroll down.)
Open Hover Text settings for me
Click next to Hover Text, Hover Colour, or Hover Typing, then customise any of the following:
- Appearance: Choose the size, font and colour of the text in the Hover Text, Hover Colour or Hover Typing window, or choose the colours for the window itself.
- Element-highlight colour: Choose a colour to outline the text or text field you’re hovering over.
