CI

Overview

Screen magnifier system tray tool; once started, a floating window appears after clicking on the tray icon.

In the options you can set the visibility and size of the mouse cursor, whether to run the application at startup, the background and border colors of the window and if to keep it always on top. The zoom factor can be changed by using the mouse wheel over the window, from 1 to 5 times.

Dependencies

Runtime:

  • Qt5/6 base
  • X11Extras when using Qt5
  • X11 libraries

Build:

  • CMake
  • Qt Linguist Tools
  • Qtilitools CMake modules

Build

CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE is usually set to Release, though None might be a valid alternative.
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX has to be set to /usr on most operating systems.
Using sudo make install is discouraged, instead use the system package manager where possible.

cmake -B build -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -W no-dev
cmake --build build --verbose
DESTDIR="$(pwd)/package" cmake --install build
