Hover Zoom

About

➤ Main features:
•Hover magnification: No need to click; simply hover over an element to activate it.

•Smart detection: Works on `<img>` and `<video>` tags as well as `<a>` links pointing to image or video files (common formats like `.jpg`, `.png`, `.gif`, `.mp4`, `.webm`, etc.).

•Automatic video playback: Detected videos start automatically in the preview window, muted and looping for seamless viewing.

•Two display modes:
    1. Double size (beside): Shows the image at 200% of its original size in a window next to the cursor. The window positions itself intelligently to stay on screen.
    2. Full width (overlay): Displays the image large, overlaying the page content and taking up the width of the window.

•Full control: A simple, intuitive popup lets you toggle the extension on or off and switch modes on the fly.

•Configurable zoom factor: Adjust the magnification level directly from the popup.

•Quick Close with Escape : Just press the `Escape` key to instantly close any active preview, without needing to move your mouse.

•Lightweight and performant: Designed to have minimal impact on browsing performance by activating scripts only when necessary.


➤ How to use:
1. Click the extension icon in the toolbar to open the configuration popup.
2. Use the main switch to enable or disable the extension.
3. Choose your preferred "magnification mode":
    `Double size (beside)`: Ideal for quickly inspecting images without losing page context.
     `Full width (overlay)`: Perfect for viewing an image in greater detail.
