Zoom Chrome Extension Welcome Guide

https://www.stefanvd.net

Turn Off the Lights is a browser extension developed by Stefan Van Damme that lets users dim everything on their screen except the video they are watching. A gray lamp icon is displayed in the browser menu bar when a video is detected; users click on the icon to make the screen surrounding the video fade. Clicking outside the video restores the rest of the screen. Users can adjust the opacity of the screen blocking and select a color other than black if desired. The extension can also be set to dim the screen automatically, and there are a variety of YouTube-specific features as well to bring an object to the front. A keyboard shortcut gives users quick access to the program's services.

How does it work?

With a single click on the Z icon on the toolbar, you will see a popup window show up. In this Zoom popup window, you can customize the zoom scale of the current website to your perfect zoom scale. Try it yourself on the example on the left-hand side.

Turn Off the Lights for Desktop

Zoom is a “pay what you want” software. I price Zoom this way because I believe that tools should be available to everyone, no matter their ability to pay.
