So I have discovered that if I hold down the windows/option key, between control and alt, and scroll, my window will zoom in and out. Does anybody know if there are settings for this? My problem is that when zoomed in, it follows the mouse. I need the picture to remain still, no matter where the mouse is. Thanks.

Open CompizConfig
System menu> Preferences> CompizConfig Settings Manager--> Accessibility> Enhanced Zoom Desktop> Mouse Behaviour> uncheck the box next to 'Sync Mouse'
