Hi@Jimfras,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community! I'd like to help!

 

I see you are experiencing screen display issues with the HP Chromebook.

 

I have a few recommendations 

  • Go to accessibility, and select docked magnifier.
  • Perform a Hard Reset

You can make the page you look at bigger or smaller, but keep other parts of your screen the same size.

  • Make the page bigger: Press Ctrl and +.
  • Make the page smaller: Press Ctrl and -.
  • Reset zoom: Press Ctrl + o.

Make everything on your screen bigger or smaller

 

You can make everything on your screen bigger or smaller, which includes your row of apps and tabs, by changing your screen resolution.

  • Make your screen bigger, decrease resolution: Press Ctrl + Shift and +.
  • Make your screen smaller, increase resolution: Press Ctrl + Shift and -.
  • Reset resolution: Press Ctrl + Shift + o.

Magnify your whole screen

 

To quickly magnify your entire screen, press Ctrl + Search  + m or press Ctrl + Launcher  + m.

To manage screen magnification:

  1. At the bottom right, select the time.
    • Or press Alt + Shift + s.
  2. Select Settings .
  3. At the bottom, select Advanced.
  4. In the "Accessibility" section, select Manage accessibility features.
  5. Under "Display," turn Enable fullscreen magnifier on.
  6. Choose how you want to move around the magnified screen.
    • Move around continuously: Turn Move screen continuously as mouse moves on.
    • Keep your mouse centered: Turn Move screen keeping mouse at center of screen on.
    • Move the screen when the mouse touches the edge: Turn Move screen when mouse touches edge of screen on.
  7. To choose your zoom level, next to "Fullscreen zoom level," select Down arrow .

Tips:

  • To move around, press Ctrl + Alt + Up , Down , Left , or Right . You can also press Tab to move from item to item on your screen.
  • In full screen zoom mode on your touchscreen, use 2 fingers to move around the screen.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
