Quick tips

New Quick Tips:

Fusion:

7.  Stop Squinting! Ctrl-mousewheel will make the fonts used in text entry boxes larger. -Chad
8.  Itty Bitty 3D! Change a viewer to 3D, then turn on the 3D SubV.  Now you can put any 3D tool in that SubV, and set the main view to 2D. -Chad

3ds Max:

1.  Mouse Chase! You can truck a view so that it centers on your mouse point with the “i” key.  Interactive viewport pan I think is what the kids call it.  Nice thing is that you can do it whenever, so even if you are in the middle of a modeling operation, you can change the view, allowing you to zoom in really close, but still cover a wide area.    -Chad

We keep a running list of these tips up there between “Tools” and “About”.

    Ctrl and + still works in all browsers AFAIK. :)

    That’s only for the rendered page result. It doesn’t make the browser itself change scale. In this case, we’re changing the UI of Fusion, not the render.
