SandyG:
Is their a way to ZOOM the report while designing?

The report builder is nothing short of difficult to use to lay out a report as it is, but gets worse with a high res monitor.

I tied various keys and mouse wheel but nothing seems to work, so not sure if it can.

Would be super helpful if it could ;)

I don't think there is.

If you use Windows you can use Magnifier (Windows key + '+').

You can also use keyboard keys to precisely position and size objects (Ctrl + arrow key to change position; Shift + arrow key to change size of object).

There is a 2 * zoom feature. See :
 https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/lazarus/lazarus/-/commit/9faceb4e77b5e6
It is a new feature and only in Lazarus trunk.
Hint: you can copy LazReport from trunk to your installed version or then you can use trunk directly. It is very stable right now.

Very interesting, I must try it. :)

P.S.: It is working nice.

Will take a look at the 2x feature, will help a lot if it works.
