And, apparently, it became, maybe, fourty or so virtual pixels wider. Of course, the monitor still has the same number of pixels, so what was happening is that moving the mouse pointer to one of the edges scrolled the entire desktop slightly to reveal the extra virtual space on that side. Moving the mouse pointer to the other edge scrolled the virtual window on the desktop in the other direction, to the other side of the now-larger virtual desktop.It was a pretty cool effect, so after I had my fun I logged out and back in, and things were back to normal. But I'm wondering what keys did I hit, I looked through settings and didn't find anything relevant…Perhaps Alt-scrollwheel? That zooms the display in or out.
A possibility. What is the alternative to alt-scrollwheel for laptop with a touchpad, no mouse, and click to tap turned off. My recollection of that ungodly hour in the middle of the night is that my fingers were in the vicinity of random keys, and nowhere near the touchpad.
I did say that I looked in settings, and I looked again. In Window Manager > Keyboard I don't see any keyboard action whose description could be this. I don't see any other settings tab related to the keyboard.
