Weird display issue

I have a M1 Mac Mini 12.5.1 with 2 Dell 2415 displays. Recently the image on my displays has occasionally zoomed in. It has happened when I am working on a Keynote presentation with the Keynote window at almost full screen. Suddenly the image will enlarge so that the Keynote window spreads across both screens with about 2 in. of the window in the right display. Of course the bottom of the window is no longer accessible as you can't move a window above the tool bar. The only fix I have found is to reboot. Any suggestions?

Mac mini 2018 or later

It looks like you accidentally zoomed in the whole display.

The default way to do it is by holding down the Control key while doing a scroll up gesture. Hold down the Control key and do the scroll down gesture to zoom back out.

Thanks. It took awhile for me to succeed at your suggestion. I am not on a laptop however I do have a trackpad. The scroll up and down didn't do any thing when I used the scroll bar or the scroll on my trackball. Those are 99% of my scrolling. It wasn't until I tried the trackpad that I was successful. I must have inadvertently brushed the trackpad and failed to notice it. I will try using that for a brief magnification technique.
