Google Chrome - Zoom without changing the viewport

Maybe I overlooked something or don't know how to word my question well enough, but I was not able to find anything online about this.

I would like zoom in Chrome, without changing the viewport or the website changing at all. So, if I zoom in on a website, I can zoom in on a detail without my responsive design moving it around and scaling it to "correct" sizing.

Is there a chrome extension for this, or a way to enable such a zoom function in Chrome?

For macOS
Take webpage. Press Command and "+" button to zoom.

For Windows
Take webpage. Press and hold Ctrl button and scroll mouse wheel up.

Edit

1) Go to System Preferences->Accessibility
2) Select Zoom and Enable "Use Keyboard shortcuts to zoom"
3) Note down the shortcuts.
4) By default ⌥-⌘-= for zoom in and ⌥-⌘-- for zoom out.

Sorry, that is not what I meant though. I know how to zoom, but I don't want the page to actually change. I want a "visual" zoom, where the page doesn't change. Because with the "normal" zoom, you the webpage changes with it, if programmed well, I want to zoom in where the website stays static. – Nytrix – 2017-10-14T09:29:59.863

I never found the solution but do this:

Take a screenshot and paste it into my favorite image viewing program and zoom there.
