control from other area seems to be carried in to firefox - cannot not now make the items on screen smaller which causes critical information unavailable for selection - like how to sign out.

Hello Karadice,

Can you please detail your query a little bit more.

If you mean that items on your screen appears larger on FF window then you can try "CTRL -" to shrink them and similarly "CTRL +" to enlarge them i.e. hold CTRL key and press Minus (-) sign to shrink them and (+) sign to enlarge them

Thank you.

If you have made changes to Advanced font settings like increasing the minimum/default font size then try the default minimum setting "none" and the default font size 16 in case the current setting is causing problems.

  • Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own fonts.

  • Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced: [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"

It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but to use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with text not being displayed properly.

You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.
