Re: Font on my laptop is tiny all of a sudden???

 

Thanks to Christos for the tip about zoom controls.? I immediately added it to my FireFox, and discovered that my gmail tab was at 110%, even though I have *disabled* the control-plus & -minus in my browser.? I checked some other tabs, and those were all at exactly 100%.
?
My tab was also at 100% exactly.? However, in the past, I have seen both my gmail and GIO tabs at what appears to be a larger font size--again, despite disabling the zoom functions (or so I had thought).? I chalked it up to FireFox/gmail doing whatever they please--but now I have actual evidence that I'm not nuts.
?
I commend this solution to the OP.

Metta,
Ivan

One of the reasons I prefer Firefox to the others is that it allows you to have a customizable toolbar and it can have the Zoom controls on it, so if you were using Firefox I would suggest to right-click on the toolbar and select Customize and one of the controls you can add to it is the Zoom Controls.? When added to the toolbar it looks like this:??? - | 100% | +
It's easy then to visually see right away if you're off from the 100% default, and/or zoom in or out using the mouse, besides the keyboard shortcuts.

Chrome also used to be customizable like FF in the toolbar regard but for some reason Google removed some of the customization features so not sure how one can do it in Chrome so the zoom controls will be shown in the toolbar.? Otherwise, in Chrome (& MS Edge), you can click on the menu (3 dots) and the Zoom controls will be under there, same in Opera except there click the O-menu and the zoom controls will be under there.

Cheers,
Christos
