Not so fast! First of all, on my system CTRL + and CRTL - don't work. They are trying to do something else that requires some text to be selected. I have to use the View/Appearance/Zoom menu. Or, I just discovered, use the plus and minus keys *on the keypad *(with CTRL). The non-keypad keys that I always use for browser zooming are the ones that don't work. I don't know what someone without a keypad should do.
Second, the zoom steps are too large. Third, I don't see any gui settings panel, and I keep forgetting how to find it. Whenever I do, it's always by accident when I'm doing something else. This morning, no accidents! On Wednesday, July 21, 2021 at 10:11:54 AM UTC-4 Edward K.
