maintaining zoom settings
I am using PM Atom/XP 25.5.0 on XP laptop.
I regularly visit a couple of sites that I want to zoom out on so that the images and text are smaller, but PM does not retaining (ie remember) my zoom settings on the individual pages. Is there a way of setting it so that it remembers the zoom settings on individual pages?
Also, is it possible to set the zoom on all pages to be 90%?

Re: maintaining zoom settings
There is an extension that will remember zoom settings per site. It will also allow you to set the zoom settings globally as well as for individual sites.

Thank you for the information. I will give it a try.
Is PM not suppose to remember zoom settings?

I've had NoSquint installed for so long, I don't remember.

Re: maintaining zoom settings
According to Moonchild here it is supposed to. This was in response to a question of mine in Linux, but the zoom functionality should be the same whether you're running Palemoon on Windows or Linux (I think).greyowl wrote:

Re: maintaining zoom settings
Zoom settings are remembered on a per-host basis (it's stored in the content preferences).
Please note that content preferences may not be retained if you use privacy cleaners or private browsing mode.

My zoom settings are not being remembered.
How could I correct this?

Re: maintaining zoom settings
If you're using some type of privacy cleaner, you will need to whitelist the file Moonchild mentioned (or the folder that it's stored in).

Thanks for the suggestions.
Recently, I have been using NoSquint which has been working famously.

Re: maintaining zoom settings
I thought one of the newer releases of Palemoon integrated this ability? Is that not correct?

Re: maintaining zoom settings
Pale Moon has remembered individual zoom levels for site for a very long time. It's nothing new.Skrell wrote:I thought one of the newer releases of Palemoon integrated this ability? Is that not correct?
