Zooming Tab

The options in this tab let you control the default zooming behavior as they apply to all sites. You can override the zoom levels for individual sites using the Site Settings, which can be managed by left-clicking on NoSquint's status bar icon, or selecting NoSquint Site Settings from the page's context menu.

• Primary zoom method

The primary zoom method specifies the behaviour of the standard zoom adjustment shortcuts (ctrl-plus, ctrl-minus, ctrl-mousewheel). With Full Page Zoom, both images and text will be zoomed; with Text Zoom, only text is zoomed. Whichever zoom method is not set to be primary is referred to as the secondary method.

The shift key can be added to any of the shortcuts to control the secondary zoom method. For example, if the primary zoom method is set to Full Page Zoom, and ctrl-shift-plus is pressed, only text size will be increased.

• Default full page zoom level

This is the full page zoom level (affecting both images and text) which will be applied to all pages by default. A value of 100% is the standard browser zoom level without NoSquint. With NoSquint, you can override this value to be larger or smaller.

Modifying the full page zoom level when visiting a web page will override this value for that site.

• Default text-only zoom level

This is the text zoom level (affecting only text) which will be applied to all pages by default. A value of 100% is the standard zoom level without NoSquint. With NoSquint, you can override this value to be larger or smaller.

Modifying the text zoom level when visiting a web page will override this value for that site.

• Zoom increment

You can change the zoom level for a page from the View menu, by using one of the zoom shortcuts (ctrl-plus/minus or ctrl-mousewheel), or by using the optional toolbar buttons. NoSquint can remember these changes. This setting specifies what increment, in percent, to use when changing the zoom level.

• Enable zoom with ctrl-mousewheel

Selecting this option allows you to adjust the zoom level by pressing and holding the control key while moving the mousewheel up or down. If ctrl-shift-mousewheel is used, this controls the secondary zoom method.

• Show current zoom levels in status bar

Selecting this option shows the zoom levels (both full page and text zoom) in the status bar for the current web page. When hovering over the status panel, a tooltip will appear providing more information.
