Zoom Page WE by DW-dev

Rated 4 out of 5
by oggerbolt, 2 years agoVery useful.
Some suggestions:
The address bar indicator is superfluous, we already have the tool bar button. Please add option to remove the address bar indicator. Or omit completely.
It seems impossible to set the zoom for a page
*but not its subpages*. Please add a way to set "this level" only.
Similarly, add an option please to discrimination between pages of the same level. Use case: A forum with the topic index "...path/to/forum/index.html" and the topic threads "...path/to/forum/topicNNN.html". The index is often a list of natively large headlines, while the topics have natively a smaller text. Is would be great if the index could be made smaller (for quick scanning -- more rows on the screen), while the topic threads could be enlarged for better reading. There must be many other use cases for such a feature, I'm sure.
From an information ergonomics perspective, reduce the cognitive load of the need to translate from symbols in the subsite popup menu to their meaning. A plain text menu that nobody has to learn the meanings of would be more elegant.
If I understand it correctly, the level settings are set from a loaded page. Then the text "include all descendants except for the first X levels" can be shortened to "Apply to this page and its descendants", or even "This page and descendants".
Also great would be an option for deeper levels to overwrite the settings for levels higher up. So we get an overwrite hierarchy for level-specific settings (">" means "overwrites"): deepest level > deeper level > deep level > subdomain > domain > default. (Do not set levels by fixed numbers here, only compare depths, because there are incredibly deep paths out there that would make a menu ridiculously long.)
And, a BIG THANKS for your work already done here!

- Rated 4 out of 5by Jack Bush, 2 months agoIt has a couple of flaws, but overall it's a great add to the browser.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Terry Reinhart, 2 months agoThe thing I enjoy,
When I go to an image it is fit to the page. Basically the one thing I use the app for.
The thing I hate,
When I have the browser set to full screen, my navigation bar won't drop down. I have to either press F11 or close firefox completely, which is very frustrating.
I am a photographer and I have the canon 90D, so I work with very high resolution images, all the time. If not mine, its others. Having the images fit to screen is so very convenient...
I know it is this app because all I have to do is disable the app for the full page option to work perfectly and I have my drop down menu....
It drives me nuts... - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13950413, 2 months ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by LLLLLLLllllllIIIIIiiii:::..|°|, 8 months agoThis addon is ruthless and destructive and unusable!
Developer should please correct its misbehavior:
I have tested on an old Firefox session which has several hundreds of tabs over several windows. Though after fresh start of session only few tabs are actually loaded. Yet this addon upon activating it started to hog the system's RAM like a glutton.
**Devastating result**: In Process Explorer on overall the System Commit began at 24 GB and with this addon activated it climbed and climbed to 36 GB and went on going for MORE !!
That's where I had to abort this "operation", because system RAM here is 32 GB and all became unresponsive, Firefox's windows went gray.
Luckily deactivation of addon was functioning, so Firefox survived this and OS didn't kill it.
Fellow heavy users beware! This addon will potentially kill your Firefox session !! - Rated 5 out of 5by pereira, 8 months ago
