Feature request: client width customization
When browsing the web at 1920x1080 it is quite annoying to have the page spread on a width of 1920 pixels. I wrote this greasemonkey script (https://openuserjs.org/scripts/Azev/WideScreen_fixer) to fix that. However it uses CSS and JavaScript, so it works well on 90% of pages. I wonder if Mozilla dev team could add an option to about:config so users can set a custom client width. Mozilla team, please be the first to add that functionality to a desktop browser!

I was also going to mention the responsive design view, which you can call up using Ctrl+Shift+m. (That shortcut also switches out of it.) It has some limitations... For example, it is left-justified instead of centered (probably could be modified using Stylish) and it doesn't have a convenient way to add new dimensions (you have to use about:config). But it does have resizing handles to get the approximate size you want. I guess the point is, there is "something" to start from in the code for a possible future Firefox feature or an add-on author.

That isn't true: you can resize the view (resize grippy in bottom right corner) and then click the Add Preset item in the drop-down list and give it a name.

Yes, that works well for sizing by eye, but it's a little fiddly if you want very specific dimensions.

Ctrl+Shift+M won't apply for the problem here.
- If I open a new tab I will have to call it again and select the preset. I am looking for something to be set once (imagine how annoying it would be if you have to set up the layout manually everytime you open a new tab!) - It won't center to the screen, it will always be stick to top left corner.
Thanks though

Of course, I was only saying there already is code in Firefox to create an arbitrarily sized viewport that someone could use as a starting point. Please see the earlier links about how to submit a feature request and if you don't want to mention this, then never mind.
