i have a large monitor and i have it set to high res. This makes everything small. I bring it up with no squint but this does not work on the upper menu/tool bar/control/tabs or their drop down menus, leaving me squinting again. There needs to be a no squint feature for this area of the browser

NoSquint changes only the web page display, not the Firefox user interface.

This is great. The only thing it doesn't do is increase the size of icons, but i can live with that. A low vision person might need more help.

You can use code to userChrome.css below the default @namespace line to increase the icons.

The customization files userChrome.css (interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the user profile folder.


@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

#nav-bar toolbarbutton > .toolbarbutton-icon {
 height: 24px!important;
 width: 24px!important;
}

#personal-bookmarks .bookmark-item > .toolbarbutton-icon {
 height: 24px!important;
 width: 24px!important;
}
