Hi,

I am looking for away to change the virtual size of the rendered area inside firefox, i.e. I want to tell the web page I am looking at that my scree is a different size than it actually is, without changing the resolution (font and image sizes should remain the same). I want the following behaviour: if I pick a larger size than my actual screen size I want scroll bars on the sides that allows me to pan around on the page.

Is there a way to configure firefox to do this? Perhaps using a plugin? I have been searching but haven't found anything.

Thank you for your help.

Hello,

this is called 'Responsive Design View and has been implemented a short while ago (thus, I'm not sure if it's in the final Firefox).

If the following steps don't apply to you, you may try out a Firefox Nightly Build:

  1. Go to Tools > Web Developer > Responsive Design View.
  2. You should now see a panel that allows you to select certain screen sizes.
