Hello

My new tab is set to About:new Tab. Before it use to retain the zoom value i last used on it e,g. 67%. but now it keeps resetting itself to 100%.

I have upgraded a few addons - maybe this has caused something. e.g. CTR, session manager

I have reset the value 67% twice now (e.g. when I am on the page) and both times the About:newtab zoom value has been rest to 100% (e.g. when I next go back to that page).

cookies are allowed on the about:new tab page.

What do I need to do to get About:new Tab to retain the 67% value when I set it.?

Thankyou

Isisombululo esikhethiwe

I don't know if CTR has effect on the number of tiles on the about:newtab page you would have to test that by temporarily disabling this extensions and possible others (i.e. if cookie try Safe Mode).


You can zoom out the about:newtab page to resize the tiles and have more tiles fit on the page.

  • View > Zoom > Zoom Out; Ctrl and -
    "Zoom Text Only" shouldn't have a tick

This will affect all elements on the page, so text get smaller as well. Make sure that only one tab with the about:newtab page is open when you change the page zoom.

Toggle the browser.newtab.preload pref to false on the about:config page in case of issues with remembering the page zoom of the about:newtab page.

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

this suggestion solved it. I did not try the safe mode.

Thankyou
