You can zoom websites (or just text if you select that option) in Firefox by holding control and scrolling your mouse wheel.

This bit of info could be completely irrelevant but we're talking about zoom..

Tried that, but it seems to be per page and not global. Unless there's an about:config setting.

Edit: browser.zoom.siteSpecific Tada!

Edit: What is the default layout.css.devPixelsPerPx setting?

i need a place to VENT, when will Mozilla ever fix Copy&paste Functions? seriously i had to bloody use Chrome to do a simple job, an you wonder why Chrome is getting more market share. only reason i use firefox an thats for its Extensions. which most are in Chrome anyway that i use in Fx.

I've never had any problems with copy/paste in firefox...

i have seen some people on the Mozillazine forums saying they have had problems with it but iv'e been seeing a Bug with it for a few weeks now ( im running Firefox Nightly btw ) i also have tried the keyboard shortcut to do a C&P , still dont work :( im at whits end with firefox lately. i'd hate to Dump it coz of that but currently i have no other choice :(

I have been kinda busy lately so I hadn't had time to mess with the new click to play plugin options until now... and wow, they are great. I had been keeping plugins always on because I figured click to play would be too annoying in the long run.. but white listing specific sites through the page info/permissions window is a breeze, it's basically the same setup I have with cookies (I keep cookies until I close Firefox, then I just allow sites like neowin.net where I want to stay logged in).

anyone wanna see what this New ugly Panel looks like. go here http://msujaws.wordp.../13/were-jamun/

I think it looks very good, seems people here are freaking out about any type of change in the UI :p

The only thing I'm not a fan of is the tab strip (I like curved tabs but the curves in australis are far too "overdone" or "pronounced", but that should be easily changable with themes or a stylish script.)

Looks great to me!

i made a comment on it under the nickname of " bee " an it got removed. why they let people comment an remove there comments is beyond me. but Chrome is looking good to me right now cause i dont like that New panel at all ,

Same here, I use Chromium more and more these days.

BTW Nightly is now 24 and CSS3 Fonts related several features landed.

Is the new content UI panel in any builds other than UX? Like will it be in 22 Beta 1, 23 Aurora, or Nightly 24? Also, is there a link to 22 Beta 1 yet? Thanks!

just in UX at the moment then it will move to Nightly once its stable an complete in UX . go an try the Mozilla FTP site

i'll admit one thing, im on UX at the moment an using it, but once i move to Linux fulltime again i will move to Chrome. i still have Chrome as my default browser in windows an have had that as default for months, i dont mind the tabs, its just the New panel i dont like much at all

Update

tl;dr: Australis will be landing in Firefox 25 (week of June 24th).

The schedule we've previously been working towards was targeting landing

Australis "early" in the Firefox 24 cycle. This target was set for two

main purposes:

1) Land as soon as we met the minimal mozilla-central quality criteria,

and use the full remainder of the cycle to finish the baseline Australis

implementation.

2) Land in the first week or so in order to have a full cycle to shake

out any "unknown unknowns" that are sure to be discovered, since this is

a major UI change. A backout would be cumbersome, so we want a high

degree of confidence that we can ride the train we land in through to

release.

As the first week of the 24 cycle has approached, it's become clear that

the amount of remaining work would make landing "early in 24" unwise. If

we landed late in 24, we'd be scrambling to finish work in Aurora, and

have no margin to deal with unexpected issues.

So, instead we're going to land in the beginning of the Firefox 25

cycle, with an Australis that's more refined and polished than had been

planned to land in 24. A bit later, but it'll make for a much nicer

first impression.

If you're interested in the gory details of the revised schedule, we're

laying out new milestones at https://etherpad.mozilla.org/australis-schedule

https://mail.mozilla.org/pipermail/firefox-dev/2013-May/000405.html

doesnt surprise me, i thought this would happen

I only have one gripe about FF 21--my jumplists no longer work. (I had a long list of shortcuts in the jumplist from the pinned taskbar icon in Win7 Ultimate)...if I uninstall 21 and reinstall version 20, the jumplist comes back, but I can't add new shortcuts to the jumplist after I install version 21.

HiDPI has landed in the beta channel and still looks all kinds of wrong even if you set it to not respect the OS scaling. The fact that there is no easy way to tune the browser should make the average user happy. Ugh.

How does it look "all kinds of wrong"? It just making Firefox respect the screen DPI and render the same as any other app (Just as a higher quality vs. upscaling the backing buffer)

    • Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen expansion to bring snowy region, new updates also coming by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Capcom had a surprise waiting for Dragon's Dogma fans today in the Nintendo Direct presentation. The company revealed an expansion for the second installment with a name that should be familiar to series veterans. Coming later this year, Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen is promising a massive new region to explore, new monsters, fresh skills to learn, and more. The studio says players will be heading to the Northern region of the world, named Norgan, to find new secrets about an undying "Fallen Dragon." There will be forgotten relics that the protagonist can find to unlock fresh weapons and skills the expansion is introducing. Players will also be able to find mysterious equipment from a previous Arisen as a part of the expansion, all part of 12 Lost Rites Dungeon Challenges they must complete to gain access. In Neowin's own review, I found Dragon's Dogma 2 to be an impressive RPG when it launched back in 2024, giving the title an 8.5/10 for its class variants, companion system, and immersive exploration. "Once a prosperous region of the kingdom of Vermund, it was abandoned many years ago for reasons unknown," says Capcom about the new region. "Long has it been since any soul traveled its paths. Blanketed in heavy snow, these frigid lands are home to savage hordes and creatures of unbelievable power. Those who are capable of vanquishing such fearsome foes, or those who possess a keen eye for exploration, will find themselves rewarded with powerful relics." Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen expansion launches on October 9, 2026, with a $29.99 price tag. Ahead of the expansion release, Capcom is also planning to release two free updates to the base game. The first will land tomorrow, June 10, bringing more accessible fast travel with an Eternal Ferrystone and other quality-of-life adjustments. The second update will land sometime in August, aiming to improve frame rates, add more save slots, and bring even more community-requested adjustments. This expanded Dark Arisen edition is also launching on the Nintendo Switch 2 on the same day the content comes to PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5.
    • Classic themes are just the colors on the bar like the olden days, if you use the image themes, it does fancy transparent backgrounds and it makes the elements of the app look like they are transparent bubbles. This sample image shows what it looks like.  
    • Good point, unfortunately. NextDNS has far more filters and workarounds than uBlock, and it's easy to implement.
    • Windows 10 KB5094127 Patch Tuesday improves File Explorer search and more by Taras Buria The June 2026 Patch Tuesday updates are here, bringing mandatory patches to users with PCs enrolled in the Extended Security Update program for Windows 10. Microsoft is rolling out KB5094127, with build numbers 19045.7417 and 19044.7417. Changelog includes the following: [File Explorer] This update improves File Explorer search, including support for Chinese text, and UTF 8–encoded files without a byte order mark (BOM). Text now displays more clearly and consistently across search results, Content view, and tooltips. [Secure Boot] This update enables dynamic status reporting for Secure Boot states in Windows Security App. This update adds a new policy setting, LimitSecureBootRequiredServiceData, under Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Secure Boot. When this setting is enabled, Windows limits the Secure Boot service data it sends by suppressing the event normally sent to Microsoft. This policy is also included in the Windows Restricted Traffic Limited Functionality Baseline package. For information about the policy, see Manage connections from Windows 10 and Windows 11 operating system components to Microsoft services. With this update, Windows quality updates include additional high confidence device targeting data, increasing coverage of devices eligible to automatically receive new Secure Boot certificates. Devices receive the new certificates only after demonstrating sufficient successful update signals, maintaining a controlled and phased rollout. As for known bugs, Microsoft has the following to say: A workaround is available in the official documentation. Today's updates are available for PCs enrolled in the Extended Security Updates program only. If your PC is eligible, you can download the update from Settings > Windows Update or from the Microsoft Update Catalog here.
    • Then the solution is to not let children have easy access to smart phones or internet until they are older, not mass surveillance. Only this would require parents to do actual parenting, most likely, as with any good solution to the problem.
