@Wallsy said:@dhromed said:Page zooming remains a highly impractical and more often than not [i]counterproductive[/i] method of increasing page readability.Really? I can't stand how other browsers zoom some things and not others.Wallsy.When you zoom TDFTW front page in Opera, the sidebar also scales and begins to take up a lot of space -- space that is wasted because I never actually read the sidebar.Because the font also gets bigger, the amount of words per line decreases. In Opera, it decreases to an uncomfortably small number of words per line*. FFX, because it doesn't scale the sidebar, retains proper readability of the main column of text.And that's basically the negative effect of zooming. Uninteresting stuff becomes inflated (such as images, sidebars, menus) and gets in the way of reading the text -- which is why you zoomed in the first place. I never zoom to increase page size. I can see the page just fine. It's the 12px text that's hard to read across the breadth of the entire screen.I could post some screenshots of textual sites that I enjoy eading with BIG TEXT in FFX, if that's helpful. :)*) gee, dhromed, what fucking zoom level [i]do[/i] you use? [i]Well, sir, I'm on 1600*1200 and 50cm removed from my screen, so a zoom of 150-250% is quite normal.[/i]
