I usually use the zoom slider in Opera to adjust the zoom level slightly for a certain site such as this forum. As soon as I click a link the new page opens in maximum zoomed out mode however.
Is there some way that I can lock the zoom level so to say so that it will stay the same when I browse around on a certain site (or always)?
Good one, bump.

I know about opera config mode and have not found any setting there that can accomplish this. The only thing I can set from there is the "Minimum Overview Zoom" which will affect the default first zoom level for all pages I visit.
What I want to do is zoom in slightly using the zoom slider when on certain sites and then "lock" that zoom level while still on the same site. An ideal solution would be if you could have some configuration file where you could specify the "Minimum Overview Zoom" per domain you visit.
Very good would also be if Opera provided some kind of API for their browser. Then this and other similar issues would be easily fixed by the community.
Opera Mobile 10 is more slick, but a big problem I had with it was that unless Zoom was set to at least 140%, links / text in Portrait mode were too small to click on / read. The lack of adaptive zoom and zoom slider in Opera 10 didn't help either. Well not any more!
Either go into the Opera advanced settings page by typing in "opera:config" in the URL when Opera 10 is running and click on "Fonts" to change the font settings, or just stick the following lines into the "Opera.ini" file inside <Opera 10 Installed Location>\PROFILE\ directory:
Code:
[Fonts]
Form.Button=25,3,0,0,0,0,Tahoma
Form.Input=25,3,0,0,0,0,Tahoma
Form.Text=24,3,0,0,0,0,Courier New
H1=40,5,0,0,0,0,Tahoma
H2=34,5,0,0,0,0,Tahoma
H3=30,5,0,0,0,0,Tahoma
H4=26,5,0,0,0,0,Tahoma
H5=22,5,0,0,0,0,Tahoma
H6=20,5,0,0,0,0,Tahoma
Normal=25,3,0,0,0,0,Tahoma
PRE=23,3,0,0,0,0,Courier New
The 1st number in each line represents the actual font size. Adjust to your liking. The font sizes above let me navigate most websites with Default Zoom @ 100% and the text is very readable.
Note that some webpages will look more misaligned due to the larger fonts, but now at least you won't need to have zoom at 200% to be able to read the text
This probably also works for Opera 9.7 and below, but the issue isn't as important since these versions have a more useful zoom slider and proper font-size adjustment in the Settings menu whereas Opera 10 buries it in the opera:config page.
Hope this helps some of you out there.
Have you also tried to size the browser window to fit on the screen from the "opera:config"? I mean, I tried to set the default zoom to 100% instead of (I believe) 175% as is the default. Looking at a webpage I like to see it all, and THEN I decide what to zoom in on.
I read another post where the guy managed to set the zoom to 100%, I just didn't have any luck doing that on my phone! Maybe I made a mistake, don't know...
Wonder if there might be another place to type in how wide you want to see the pages in default mode...

Thanks for this info
I've got a problem that's driving me nutto. So I like to have the smallest font so that I can maximize my real-estate; I don't want to have to scroll up and down to read an email especially when I have this gorgeous screen.
I know that I can change the font size via the Manila menu, however when I open outlook, the message and the email font-size is HUGE and disproportionate to the system fonts WTH?!
So in the past I know that I've been able to go to START>SETTINGS>SYSTEM>SCREEN (or something like that), and I've been able to change the font to the smallest size. This does not seem to be the case with the T-Mo HD2 default ROM.
I've combed the net hoping that there's some regkey setting to change this but I keep striking out.
Anyone know whether the screen resolution option is hidden and if so, how do I expose it?
Um, not sure if you know this (you probably do, but I just want to make sure), you can just pinch to zoom out (and in) and it will make the font quite small.
Uhm... yes, I know about pinch to zoom. This is separate from that. I'm talking about the native resolution when I'm viewing messages in my inbox which has nothing to do with pinch zoom.
Does that make sense? If not, lemme know and I can clarify
Just to clarify, when I open an email and pinch to zoom (in this case zoom in), I get the correct resolution that I want, only problem is when I let go, it bounces back to what it previously was.
HKLM\controlpanel\pen\hide change to 0, to get back screen icon in Sytem control panel
or you can goto manila settings\personalize\font to change font size.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I'm slightly confused, so when you go into an email in your inbox and zoom out, it won't stay zoomed out? (which would be very odd)
Also, when you're in an email and hit menu>view>text size is it set to smallest?
After you zoom Opera would try to snap on to a text column automatically. I really don’t like this, but couldn’t find a way to disable it. I think it might have something to do with text column wrapping to match the width of the screen for better and easier reading.
But can it be disabled? I prefer a behavior close to a normal desktop browser. I was not able to find any posts that offer a solution or even mention this.
Can anyone help?
Hi all
Can a few people do me a favour and test out the following webpage on the default browser chrome:
http://www.itv.com/thismorning/showbiz/im-a-celebrity-deadly-delivery/
Note that the text is sharp.
Now scroll down so that the nav bar is no longer visible.
Does the text turn noticeably (and very blatantly) blurry/fuzzy?
If yes then chrome has a bug?
If not then I think I may have a defective screen? Haven't really noticed it in other apps yet.
I think it goes blurry for me sometimes when it is rendering
In order to be smooth when scrolling, most browsers use low resolution images when scrolling/zooming etc, then sharpen up when you stop moving (sorry about my bad terminology). Is this what is happening in your case? When mine goes blurry, it sharpens up within a few seconds.
Mine stays blurry even after its finished loading.
I also seem to have some touch screen issues. doesn't always smoothly zoom in and out when using pinch to zoom in maps, gallery, browser etc. It's as if it doesn't recognize that there's two fingers/touch points on it constantly..
They're both actually things I've tried to ignore but can't especially when the same actions on my galaxy nexus are flawless. Thought I'd check here with others to see if it's a defective unit. It's my second already..
I noticed the blurry text only on the mobile site of twitter
Yes I have this issue too. The texts remain blurry after the webpage is resized.

Windows registry edit - fixes Chrome text/fonts blurry/thin issue
Windows Registry editing fixed the font thickness issue for me perfectly, we can tune the font thickness/darkness by calibrating FONTSMOOTHINGGAMMA value to anywhere between 150 and 190 hexadecimal( 336 to 400 decimal )
- START -> RUN -> REGEDIT
- search for FONTSMOOTHINGGAMMA by keying " Ctrl F " ( will automatically take us to CurrentUser\ControlPanel\Desktop path)
- double-click mouse on FONTSMOOTHINGGAMMA enter anything between 150 and 190 hexadecimal.(the Lower the value, the thicker the fonts.)
- close the REGEDIT tool
- LOGOFF and then LOGON
Now all the fonts are very thick & very dark in Chrome Browser.
But we must make sure that ClearType smoothing is enabled in Windows( controlPanel -> personalization -> appearance -> Effects -> ClearType smooth check [ ticked box ] )
OR alternately in RegEdit ...
FONTSMOOTHING=2
FONTSMOOTHINGTYPE=2
FONTSMOOTHINGORIENTATION=1 for LCD-screen, 0 for CRT-screen
( Note: MicrosoftClearTypeTuner minimum GAMMA value is 1000 maximum 2200 decimal, it doesn't let us tune beyond that limit, hence the Registry tweak)
