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 would like the text to be adjusted to fit the screen on any zoom level. Unfortunately, Adobe reader LE 2.5 (preinstalled by HTC) can not do this.
foxit can do reflow, but I am not very happy by default navigation and the absence of pinch to zoom option in it...
got it!
BSB Tweaks can do that!
bump of sorts....
I want to eliminate the need to scroll left and right on any zoomed screen with text. How to?
The term is called "Reflow"
When you are viewing a PDF documents (with text ofcourse, not scanned) go to Tools>View>Reflow
If the option is not there, try installing BSB Tweaks & enable PDF Reflow.
54. Enable Reflow in Adobe Reader LE
Make the text flow even when zoomed in with the following reg tweak.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\AdobeReaderLE.25\ EnableReflow change 0 to 1

The default action in Opera 9 after pitch to zoom over of column of text is to move that column of text to the most left of the screen. Is there a way to disable that function. I mean like pinch and zoom over a picture.
I miss my pinch and zoom on my iPhone.
Go to Regedit, HKLM/Software/Opera/Prefs/Adaptive Zoom/Default Zoom change 175 to 0.
Thanks man, it works. But now I lost double tap to zoom out or in?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
that's a very nice tip, thanks
you get one of them
I have the TMOUSA HD2, latest stock ROM. (I assume the Opera is the same in both versions. If not, this thread can be moved to the TMOUSA HD2 forum.)
Regarding the built-in Opera 9.
I think zoom used to work in it--pinch-to-zoom, I forget if I also got a zoom bar, or tap to zoom.
Now though, I see no way to zoom in it. Pinch to zoom does not work in it any more, tap or double-tap does not zoom, and I see no zoom toolbar, or zoombar, nothing of the sort.
What happened? How can I fix it?
I cannot pinpoint exactly when the problem started, to know what I might have installed or configured, that broke the Opera 9 zoom.
I have installed the latest Opera 10, just to try it out. (Not to replace Opera 9.) Might the installation of Opera 10 have broke the zoom in Opera 9? Has that happened to others?
In any case, how can I get zoom back in Opera 9? (Hopefully more than one way.) Are there registry keys I should look at, that govern the zoom functionality?
Thanks in advance.
-----------------
PS--I just looked at where both pinch-zoom and zoom bar should be enabled in the registry-
HKLM\Software\Opera\Defaults
According to how they are set, both those types of zoom should be working.
Both PinchAndZoomEnable and ZoomSliderEnable are both set to 1.
Yet, neither works. Could there be some other registry value somewhere that is interfering with the zoom functions of Opera 9?
