Hello,
Sometimes the page text is not entirely wrapped to the browser window, resulting in lines extending off screen, which is a pain.
What do you mean by "resulting in lines extending off screen"? If you mean the Dillo viewport, that is probably caused by some missing CSS feature, which we should fix too, but shouldn't happen with CSS disabled.
This can be especially visible if remote CSS is disabled, and/or you are using a portrait display. Maybe this can be partially mitigated by having zoom buttons in the toolbar. Beyond that, there are many other reasons why you might want to make the text larger or smaller, depending on the page and display configuration, accessibility needs, etc. It's not always practical to edit dillorc and restart for every page in question.
I agree.
I think one of the Dillo forks did it before. Can we just dynamically adjust the 'font_factor' setting? Any interest in this?
I think we should implement a zoom control, like on other browsers with Control + / Control -. Here is an issue on this topic: https://github.com/dillo-browser/dillo/issues/21 I have a patch that implements it by adding a zoom factor that changes with Ctrl + and Ctrl -, but it doesn't work well in some cases. Notice that the font_factor is not the same as "zooming" all elements. For example, if you load the old website and try to zoom with Ctrl +, the top image is not scaled accordingly: $ dillo https://dillo-browser.github.io/old/index.html Here is the branch[1] and patch[2]: [1]:https://github.com/dillo-browser/dillo/compare/zoom-control [2]:https://github.com/dillo-browser/dillo/commit/bfa6dfae82887ba51749cf4b713a75... I think it would made more sense to scale the complete page, and not only the font, but that would require a bit more work. We would need this anyway to implement proper DPI scaling. Rodrigo.
