Web Site Zoom In and Out - Windows vs Android (and iOS?)

dimanche 28 janvier 2018

Possibly a silly question...

When I view a web site, such as this one, on IE or Chrome on a Windows device I can zoom the text size by pressing CTRL and + (or - to zoom out). Doing that, the text sizes all increase but the frames around the page stay in place - so the page still fits the width of the screen but the text gets bigger. All good.

When I am on a pad or phone there does not appear to be an equivalent and if you use the reverse-pinch gesture to make the text bigger, it increases the width of the page and you lose a whole load of text off the sides of the screen in the process, so you end up scrolling the page left and right and up and down and all over the place.

Is there a way of increasing text size but maintaining the page proportions?

I should add that I am aware of the 'Accessibility' option in setup with the 'Text Scaling' slider on Android Chrome, however that just makes the post content larger but does not increase any of the other text on the page around it, making it very difficult to navigate around due to the widely differing font sizes displayed side by side.

Why can't they have an equivalent to the CTRL + and - zoom given that so many of us rely on pads and phones for our web browsing these days? Or perhaps they have and I've missed something obvious?
