Build ID: 20111114042039
Steps to reproduce:
When browsing any page's "View Page Info", one finds CTRL++ is disabled.
One can only browse "View Page Info" at one single Company approved text size.
Expected results:
While you are at it do add a menu zoom item there in case one does not know about CTRL++.

View Page info is not a website, it's a dialog, much like Tools/Options is. The page zoom feature is what it is, a page zoom feature which doesn't work in *any* dialog AFAIK.

I saw some text in the box labeled Meta that I wanted to zoom at least.

Btw, Marco, why does Firefox not allow zoom feature to work on Firefox UI like dialogs. Is it area of desktop capabilities? I'm curious if it's not handy to have unified zoom in Firefox.

Well, since we have the control over all widgets, I suppose we *could* implement it. "We" being Mozilla in general. But the current Zoom feature de facto only works on website content. That's why this is rahter an enhancement request than a bug.

Dialogs sizes are supposed to be controlled by the os/desktop AIUI.

right, the same can be applicable at some precision to web content in means desktop can affect on it.
The question is how much is this feature handy/useful for user?
Severity: normal → enhancement
OS: Linux → All
Hardware: x86 → All

Another question might be: if a user zooms their desktop, should content zoom? I would guess no.

I think it should, that's part of integration with OS. Btw, Firefox doesn't do that currently but that's reverse bug to this one.
