Nosquint Plus v56: lost "settings" icon

Post by DSperber »

Just noticed this, following upgrade of Nosquint Plus add-on from v54 to v56.

There is no longer the fourth icon button for "settings". There are only the three zoom-in, zoom-out, and zoom-reset. The crucial "settings" button has disappeared.

Generally I only change the default web site magnification to 100% (from the default of 120%), and also change the zoom-per-click increment from the default of 10% to 5%. I don't customize anything else, so lacking them doesn't bother me. But no longer having even the basic settings I've mentioned is a nuisance.

Nevertheless, I'm sure it was not intended in v56 to accidentally lose the crucial fourth "settings" button.

See the user Reviews for that extension. Looks like it is a change made in that extension for "change NoSquint configs". See the comment by Anonymous user 930a12 - where he mentions contextual menu item for that feature.

There is a Support E-mail link on that page, so you might want to contact the developer of that extension for clarification.

Good heavens. Hadn't even thought to pursue that. I normally don't right-click on a page.

You're absolutely correct.Right-click on any site page produces a context menu with the old "Nosquint Plus site settings" dialog added. And of course this has the "Global settings" button on it.

Case closed. Thank you for the new info.
