Default Viewing webpages question.
I never have the problem here but when I'm on certain sites especially forums the page extends a lot further to the right then my screen. So I have to scroll horizontally also.
Or I have to shrink the page but the writing is extremely small and you can't read it.

I'm using a 24" monitor at 1920 x 1080 so I'm thinking maybe there is a setting I can change somewhere.

Here is a screenshot of CF for instance with no zoom.
Is there a setting in chrome that I can change to avoid this.

That only happens to me when someone posts up pictures in a horizontal line and their combined length goes past my normal resolution. It also happens when someone posts up an extremely large image and I click on the yellow bar at the top of the image to view it in its full size.

I don't think that there is any setting that you can change to overcome that.

[edit] Never mind. I must've been having problems when I thought I was being blocked. I just clicked on that link and I got to that thread. Nope, it's not happening for me. Screen resolution of 1920 X 1080 here. [/edit]

Yupp you're right. In FF or IE I can zoom in 5x and it doesn't go past the right side of my monitor.
FF does like a word wrap and I just get a longer vertical paragraph like I want.

fukking chrome!

WTF!



Now I definitely have to find out what the issue is.
Maybe vidcard related.
