Font size

[James king]

I have my fount size set to huge.
What I want is to stop moving right and left when I read.
I turn my phone and the screen is wider but the word stay the same size. So I still have to move right and left to read a sentence.
I do not want to put glasses on every time I want read something long.
I want another option other that rotate or don't rotate. How about rotate and zoom so that the with does not change
Read with no glasses and no moving from right to left.

Hi @James king and welcome to Android Forums

Are you referring to viewing Android Forums in your phone's browser, the Android Forums app, or something else entirely?

I am referring to veiwing web pages.
When a web page comes up in vertical the words are in a font size of 8 maybe and use the length of the page to size when to start a new line. Then I zoom in and the words move to the right so I have to slide the screen to read a sentence. If I turn my phone the length increases so the number of words increase. So I still have to zoom in and slide the screen.
What I am suggesting is a new option added to auto rotate or don't rotate. This new option would rotate and zoom. Which would zoom the vertical page to fit on the horizontal page with out resizeing the line length. So that the size 8 fount is now size 11 and I can now read with out moveing screen.
Not sure what the fount size is or the zoom percent is but thats what programmers are for.

Okay so you're talking about web pages in general, and not specifically androidforums.com? I ask because this subforum you posted in, Suggestion Box and Feedback, is specifically for feedback/issues related to AndroidForums.com. We don't create browsers here - but we can hopefully help you find some information that might help.

To start with, what device are you using?

If I may?

Dolphin Browser still supports text reflow, with zoom.









No left-right sliding to read required for most websites.

I am using CMBrowser and it also supports text flow and resizing.

I just flip it over to landscape, spread it to view the whole page, and scroll down like on my PC.

that is, if I am forced to use a phone to browse the internet with..... which is something I abhor like a bad dream.

CM Browser - advertises itself as secure - comes from a known purveyor of snake oil that actually built part of its user base with a malware campaign on the web.

Friends don't let friends use Cheetah Mobile.

I am using a nexus 6
It looks like the pictures of the dolphin browser is what I am looking for. The first picture turned to make the third picture. Now to look up dolphin browser and read about it. It might be what I need if it works on nexus 6.

Pinch and unpinch to zoom - let us know if it works out for you.
