Help with Opera and Adaptive Zoom

[nerys]

I designed a "portal" page for my own use. I designed the page to be 480pixels wide

alas opera "zooms" the page and makes it too small to use.

if I set default zoom to 100 in opera:config its NO joy no change.

if I set virtual width to 480 bingo perfect

BUT now when I use LANDSCAPE mode it ENLARGES the page (which I don't want)

what can I do? I want to retain the auto zoom for browsing sites but NOT have it muck with my site DESIGNED around my phone.

when I set virtual to 480 it also stops mucking with gmail. gmail IS large enough and clean enough to use in portrait but opera "shrinks" it (it tried to make my 480 wide 800 wide virtual)

when I set virtual to 480 wide all is peachy in portrait but BLOW UP in landscape. Grrr

so is there anyway to either set different virtual for landscape and portrait OR disable virtual zoom adaptive zoom for portrait?

or to have it only use adaptive for pages LARGER than the width of my screen. this way "adaptive" pages would simply reflow to the screen (like gmail)

Sorry!
start Opera.
Click on the open end wrench in the bottom strip.
Click on Settings.
Click on Mobile view to choose or unchoose.
Fullscreen can also have an effect.

They change how a site is displayed.

Hope that helps!

had to dig up this thread to remember how to change this adaptive zoom thing. Hoping maybe there is an update.

I still have the problem where in if I set the virtual screen size to 480 (width of screen in portrait) it PROPERLY displays my pages at 100% scale the way I want it (I designed my own portal portal page)

but if I goto landscape it STILL uses 480 even though the screen is now 800 wide (landscape)

is there a way to fix this? or a way to define the virtual screen size as 1:1 so it is whatever the screen is ?
