I Am Having A Problem With TopSitesRows

Hello...I appreciate your using Shortcuts & they are very important to me. I once had a problem of not having enough Shortcuts, but that problem has been solved.

My problem now is that the number of COLUMNS in my TopSitesRows often change, without my permission, from 6 Columns to 8. That leaves me with a lot of blank links as well as a lot of links I have visited only once & have no plans to visit again. Why can't I keep the number of COLUMNS the same like I can when I choose how many Rows when I choose TopSitesRows?

Thank you.

The number of columns on the new tab page is variable, between two and eight depending on the width/zoom of the window.

Thank you for trying to help but no, sometimes there are 6 columns when I open a new tab & other times there are 8 columns, even when I haven't made any changes to the window. What I want to do is choose how many Columns I want just like I can the Rows.

I have used the +/- Add-on hoping that might work, but all it does is increase the font size of the name of the webpage the link goes to.

Disable "Zoom text only" in settings and adjust the page zoom (Ctrl +/-) for the desired number of columns.
