Look at this screen capture of a Google+ window (http://bit.ly/1HopLgD ). The bottom lines of the notifications (at the upper right) are cut in half. Is there a way to fix this?

Thanks.

P.S. when I first tried to submit this question I attempted to attach the file with the screen capture. The file attachment browser failed to respond and forced me to kill Firefox. Why are there so many bugs in a product this mature?

If you have made changes to Advanced font size settings like increasing the minimum/default font size then try the Default font size setting "16" and the Minimum font size setting "none" in case the current setting is causing this problem.

  • Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own fonts.

  • Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced: [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"

It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but to use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with text not being displayed properly.

You can look at the Default FullZoom Level or NoSquint extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.
