yeah, that's already set.
Out of couriosity: what value did you put there and did it change "something"?
it's been 96.
I have tried something else (I believe '120', not sure why I picked that) and it improved some things and made other things worse - had me jumping from config file to config file. somehow I've achieved equilibrium with 96.
and Firefox is a demon! ended up writing userChrome.css rules but strangely Firefox-esr (68.3.0esr) seems to honor them but Firefox 71.0 seems to ignore them. (I did the magic of trying to force it to read the file, etc.)
Firefox uses GTK3, and that's a pestilence on it's own.
I am glad to see that someone else is hammering on gtk3 Nik. gtk2 was 1000% more usefull. gtk3 must be a committee design. lol.
Hi Gene! My 4 GTK applications left are "terminator" (it's 0.97, gtk2 version, on hold, as 1.xx is gtk3 and utterly broken), GIMP (can't do much about it) and DrRacket (which has a use-gtk2-switch). "Geany" was good, as long as it was GTK2, the GTK3 version is broken badly, and firefox (well ...). Guess some GNOMEs get good money for breaking things in a creative way.
