    Edit: Thanks for your reply, developer!

    I found the options, thank you.
    But why are they so hidden? You should make a shortcut to the options when you click the button in the add-on bar.

    Aside from that, all is good.

    To access the Zoom Page WE options:
    - If the Firefox menu bar is not visible, press F10 to show the menu bar.
    - On the Firefox menu bar, click on 'Tools' and then click on 'Add-ons', to show the Add-ons Manager.
    - In the Add-ons Manager, click on the 'Extensions' tab, to show a list of all installed add-ons.
    - Now click on the Zoom Page WE 'Options' button, to show the Zoom Page WE description page.
    - Now scroll to the bottom of the description page, where you will see the ‘Zoom Page WE Options’ dialog.

    To set the Default Zoom Level for all pages:
    - In the ‘Zoom Page WE Options’ dialog, click on the ‘Zoom Levels & Font Size’ tab.
    - Change the value in the ‘Default Levels (%): Full’ box from ‘100’ to your preferred default zoom level.
    - Click on the ‘Save’ button to save the option settings.

    would it be possible to add the same controls as in the "old" addon? just - + and % in the tab bar.

    Hi,
    The zoomed pages are now reset to the default zoom (for about a second) before they're zoomed again to their specified value. Please fix it!
    Note that the AutoFit Zoom is turned off & I'm using FF v56.0 x64.
    Thank you so much for your wonderful addon :)

    This problem is fixed in Zoom Page WE 6.1, which has just been released.

    A very useful add-on, helps my ageing eyes to read on a Surface screen.
    I feel the ability to set a default zoom should be part of FF out-of-the-box as it is in MS Edge, but this app nicely fills that gap.

    One weird thing is that the 'Options' and 'More' screens (available from the FF Extensions page) show the same information. I expected the 'Options' page just to show the options settings without repeating the details from the 'More' screen and vice versa. As it is now they seem to be identical.

    The 'More' link and 'Options' button in the Add-ons Manager do show the same information.

    To access the Zoom Page WE options you must scroll to the bottom of either page.

    This is a feature of Firefox and applies to all WebExtensions add-ons. It would have been more logical if the 'Options' button only showed the add-on options.

    Noticed when I'm tweeting and there is an @ to someone...I cannot spell check and the @ with the person name is blinking.

    thanks! 5.2 or 5.3 didn't do the trick. still the same issues, but what did the trick was checking full zoom only. Now it's fine.

    This issue should be fixed by Zoom Page WE 5.4.

    Zoom Page WE 5.4 has been submitted to Mozilla for review and release, which will probably take a couple of days.

    Please post again if this issue is not fixed.
