Collections and zoom
- Jan 16, 2020
msekmfb1 Thanks for the feedback. Collections PM here! I sent your feedback and screenshots to the dev team. We have a temporary solution in the works which should be coming in the next few Canary builds. That should give you access to the selection checkboxes when your edge://settings zoom is set to >100%. We have more work planned in the future to better optimize that experience as well.
Thanks for using Collections, and sending us feedback!

an Important update to this ![]()
they have changed things, now Collections panel handles high zoom levels better. actually it can handle zoom levels as high as 150% and even on higher levels like 175%, it still gives you the ability to use all the options and buttons.
Microsoft Edge Version 82.0.439.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)
the changes Will come to lower channels in time
p.s there is only one problem now, the "copy" button on the gray bar at top of the collections panel doesn't scroll to the left/right, it still stays hidden on higher zoom levels.
HotCakeX(upd: didn't read the p.s.) But you still haven't the buttons for selected items:
The default 100% scale:
The scrollbars is not a solution, it's very uncomfortable scroll them each time to get the checkbox.
I was thinking about the way to fix it myself and managed to open the panel devtools and change body -webkit-transform to value leading to the default scale, but there's the shade webpanel DOM isn't accessible through extensions and there's no way to get exact page zoom when the system's DPI scaling is not 100%. I think the best way to Microsoft to do this is just disabling the scaling for that panel.

Hello, any update on this?
I'm can't use collections because of this, I see scrollbars, but it very very uncomfortable.
I could open DevTools for the Collections frame a few months ago from right-click context menu (now it doesn't show "Inspect") and managed to fix this issue by setting "max-width" to 100% for collection cards, but it was a temporary change and did not survive browser restart, can you do something similar?
