      I also tried using the zoom setting yesterday, both in in the main configuration (under the ip address whitelist) and inside of various modules. I saw no change to the size of anything, and I tried values from 10.0 to 0.1. Not sure of the proper format, i used both zoom: ‘0.5’, and zoom: 0.5,.

      Not sure if it makes a difference but I am running mine serveronly on a Pi3 and viewing on a web page on a Pi0.

        you can change it in css/custom.css file

         body {
         	zoom: 75%;
         }
        

        I didn’t find why the config file value is not taken in consideration. I assume something is overwriting this value.

          I set the zoom on 0.25 for a test, this worked. But thats much to small… I want to set it back to 1.0, but this doesn’t work anymore. The font keeps small. Changing the css/custom.css doesnt work for me too. Any Idea?

            Ok, got same problem…
            Connecting the keyboard and hitting Ctrl+0 to reset zoom seemed to work.
            Seems that zoom value is being cached somewhere…

              Same issue here. It was fine before the latest update.

                Try using @FredSWG fix above. The custom.css works great for me.

                  Can’t do that. I have 2 set of config; day and night.

                  On day time, it would display all those weather, calendar, news feed and 3 clocks. Zoom is set to 2.
                  On night time, it would only show 1 clock, with zoom set to 6.

                  So the custom.css fix can’t be used or I have to create a separate custom.css.

                    Thanks a lot for this. I am currently in setup, so I still have a Keyboard connected and this did the trick.
