Chrome

As soon as I get to the office I'll look up the name of the Chrome developer extension that forces viewport changes. It's used to simulate different devices when you are building websites. It's very stable and used by thousands of people who do web design. It will allow you to toggle to desktop mode. That should give you version 1, the full bar. (And who's not a fan of full bars? :classic_biggrin:

I am presently on the desk top computer -- I can only get size -- no choice of font and color wouldn't take.  It took after I was ready to post.

 

I am rarely on this computer as it it too hard for me to sit here.

I saw this on the Dell support site for Windows 10.  It might do the trick for you.

If this works, it's probably the easiest way to make the change in Win10.  I'll post the Chrome extension instructions next.

Here's the Chrome extension I use to force different screen resolutions:

Once installed, you'll see a new button on your toolbar that activates the screen sizer. (If you don't see it, click on the menu icon - the three dots or lines on the right. It'll be under there.)

When you press the dropdown, you'll see a list of resolutions. The laptop and desktop ones should give you the full toolbar, assuming you have enough screen real estate.

For Kazu or other iPad users:

If you are using Safari, you should be able to request the desktop version of the site by pressing and holding the refresh button and then selecting "Request Desktop Site."  I don't have an iPad for testing, but it's worth a shot.

Thanks Brian.

Got the request desktop site. CC reloaded but as you can see (below), I'm still on number 2.
 

I'll close and restart the Ipad but it made no difference.

Appreciate your help.

Thank you for the information.  Not sure when I can do all this work as I just got more bad news from my doctor.

Sorry -- meant to quote this one -- mind is not working well right now.

Do you see the CSS window when you click on the CSS button? 

 

I'm making this my personal mission to get you a workable CruiseCritic display. You've answered plenty of our questions over the years and it's the least I can do.

I got the new bar installed on the tool bar.

 

I don't see a CSS button next to that "window"

Do you see the CSS up at the top right of the browser? Not the little posting box.
