-When using the the option "toggle device scrollbar" in the Chrome inspector, whenever you type a new width / height the window zoom adjusts for that width/height automatically. This is incredibly frustrating UI, as I don't want the zoom to adjust... ever. The only way to avoid this is by resizing the responsive window by dragging the side borders.



Is there a way to turn the auto zoom off?



My current version of chrome: Version 54.0.2840.98 (64-bit)

    It looks like the zoom triggers depending on the size of the main browser window. So if you make the main browser window larger, than the responsive window will have more space, and the zoom won't trigger as much.

I have had this issue a few times now. I'm unsure what causes it, but i've found that you can fix it by selecting "Restore to defaults" in the Toggle device toolbar menu.

to disable scala and zoom you must add this inside head tag :



<meta name="viewport" content="user-scalable=no, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, minimum-scale=1, width=device-width, height=device-height, target-densitydpi=device-dpi" />


it's not a chrome problem

Here's how I finally managed to resolve this issue in 5 steps, I hope it helps:



  1. Click "Toggle device toolbar" to bring the toolbar up
    image of toggle device toolbar icon


  2. Click the 3 dots on the right hand side of the device toolbar


image of location of 3 dots



  1. Click the option "Add device type".


  2. This will add a new dropdown to the device toolbar. From there you can select "Desktop (touch)"

  3. Problem solved.

I asked this question a long time ago, and today I noticed a change in Chrome. I am not sure when this was introduced, since I haven't used the responsive options as much, but on Version 73.0.3683.86 (Official Build) (64-bit) there's now an option called "Auto-adjust zoom", and it was checked (enabled) by default. I unchecked it, and now the zoom will no longer change when the screen is resized.



You can access this option by clicking on "100%" next to the screen size, in the responsive screen. See image below:



enter image description here

  • I noticed this same thing last night and toggling that setting did nothing. I have a feeling that this is a bug, but that the setting you mention should always work the way you've experienced. So for those that are not experiencing this bug, and just have that setting enabled, this ought to work. (Incidentally, using the steps outlined in this answer worked.)

  1. Click F12

  2. In the right, top corner, near to chrome cross sign click on "Customize and control DevTools" kebab menu.

  3. Click settings

  4. Click Preferences

  5. At the bottom, Click Restore defaults and reload

  6. Make sure that you extensions will be removed.

    Here is what worked for me:



    1. F12 (open developer tools)

    2. Ctrl + Shift + M (toggle device toolbar)

    3. Click the top right three dot menu

    4. Click Add Device Type

    5. On the top bar, A "Mobile" or "Desktop" dropdown list should appear

    6. Chances are "Mobile" is selected, switch it to "Desktop"

    The auto-zoom should now go away, when you are in responsive mode and shrink the width of the viewport/device...

        Just wanted to note that the menu mentioned above in the three dot menu in the top right of the window displaying the responsive view. It is not totally clear above, especially if you have the dev tool un-docked in their own window (screenshot above shows docked).

        I find that works initially, but the fix does not persist.

        to disable scala and zoom you must add this inside head tag :



        <meta name="viewport" content="user-scalable=no, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, minimum-scale=1, width=device-width, height=device-height, target-densitydpi=device-dpi" />


        it's not a chrome problem

        Here's how I finally managed to resolve this issue in 5 steps, I hope it helps:



        1. Click "Toggle device toolbar" to bring the toolbar up
          image of toggle device toolbar icon


        2. Click the 3 dots on the right hand side of the device toolbar


        image of location of 3 dots



        1. Click the option "Add device type".


        2. This will add a new dropdown to the device toolbar. From there you can select "Desktop (touch)"
          image of new device type dropdown


        3. Problem solved.

        I asked this question a long time ago, and today I noticed a change in Chrome. I am not sure when this was introduced, since I haven't used the responsive options as much, but on Version 73.0.3683.86 (Official Build) (64-bit) there's now an option called "Auto-adjust zoom", and it was checked (enabled) by default. I unchecked it, and now the zoom will no longer change when the screen is resized.



        You can access this option by clicking on "100%" next to the screen size, in the responsive screen. See image below:

I have a feeling that this is a bug, but that the setting you mention should always work the way you've experienced. So for those that are not experiencing this bug, and just have that setting enabled, this ought to work. (Incidentally, using the steps outlined in this answer worked.)
