Mobile Mini screen view in full desktop Opera

Hi all
I remember being able to view a web site as it would show in a small screen as on a mobile phone. I can't remember how to do this or find out how to do it in Opera 11.51 for Windows 7.

Is this still a feature? If so, how is it selected?

Thanks WIll(UK)

I don't know if it's properly supported since v10.01, but you could modify your profile standard_menu.ini to include the handheld mode reference below for it to appear in the browser view menu or create a button:

[Browser View Common Menu]
Submenu, MI_IDM_ZOOM_50_PARENT, Zoom Menu
Submenu, DI_IDSTR_M2_FOLDER_IDX_IMAGES, Images Menu
Submenu, M_BROWSER_VIEW_MENU_STYLE, Style Menu
Submenu, MI_IDM_ENCODING_AUTOMATIC_PARENT, Encoding Menu
;Feature Mail, Submenu, M_BROWSER_MENU_BAR_MAIL, Mail Standard View Menu
Item, MI_IDM_FULLSCREENTOGGLE			= Enter fullscreen | Leave fullscreen
Item, M_BROWSER_VIEW_MENU_MEDIUM_SCREEN	= Enable mediumscreen mode | Disable mediumscreen mode
Item, M_BROWSER_VIEW_MENU_SMALL_SCREEN	= Enable handheld mode | Disable handheld mode

Thanks CraigPD

I used your button option, once I worked out I had to drag the box onto a control panel it worked a treat.

It seems strange that such a useful feature is no longer available as standard.

Cheers - Will.

As I recall the small screen option was removed from the view menu shortly after v10.50. No telling why. Glad it works for you. smile
