i just got new lenovo with windows8.1, toolbar for this came with microscopic title bar size
just returned asus zenbook and bought lenovo yoga, it came with big differnce on title bar font size only on mozilla browser. when i oppened new window, icons on very top right corner (minimize, restore down, close) are microscopic. i know how to enlarge buttons itself and it work , but icons remain same size. Then i downloaded adobe flash player for live streaming. It came with toolbar on the side, which is impossible to read without magnifier. Opened Explorer to compare- everything in normal (large) font . First time i see it, is there any solution?

I have searched for some addons and themes that may be helpful to increase the size of Firefox's interface:
Some tips for changing the size of webpages:
I understand by default the size and font of Firefox's interface is not big enough to read, but it is customizable with add ons and built in features to change the look and feel. If you have any questions on how to set this up, we are happy to help.
i am not advanced user, but addons didn't resolve problem . i am assuming windows strongly forcing to use explorer
Can you attach a screenshot?
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenshot

- Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot
- Make sure that you do not exceed the maximum size of 1 MB
I'm not on Windows, so can't check if this code still works.
Add code to the userChrome.css file below the default @namespace line.
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
#titlebar-buttonbox .titlebar-button { height: 24px !important; width: 24px !important; }
The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the Firefox profile folder.
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
- Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
- Create the chrome folder (lowercase) in the <xxxxxxxx>.default profile folder if this folder doesn't exist
- Use a plain text editor like Notepad to create a (new) userChrome.css file in the chrome folder (file name is case sensitive)
- Paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the editor window
- Make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line
- Make sure that you select "All files" and not "Text files" when you save the file via "Save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css.
Otherwise Windows may add a hidden .txt file extension and you end up with a not working userChrome.css.txt file

The Yoga with the super-high-res screen? I'm not sure Firefox is ready for that one yet...
Regarding the Flash player, one Yoga 2 user's workaround was to minimize the use of Flash: How to change the size of youtube play/pause and progress bar?
may be, because i just returned ASUS Zenbook UX303LA-UB52T Touchscreen Ultrabook and bought this , i was surprized in totally different Mozilla, asus was doing just fine
