CTRL+0 will also reset the zoom level to default (ie 100%).

EDIT:
In Firefox, you can also click the zoom level indicator in the address bar to reset.
In Edge, you can also click the magnifying glass in the address bar and click the Reset button.*

* May also work in Chrome but I don't have it installed, so can't check.

I think it's whatever one is used to for zooming. i find it depends on the site. I normally have mine set to 120% for normal viewing but need to go up or down for individual pages  :)

Listening in what sense Dizzi?  Still seeing the two inch bar at the bottom and the half inch one at the top on the image.

There is now a "Close All Pages" button just above the bottom strip. Click on this and the damn thing goes away.

Thanks for that Keith and Dizzi.  Didn't notice that  ::)  That's certainly going to be a lot better for me anyway if not for others.

So it looks as if they are responding to criticism. Thanks for that  :)

It doesn't "stick" yet; nor does the "Toggle transcript". They apply only to the current viewing of the current image.
Looking at ALSTON in south Ribble area, ALSTEAD and DONBAVAND/DUNBABIN etc. everywhere, HOWCROFT and MARSH in Bolton and Westhoughton, PICKERING in the Whitehaven area.
