BAH! Also, I can't seem to "undo" the fonts FF 60.1 wants to use and I'll invietigate that further at some point.? So far, I am not happy with this new version. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MzK "Less is MORE."

I believe this will be fixed in a 60.1.0-6 version when RH gets around to releasing it (and Johnny gets time to build the CentOS version!). -- Matt Phelps System Administrator, Computation Facility Harvard - Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics mphelps at cfa.harvard.edu, http://www.cfa.harvard.edu

I just tried right-clicking on an image, then "Save Image As" and it worked fine. Is this because I'm using Mate and not Gnome? firefox-60.1.0-4.el7.centos.x86_64 -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com
