[TIP]Change Browser Viewing Mode

I must be missing a step or entering about:debug in the wrong section.

I open the browser and it opens a google search page. In the address bar at the top I type "about:debug"

I then press the "enter" (left pointing arrow) on the pop up keyboard and it takes me no where, just re opens the same page.

I click on the 4-line graphic in the top right, select settings and see the same setting options as if I was on any other page. No "debug menu"


EDIT: I figured it out, if you are having a problem do not hit enter after entering about:debug. At that point I went directly to settings and it appeared.

Cheers!
