benmanns


Quoting LightStar,

Odd, I have been using Chrome for ages and never had an issue like that. Might be a display driver or your systems DPI settings thing.


scaling is at 100% it is all like it should be (smaller) that is 100%.
Changed it once to simulate 4K with the use of windowblinds to show users that it is very easy to have bigger buttons so that even on a small dsiplay windowblinds could be used with this slider, also i had this problem before that.
Also scaling should have no affect on windowblinds.
And if i change the slider to medium Large ... the Problem scales aswell

Reduced 63%
Original 952 x 656

 It also cant be the display driver since i update it on a regular basis also this problem existed on my previous card a GTX670 that is meanwhile replaced.
Driver is the current 347.09 i always do a clean install. 

 

Just curious, if you're running a desktop system, have you been able to try a different monitor to see if it still occurs?

I would like to support benmanns in this matter. Every skin has this chrome issue, exept the Aero skins by Stardock. It seems there is a transparent background layer which is too wide.

^yay thanks so it cant be my monitor or my system
Karma for you 

Ps: I have tried another Monitor model a 24" Samsung same problem even though i knew it would not change a thing, now i have to quickly return it before class starts or someone will be pissed not having a screen at the seat LOL
