Ubuntu – Chrome has gone too large after update ubuntu 14.04 ..

14.04google-chrome

Chrome has gone large in all senses – the whole window, tabs, font. See the picture below.

I tried this following suggestion on this post, but not luck fixing it.

All I did is this:

- gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface font-name 'Sans 11'
- google-chrome
- gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface font-name 'Sans 13'

Here is my return to google-chrom --version Google Chrome 43.0.2357.124

For me the following worked:

google-chrome --high-dpi-support=1 --force-device-scale-factor=1

make sure you kill all running instances of google chrome, otherwise it will just open another (broken) window ignoring the command line parameters
