Chrome and high DPI fail

ubersonic · 23 Mar 2015 at 14:17

So basically I'm tring to get chrome to work properly on a 125% DPI screen (15" 1080p). Using Firefox ATM for the first time in ages because Chrome simply will not respect the Windows DPI setting, I can mnaually zoom pages to 125% but that still leaves the UI too small.

Any ideas? It seems absurd that Chrome is lagging behind both FF and IE (IE for crying out loud) with a feature from a decade ago lol.

Do you mean that Chrome won't remember a default zoom percent? It can be set but you need to use Google to find out how.

No I managed to do that but it still doesn't solve the UI issue. I managed to fix the UI by adding the following to the shortcut:

/high-dpi-support=1 /force-device-scale-factor=1.25

And setting zoom back to 100%, however now text looks a little blurry.

I have problems with YouTube and Chrome. None of the controls work ie volume,pause,forward etc. Works fine on IE
