Chrome tab height bug?
« on: February 27, 2020, 09:31 AM »
Hi,

a few weeks ago this started to happen: sometimes, in a maximized Chrome window, the tabs would not reach the top end of the screen. If that happens, it's possible to click 'over' a tab while trying to click on it. Nothing happens, the tab isn't activated:

If that happens I use Win+Left to make the window smaller and then Win+Up to maximize it again. That fixes it:

Did anyone else notice this? I've tried Google but didn't find anything. The issue is still there after the latest Chrome update.
Thank you.

The issue still sometimes shows up here. I'm really surprised that this thread didn't get a single reply. Am I the only one seeing this? :)
Thank you.

Well, I initially read your post but didn't recognize the issue, Chrome is only my third browser (Firefox GA and Firefox DEV are my 2 main browsers... browser-based application development and testing on the same domain but different accounts => 2 browsers is the easiest solution).
And on top of that, even if it happened, I probably wouldn't have noticed... :-[

Hehe... ok. :D Your reply inspired me to add screenshots to my first post above. And by doing that I saw that not only the tab is reduced in height but also the top of the "+" button is cut off. Weird!
Thank you.
