I recently encountered a strange behavior in my Google Chrome browser.
Images appear pixelated and broken, but they appear on screenshots and get scrolled so it must be the browser and not my laptop. For example, google search:
Search icons get something like...distorted? Has anyone encountered that and maybe knows how to fix this?
Here's a work around: go to chrome://flags and disable GPU Rasterization.
You can use this link: chrome://flags/#enable-gpu-rasterization to get there.
Thanks to https://piunikaweb.com/2022/02/24/google-chrome-images-distorted-pixelated-after-latest-update-for-some/ for the tip
Same here. Not only icons but some large images as well
Ctrl+refresh seem to solve it
enter image description here
Turning off [GPU rasterization] and [hardware acceleration] is worked for me.
(Windows 10 + Chrome v101.x)
Turning off GPU rasterization
Go to chrome://flags
Select 'Disabled' right side of 'GPU rasterization'.
Restart browser.
Turning off hardware acceleration
Go to chrome://settings/system
Move switch off 'Use hardware acceleration when available'.
Restart browser.

So what confused me recently is that my chrome started appearing a black border under the bookmark bar of the browser.It happens whenever I open my chrome and maximize the window.Even restart the chrome it still appear.It looks like:
You can see the black border is too thick(just compare it with your chrome).
Only when I reduce the window size will it disappear.It looks like:
I have thought it might have something to do with CSS but I can't get any information from the dev tools.I have also turned to chrome community forum for help.Although there is someone alse who met the same problem,none of them know the cause.
Any ideas what might be causing this?Is it a bug?
Version: Google Chrome79.0.3945.79 (Official Build) m (64-bit)
OS: win10
what happens when opening another page? does it show it there?
Try changing the theme to black or another. see what results you get.
If it is related to google homepage only, then it's possibly something to do with getting viewport size and then the related scaling logic.
Does anyone else have the problem that since yesterday in Chrome the dimensions of the browserwindow aren't shown anymore?
Could this come from an Chrome Update or is it a problem only of my browser?
I find this issue to. Because I use it every day it's critical for me. This may help you:
https://gist.github.com/mrpapercut/7a004210306b62dcf813
But I think it's just a f***up and they roll back it soon.
In version 48.0.2564.116 the dimensions are shown in the page only while I am actively resizing the window with the developer tools open -- they disappear after a short delay. Version 49.0.2623.87 (current as I post this) removes this tooltip.
You can force the dimensions to be visible at all times by turning on "Device Mode" (the iPhone-looking button second from the left in the developer toolbar.)
some time ago (probably after recent update) I've noticed picture in my chrome changed a bit: everything rendered slightly upscaled and looks blurry. This issue affects everything: tabs, searchbar, bookmarks panel and of course all content in opened pages.
Here is some pic:
As you can see on screenshot, here Firefox window overlaps Chrome window, both of them shows the same page, and you can notice difference in sizes and blurriness. Do you have any ideas how to solve it?
Chrome version: 43.0.2357.130 on Kubuntu 14.04 (64-bit), it has default scale 100%. Also I found some info about similar issue on windows, but this didn't helps me, since there is no DirectWrite settings or something like that in my chrome.
Thanks.
Some more deeper search gives me a link to chromium issue, which describes my situation. And there also I found a solution for me. In brief, you just need to run next console command:
xrandr --dpi 96x96
Hope, this helps somebody.
So I was using Chrome and IE together when all of a sudden Chrome decides to change its zoom level not only for the webpage, but the entire browser. I'm not sure if it happened when I restarted Chrome or if it happened when I decided to bring it to the front. So basically, all menu items, logos, icons, absolutely everything appears to have been zoomed in slightly. I have restored to original settings, disabled extensions (I don't use any extensions anyways), uninstalled and reinstalled, and nothing.
I've used the DPI settings in the properties of the Chrome application and nothing changes it. I've changed scaling in Windows and nothing helps.
Everything is larger in Chrome now and it's driving me crazy. Many menu items won't appear fully because of this. Note that this isn't just at the webpage level but at the entire browser level. I've included some images so you can compare. If you look at the youtube homepage, you'll see that everything is larger in Chrome than it is in Internet Explorer.
Scratch that apparently I need reputation in order to post pictures, ugh. If I can get 10 rep soon I'll post some pics.
I'm sorry if my description is rather vague but this isn't something I could search up. No other programs (including IE) are having this issue. THanks very much in advance if anyone can help. This is just driving me crazy.
No, Ctrl + 0 obviously does not work. This is an issue with the program as the entire program looks zoomed in. Everything, not just the webpage.
Found a "quick fix" solution from post #38 here:
Right click on the Chrome link on your desktop
Choose Properties and then add " /high-dpi-support=1 /force-device-scale-factor=1" to the existing Link to your path to chrome.exe.
Hope this works permanently. What a hassle.
If you're experiencing a "zoomed in" browser it's because you have an updated version of Chrome. Chrome and FireFox now adjusts the page zoom level according to your Windows settings to better support high DPI displays. For example, if Windows is set to 125% font size (120dpi), the content area will be zoomed by 25%. This is usually the default setting on your computer.
This means that your updated Chrome and/or FireFox browser will automatically set websites to 125%, and all other browsers remain at 100%.
What are possible solutions?
As of this writing, their isn't a known method of fixing this from a web coding standpoint, due to that it's created from the inner workings of the browser. That being said, their are still some things you can do from the "users" side to fix this:
The quickest way around this is to open up your browser and press on your keyboard "ctrl -" (control minus) twice. This will set your website content to 75%, which would be equivalent to 100% in all other browsers (but this will just fix the website content).
You can set your computers font-size settings in your control panel to "100%". This will make all of your computer fonts smaller.
I'm sure their is a better answer to this, but for now these are the 2 options that I'm seeing. In FireFox version 22 they also added this feature (as mentioned above), you can see the work around for FireFox here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/962979
I'm sure a similar solution also exist with Chrome.
You can change your windows default zoom to 100% in display settings and make everything almost unreadable, or (a better way)
You can add a start parameter to your chrome shortcut:
"your-chrome-dir\chrome.exe" /high-dpi-support=1 /force-device-scale-factor=1
I know, it's too late, but just in case someone else has this problem...
The problem is that google chrome shows some weird vertical and horizontal lines in my website.
I think is a render problem but I'm not sure.
Google chrome version is 18.0.1025.168
You can visit the website here: http://www.plastic-data.com/hotel/
And here, the screenshoot:
And i have checked for extensions, my google chrome doesn't have any.
Mac with Chrome version 89.0.4389.90. The method #cybersholt and #Alex_J provided solved it for me (though the option is slightly different for Mac users):
Type chrome://flags in URL bar
Go to GPU rasterization (currently default).
Set to Disabled
This worked for me..!
1) Type chrome://flags in URL bar
2) Click on "Reset all to default" at the top near to "search flags".
I Hope the following steps work for you!
Follow the steps:-
1) Type chrome://flags in URL bar
2) Locate the following entry "Composited render layer borders"
3) Make sure it is set to "Enable"
4) Restart your browser and then check!!
The problem is not on the browser, neither on your website, I tested here on my installation of Google Chrome 18.0.1025.168, and no problems found as you can see on the image below:
Note:
I had that problem in the past, and was a graphic driver problem.
I believe that it is a graphic driver problem on the computer you are using!
I also had the same problem with 45° horizontal white dashed lines repeating on any website in chrome with a solid color background. It was happening on multiple computers with only using the chrome browser. #cybersholt solution fixed the problem.
1) Type chrome://flags in URL bar
2) Go to GPU rasterization MSAA sample count (which should be set to default).
3) Set to 0
had the same problem. had to Disable this:
1) Type chrome://flags in URL bar
2) Locate the following entry "Composited render layer borders".
BiG thanks for the tip!
Just ran into this issue, although I had multicolored horizontal lines instead of vertical lines like this:
One of the comments described in this post by #Cat-Friend finally fixed the issue after much searching.
To fix this issue:
Open the Settings page in Chrome (chrome://settings)
Search for hardware acceleration
Disable Hardware Acceleration
