When I open Developer tools and turn on device mode, and click any drop down on the page chrome renders options with minimum width and rest of the area as black.
I dont know what is causing this error. I tried to update my graphics card driver, but problem still exists.
After some googling, got to know that this is an issue in Chrome browser itself. Refer the following link for more info - https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=553274&q=status%3Aunconfirmed&sort=-id&colspec=ID%20Pri%20M%20Iteration%20ReleaseBlock%20Cr%20Status%20Owner%20Summary%20OS%20Modified&num=1000

I cam across this problem when i started to design websites, they look zoomed in in chrome and edge, but it is okay in firefox.
The same websites looks perfect in my friends chrome browser. So, I must have some config settings inaccurate.
Here are some snapshots--
Look in Firefox--
Look in Chrome--
Look in Edge--
Here is another example--

I did not find path in while creating shorcuts as stated in one of the comments--
This comment by #Deepak-MSFT fixed the issue. Votes to him on this.
Try to create a Shortcut for MS Edge and Google Chrome browser. Right-click on it and click on Properties. Go to the Shortcut tab. In the Target, field add /high-dpi-support=1 /force-device-scale-factor=1 after the path. Separate path and parameter with single space. Click on Apply and Close. Launch the browser from the shortcut and see whether it fix this issue or not.
The value of the field should be something like:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --disable-frame-rate-limit /high-dpi-support=1 /force-device-scale-factor=1
Also work if Chrome is launched from the "Run dialog" as:
chrome /high-dpi-support=1 /force-device-scale-factor=1
Had the same problem as you with default font size difference between Chrome and Firefox browsers and it is beacause I increased the font size in Windows 10, looks like Chrome interprets this like a general zoom increase because even the browser look is bigger now, not only the text as I intended.
Seems like a bug on Chrome side, as Firefox behaves normal and increases only the text as set in Windows.
Check the Windows font size in Settings / Ease of access / Display / Make text bigger section - there's a slider there.
My current fix is to set the default general zoom level in Chrome settings to 80%, which is a little smaller than Firefox but acceptable, probably 85% would have been perfect but I cannot set custom values.
I was testing a website with the Developer Tool of Firefox and I was facing a weird bug. Then I checked the window width with a simple console log console.log($(window).width) and I saw that the reported width in developer tools wasn't the same that javascript was detecting.
I tried than with the Google DevTools and showed width was consistent with the console log width.
Is this a Firefox bug or am I doing something wrong? Actually on a real mobile device and on Google DevTools the website works as it should, but if I test the same page on Firefox I see a bug that actually doesn't exists (and for this reason I've lost some time).
This are a couple of screenshots to better explain what I mean:
Google Chrome
Firefox
Resizing the browser window doesn't effect the JavaScript $(window).width
The problem is in the documentation for developer tools IMHO.
They don't mention a thing about the Touch Simulation changing the behavior of the rendering.
AFAIK, the Touch Simulation activates some form of "logical pixels" mode, where lengths are translated using device DPI, or perhaps DPR.
Deactivate it and see for yourself.
Does Chrome Developer tools stopped displaying preview of CSS background images? It used to display it like this:
But now it's not showing the preview image.
sometimes I just want have a look at the background-image to see how the UI effect being implemented(e.g. effect).Anyone knows how to bring it back without modifying of the chrome version? If not, please show me the official declaration for this.
Checked on Chrome Version 60.0.3112.113
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...
I'm porting over a chrome extension to Firefox and need to refactor some of the css and html. I can't figure out a way to inspect the Panel though. Is there a way to do it, or is the only way trial and error?
Currently there is no way to inspect panels as they are. An somewhat-effective workaround could be to open your panel's html file in a tab in Firefox and use the responsive design view to view the panel at the intended size:

This problem is being worked on, here is a somewhat-related bug:
