Default

It's because of the update to Chrome 37:

Quote:
Chrome 37 with DirectWrite support for Windows now respects Windows DPI scaling. (Previous Chrome versions did not scale itself, so the OS would perform automatic scaling.)

In Chrome 37, you should get one of three things now:
- at 100% DPI scaling, everything should look just the way it used to
- at 125% DPI scaling, icons, buttons, and non-textual stuff will now be slightly larger than it used to be
- at scales above 125%, both the fonts and the graphical elements will be proportionally larger

This is the expected behavior for Chrome 37 on Windows with custom DPI settings.

Quite a few complaints about it. Not sure if I can / should do anything about it here.
