Seems to work fine on Linux when browser is in maximized state and set to responsive. Works same on all channels. [Screenshot%20from%202019-05-14%2010-32-50] @mmj is the browser set to restore state or maximized state? cc: @LaurenWags could you try this on macOS?

It worked fine until I started manually messing with the height and width. Then it stopped working. @mmj did you manually adjust height/width? Initial try: [27%20PM] After manually adjusting width and height to match screenshot from initial post: [48%20PM]

Initially, yes. But once it broke, I couldn’t get it right again.

Hi @mmj Apologies for the late reply. Looks like there’s an issue logged, I have added a +1 for you: https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/4384 Best, Lauren
