Attached screenshot shows the extra-large chromium UI. In the screen on the left, the UI scale (from the displays control panel) is set to 1.25 and the UI scale for the screen on the right is set to 1. The UI scale setting does not seem to affect the size of chromium though - it's big even if I reset the scale to 1.0 on both screens.

The entire app looks like it's been scaled up by a factor of at least 2x, so all UI elements/fonts/images are very large. To reproduce: 1) Launch chromium Expected resuilts: Chromium uses system widget + font sizes Actual results: Chromium renders all UI elements at least 2x larger than normal. Browser version is: Version 35.0.1870.2 Ubuntu 14.04 aura (254650) This behavior happens regardless of whether I have the "UI scale" slider in the displays control panel set to 1 or some other value like 1.25. Deleting the cache + preferences from ~/.cache/chromium and ~/.config/chromium does not fix the problem.
