Okay, so I have a problem which I just noticed earlier today, and its really annoying me.

Tried Googling the issue, and after a solid hour I cannot find anything either in the settings or online that can point me in the right direction.

See my normal-sized context menu:

Check the spacing between lines. Looks normal, right? Well, now check them in Chrome.

See the size of that thing? And the favourites dropdown is just as spaced out - used to only go halfway down my screen, now touches the bottom!

My zoom size is 100% as usual, and the text size hasn't been altered in any way, and checking Chrome on Cassy's netbook shows the size it SHOULD be (identical to the standard one in the first picture) so what the hell is going on?!?

Really? Unusual... wonder why Cassy's is normal sized then? Her screen ratio is smaller than normal (1024x600 - its a netbook), so wonder if that has anything to do with it?

well my chrome is telling my it's up to date at "Version 26.0.1410.43 m" (go to settings > about google chrome) so maybe Cassy's isn't? although chrome is usually really good at updating itself and all that.

My laptop's resolution is at 1366 x 768, so potentially.

Checked hers, and its up to date, same number.

I just noticed that my Chrome is the same way. Dunno why, but it's not really bothering me, sooo...meh?

Same on mine. Not bothered by it, because I don't plan on using Chrome much longer, and it doesn't mess with any functionality.

The reason is touchscreens. I use Chrome on my Iconia W700 and spacing it like that makes it easier for people using touchscreens to navigate.

What Windows version is everyone running? Windows 8 would make sense.

EDIT: Blokey appears to be on 7, so I guess that goes out the window.
