I have the same problem. Windows 10 scaling is 150%. The clock appears when I zoom Brave to 80% or less. Moreover, the clock also appears if I change the Windows scaling to 100% (leaving Brave zoom at 100%).
The Clock only shows if you maximize the Browser. Theres a problem if you shrink it⌠it doesnât collapse with the picture.
My Windows 10 scaling is 100%, and the clock only appears with the Brave zoom at 80%or less.

Same problem here on my old laptop with Win 10 Home need to zoom out at 80% to let the clock appear againâŚ
Even if is not a major issue or even not an issue having a big clock on new tab is a nice featureâŚ
What about to fix it ?
Cheers guys

Hello
I have the same issue on win 10.
The clock is still there, it only disappears when I zoom above 100%
I tried with and without walpaper itâs the same thing.
I saw that the problem had been reported, juste to notice my experience if it could help the team.
Hope it will fixe.
Thanks in advance.
OS: Windows 10 Pro;
Brave version : 1.70.117;
Dimensions: 1024 x 768;
I have default zoom set to 75%, and the clock does not show up. But when I zoom out to 50% it appears in its normal location and disappears again when I zoom in.
I hope this helps.
Can I please have anyone here encountering this issue please provide the following information (if youâve already provided this information, please ignore):
- Visit https://browsersize.com/ and confirm the dimensions of your screen as well as the browser dimensions (use the numbers for however you regularly have your browser window(s) setup)
- Your zoom/scaling level in the browser â again, use the level that you would use if browsing normally
- The OS youâre using
Thank you

I just checked on my PC as I did have the clock⌠Aaaaaaaaaand itâs gone!
Current:
Browser window size: 2400 x 1120
Screen size: 2403 x 1121
I did notice the clock before, though I never us the ânew tabâ content. I recently manually upgraded to the latest version as of this post using Braveâs official repos.
Also a gripe of mine - I canât use Brave to take a screenshot of Braveâs own settings or âNew Tabâ pages. I would at least call that inconsistent or incompatible with the Brave communityâs requests for screenshots of the very same software lol
TBH, my trust in the functionality and architecture of Braveâs codebase is low and declining 
I have issues with it not opening windows properly, not showing menus, yet suggesting EVERY saved password, but only on HTTPS sites, even if theyâre on my subnet or over a VPN 
Itâs so confusing and maddening, I am considering dropping Brave and going back to Firefox, which had consistent and useful (ie, no crapto) features (Apart from the memory leaks, but I can just close it overnight. But Iâd rather have consistent functionality than buggy or inconsistent functionality lol)
Issues with dialogues not opening at the correct point in the window stack; Menus not displaying unless the main window is minimised and restored; Not suggesting to save passwords for local web servers or web servers over a VPN (i.e. sharing the same subnet or LAN segment.) and now the clock has a mind of itâs own lol
Sorry for posting negatively, but you surely must see⌠itâs mindblowingly frustrating to use and I just canât comprehend how itâs been made to be this inconsistent and so restrictive. And people still trust it with their crapto wallets
The problem appears to be caused by additional CSS code in the brave_new_tab.bundle.js file, specifically on lines 1641 to 1643. In earlier releases, this CSS rule was not included:
@media screen and (max-height: ${"700px"}) {
display: none;
}
Since the .js file cannot be modified directly, you can verify the issue with the following steps:
1 - Open the Brave Developer Console (note that this will temporarily cause your clock to disappear).
2 - Navigate to the Elements tab, press CTRL+F, and search for the word clock (no quotation marks). This will bring you to the section with the class GridItemClockârhr33i jxlOCi.
3 - On the right-hand side under the Styles pane, you will see the following CSS rule:
@media screen and (max-height: 700px) {
.jxlOCi {
display: none;
}
}
4 - To fix the issue temporarily, either:
- Change display: none; to display: block;, or
- Uncheck the display property entirely.
This will make your clock reappear, but keep in mind that the change will only persist for the current instance of the new tab.
I hope this info helps!

May be I should open a new thread, but I guess there is a general problem with scaling in Brave so I join this one.
Depending on the OS screen scaling some of the menu options are not accessible
Take a look at the following for an explanation:
Operating System: Windows 10 Pro, v22H2, (Build 19045.4894)
Screen Resolution: !920 x 1200
OS Scaling: 145 %
Browsersize Current:
Browser window size: 1327 x 685
Screen size: 1332 x 686
As you can see, global defaults (âGlobale Standardeinstellungenâ) is available under Brave Shields.
Now changing the OS screen scaling to 150 % (or higher) global defaults disappear and also canât be accessed due to the fact that there is no vertical scrolling available.
Operating System: Windows 10 Pro, v22H2, (Build 19045.4894)
Screen Resolution: !920 x 1200
OS Scaling: 150 %
Browsersize Current:
Browser window size: 1327 x 685
Screen size: 1332 x 686
Again: if this isnât the right place to discuss this issue feel free to delete or move it and I will open up a new thread. But I guess itâs a general problem with scaling in Brave so you might want to forward the additional information to the team so they can look at in one go.
And sorry for my poor English, itâs not my mother tongue âŚ
@mittern8,
Do you have any screen adjustments/scaling changes youâve made on your OS perhaps? I just tested on my Windows and macOS systems and cannot reproduce this. For me, the Shields panel stays almost the same exact size as expected regardless of what the scaling value is set to.
@Mattches
I only changed the scaling on OS level as mentioned by the usual means (Display Options) in Windows switching between 145 % and 150 %.
Browser scaling (âZoomâ) is at 100 %.
No plugins, no Add-Ons.
Intel Iris Xe Graphics
Driver version 32.0.101.6078
Intel ARC Control v1.80.5680.1 (2024/08/28)
Intel Graphics Control Center (IGCC) v1.100.5635.0 (2024/09/22)
Screen Resolution 1920x 1200
Meanwhile I posted the issue at github (and use the hiding of the taskbar as a workaround)
Current:
Browser window size: 1366 x 647
Screen size: 1369 x 647
win 10 pro 10.0.18363
100% zoom
Just wanting to update here and note that this issue has already been resolved â fix is currently in Nightly builds and will work its way down the pipeline into release shortly. Thank you everyone for reporting.
