When maximized, brave does not respect screen bounds

Browser Support Desktop Support
21

Workaround:

  • Tested on Operating System(s): debian 9/10 and mx linux 19+
  • XFCE v4.14

TL;DR:

  • I was able to fix the issue by toggling the ‘brave://settings/appearance’->theme from “Classic” to “GTK+” (also works visa versa).
  • If I resize the window in any way I have to repeat the process of toggling the ‘theme’

Notes:

  • Seems to work regardless of configuration of ‘brave://settings/appearance’->“Use system title bar and borders”
  • There seems to be an additional bug that removes a downloaded theme from chrome store if you pick either ‘Classic’ or ‘GTK+’
  • I apologize of there is a better place to have posted this information
  • This seems to be somewhat of a duplicate of Browser out of screen in Debian

Best regards / Hope this helps
