Description of the issue:
When maximized, brave allocates space for and draws the scrollbars off screen (linux, bullseye, MX). Other windows, such as term, draw scrollbars inside window space, within limits of screen space.
How can this issue be reproduced?
Using a site with page content that exceeds screen space, which requires scrollbars to be needed
Maximize the browser, see that scrollbars are not displayed. In my case, I have dual monitors. When using the left monitor, you can visibly see the scrollbar being drawn on the right screen’s space. When same site is on the right, the scrollbars are invisible (being drawn off screen). A slight pull down to keep screen just below max, but not maximized (using 95% desktop feature) scrollbars are displayed in browser correctly.
While this is going on, actual scrolling via mousewheel, tab, or arrow keys is not affected.
Expected result:
When maximized, brave should respect screen bounds.
I have a very similar issue on Arch Linux using xfce. F11 full screen works fine for me, but when maximized the scroll bar bleeds out of the screen on the right, and the top of the window bleeds out of the screen making it difficult to click tabs and the minimize/maximize/close buttons.
Using 1.31.87 Chromium: 95.0.4638.54(Official Build)(64 bit)
I have the same issue with manjaro xfce. The top, left and right parts are cut off when browser window is maximized. Scroll bar is invisible on websites. Full screen fixes the scroll bar issue.
Manjaro XFCE here - this is very noticable on a multi-monitor setup where the edge of the browser spills into the bordering monitor space and sits overtop of the edge of other windows. The irony in this case is that the “Reply” button to submit this response was nearly completely off the bottom of the screen.
Version 1.32.71 Chromium: 95.0.4638.50 (Official Build) beta (64-bit)
Just a note, Google Chrome, version 95.0.4638.54 (Official Build) (64-bit) does this exact same thing, so it might be an issue with the chrome/chromium engine.
I swapped to KDE today from XFCE and the issue resolved, with all else remaining the same. Based on the replys with the desktop environment being noted, this may be specific to XFCE
I’m having the same problem on the new MX Linux 21 Xfce, based on debian bullseye. To turn around the problem, I’m using f11 or checking the option “Use system title bar and borders” when right-clicking at the top bar of Brave window.
