The developer mode shows me diff sizes on the right and on the rulers, if I load a site in the local host. E.g. if I drag my screen to 1200px (number at the side), the rules display 1300px.
So the sizes are not consistent. The rulers show the right size because that's how the site behaves according to my media queries. It is not very comfortable to check the size on the rulers, so I'm searching for a solution.
I found this one issue, but 100px difference is more than any scrollbars and it occurs only with my locally hosted pages:
Chrome developer tools window dimensions are inconsistent
PS: I use XAMPP
Maybe it is page scale? Push Ctrl + 0.

I've spent some time already searching for an answer. I know that I can increase the text size in an open file, but is there any way to increase the overall UI scaling? I have a large monitor so I can utilize multiple applications in my workflow, but the size of the application text and icons is so small that it's totally unusable.
Here is a comparison between Eclipse on the left and IntelliJ on the right on my screen:
I scaled IntelliJ on the right to be the perfect size, easily, but Eclipse on the left is way too small to effectively work with it.
I've tried removing a line indicating small text in the eclipse.ini file but that didn't change anything.
Given how poorly my search has turned up already, I assume the answer is 'no'. This leads me to ask, how is this possible? How can such a sophisticated and popular application not be able to change the UI scaling? I feel as though there must actually be a reasonable explanation because this is just plain absurd. This can't be passed off as a legitimate piece of software in this day and age without flexibility on screen size.
Thank you.
EDIT: *
I'm still unable to update the size of the UI icons. I've searched through numerous other issues going through the "-Dswt.autoScale=200" options in the elipse.ini setting but this is not working on Mac. Anyone able to assist here? Thank you!
The "Tree and Table font for views" setting in the "General > Appearance > Colors and Fonts" page of the Preferences sets the size of Project Explorer view. That entry is in the "View and Editor Folders" section.
Icons are only scaled if the display is set up as scaled by x2 or x1.5.
I am creating a dev. site to eventually replace an existing site and every time I inspect an element the body of the page shrinks down to a third of the left half of the page. It is also happening randomly with the slider where the image shows on only half the page from time to time. If I refresh the page it corrects it until I inspect an element again. It is making it impossible to work on this site and I have disabled the theme and gone to a stock theme as well as one by one disabled plugins trying to figure out what is causing this glitch and I have yet to determine what could be causing this issue. How can I fix it?
If you're using chrome dev tools (assuming the dev-tools window opens separate from chrome, not in the same window) my guess is that your device toolbar may be toggled.
Click this to turn it off, as it's used to test your site on a different screen sizes and could be shrinking your screen whenever you inspect something.
It's possible that you have your Dev tools Emulator on which helps you emulate the web page in different device sizes. Try closing the emulator by clicking on it.
Is it possible to have guidelines / indentation lines inside Google Chrome dev tools? Check attached photo.
I was looking for it for quite a long time and it's nothing there.
It would be very helpful in web development process.
I don't know of any way to display all the guidelines, but DevTools already does what you want to some extent:
Select the Elements tab.
Select and expand any element with a triangle and a vertical guideline will be displayed.
Hover over any subordinate element and a second fainter guideline will be displayed.
Here's a screen shot:
The guidelines aren't too obvious in that screen shot so I added two large red arrows to point to them, but they are easier to see on the actual screen.
I am not using any theme, so perhaps you can't see those two guidelines because of the dark theme you are using? If so, try using a different theme, or no theme at all.
I current have 3 monitors and was looking for a solution to fix the scaling between a 4K monitor and a 1080p monitor.
Most applications scale when switching monitors but Eclipse doesn't. The font is either large in 1080p or small in 4k. The zoom function sets the size for the whole application and not a single window.
Edit : I am using Eclipse Oxyen on Windows 10
I can think of two ways to go about this.
Windows 10
Customize the scaling of each monitor.
Go to Windows Settings > System > Display page.
Select the display to customize.
Scroll to the Scale and layout section.
Choose the % of the Change the size of text, apps, and other items option.
Repeat for each monitor as desired.
Eclipse IDE
Customize the CSS of themes.
Close Eclipse.
Edit the desired theme: $ECLIPSE_HOME/plugins/org.eclipse.ui.themes_XXX/css/**/*.css
Restart Eclipse.
CSS has multiple ways of specifying font size. Supposedly there is even a means to size fonts relative to screen resolution. You'll have to play with Eclipse's CSS engine to see what it supports.
The project I'm developing for recently switched to .Net4.5 and Visual Web GUI 10.0.4 and a context menu item that works in Firefox doesn't work in IE11 (our official supported' browser).
I can't post images here yet, so here's a link:
[img]http://i.imgur.com/oIEca4l.png[/img]
notice that the firefox windows has 'invoice together' while the IE window has arrows in a box, and that's it.
Here are all the properites for the menu item:
[img]http://i.imgur.com/vHB4Ak6.png[/img]
The only reference to it in the code is displaying a message box when the 'invoice together' is clicked.
I'm thinking it's an IE display issue, but I'm curious to know if anyone knows a way to fix it?
Thanks
I experienced the same or most probably very similar issue on one of several virtual machines. I have content menu on ListView control. There was no visible menu items' text and there were left and right arrow sliders on the menu.
The web site worked fine on FF, Chrome. Interesting thing was that this context menu problem was not reproduced on other virtual machines with IE11. Only on single one. IE version 11.0.9600.18053 / 11.0.24 (kb3093983) was used on all test machines.
I noticed a slight difference in font's rendering also. Font's size seems smaller.
What I did was applying back IE's default settings and restarting client's machine. This somehow fixed the context menu and font's rendering.
My self explanation is that something in "get font and render it" communication between browser and client OS went wrong. From this came wrong looking menu with sliders.
Hope this helps!
Reduce fonts size on IE, it would help.
