How to adjust Brave browser's address bar to increase its size?

  • 772

I have not been able to find out how to make BRAVE browser's address bar bigger.

Currently it's very small. Increasing the size of fonts doesn't increase the size of the address bar font.

  1. In Brave, use the Hamburger menu top right and select Settings.

    In Settings > Appearance select Use wide address bar.

  2. You need to add scaling factor to how brave is being launched each time. Find this file:

     /usr/share/applications/google-chrome.desktop

    inside it search for

    Exec=/usr/bin/google-chrome-stable %U

    change it to

    Exec=/usr/bin/google-chrome-stable --force-device-scale-factor=n %U

    where n is the scaling factor

    TIP:

    Best way to find files is to :

    sudo apt install locate

    then

    sudo updatedb

    and finally

    locate filename
