title: How to FIX Chromium HiDPI Scaling:
body: <p>Tested On: Ubuntu Gnome 16.04 LTS</p>
  
  <p>I had an issues with getting my HiDPI display, 3200x1800, working correctly with Chromium. By default, Chromium supports high resolutions but does not adapt manually.</p>
  
  <p>So, I found a work-around to get it to work and wanted to share it with everyone else.</p>
  
  <h2>Here is what I did:</h2>
  
  <p>Originally searched:</p>
  
  <p><strong>$ cd / &amp;&amp; find -iname 'chromium*'</strong></p>
  
  <p>Returned a lot of results...
  If your results where anything like mine, you will see a file in:
  <strong>/etc/chromium-browser/default</strong></p>
  
  <p>Edit this file (all preference):</p>
  
  <p><strong>$ sudo nano /etc/chromium-browser/default</strong></p>
  
  <p>There is a section that has a variable for arguments to pass to the actual file being called in the <strong>/bin</strong> folder.</p>
  
  <p>It looks like:</p>
  
  <p><strong>CHROMIUM_FLAGS=””</strong></p>
  
  <p>CHANGE it to:</p>
  
  <p><strong>CHROMIUM_FLAGS=”--force-device-scale-factor=2”</strong></p>
  
  <p>Save the changes and restart Chromium. That should fix Chromium for those that want to use Chromium with a higher resolution.</p>
  
  <p>[NOTICE]
  Please keep in mind, the scaling factor takes a floating point value, so you can scale to something like 1.25 or 2.13, or whatever preference you want.</p>
  
  <p>Hope this helps.</p>
