Comment (by arthuredelstein):

 Replying to [comment:12 gk]:
 > So, I tested this on my OS X testbox and I get always on a very first
 start 789x600. After New Identity 1200x600 shows up which is okay. After
 restarting I get most of the time 1200x600 but sometimes I end up with
 335[sic!]x600. I've uploaded everything for reproducing the bug:

 Thanks for testing this. I don't know why, but it seems Tor Browser builds
 the chrome window differently on first launch, before a profile has been
 created. Also, weirdly, while I could see the same first-launch window
 sizing behavior using your TorBrowser.app build, I couldn't reproduce it
 with my own tor-browser.git `./mach build`. I was able to experiment by
 editing the browser.js inside your TorBrowser.app and find a way to
 accommodate both modes of building the window.

 Also I now realize I don't need to use the flex attribute at all, so that
 simplifies things a little further.

 Here is the new version. I have tested on OS X and Linux, but not Windows
 yet:
