 Replying to [comment:1 Thorin]:
 > The white bars are letterboxing, that's normal. It's stepping your width
 in `200`'s and height in `100`'s to allow for the maximum real estate used
 in the inner window. In your attachment, your inner window is approx
 `1334` pixels, but your viewport height is only `1200` - so that's a
 little weird: I would have expected it to be `1300`.

 show the chrome and click new Identity, I get a new 1000x1000px window

 When TorBrowser is brought out of full screen the letterboxing should not
 be visible, bringing Torbrowser out of full screen by clicking the green
 minimize button, Does Not show the letterboxing white bars, they only
 appear when clicking the new Identity button in full screen.
