I think there's some complications due to spacing included in the font/textfields themselves; that is, we may see different results with different letters in these positions.

That said, in my own testing this looks less centered than I thought it used to be.  I tried triggering keyword search mode, which gives more freedom to force the characters on either side, and it looked off no matter what I did.

Evan, mind taking a look?  I would assume this is cross-platform.

+shrike@. He was able to center it nicely on MacOS. Maybe he has an idea? :-)

I can't provide much help on the Views side with this. I also wonder if, as pkasting@ suggests, the spacing may vary as the letters change.

Adjust position of separator in location bar.

The separator is positioned based on the layout of the label. Previously
we forgot to account for the width of the separator when laying out the
label, so in effect the label was 1dip too wide and the separator was
1dip too far to the right.

This only affects DSFs <2.

Hello estade@.

I noticed, that the separator is still not centered between label and text. It is still looking 1px too far to the right. I am using a Device with Windows 7 and Chrome 61. Any chance to take a look at this issue again? Thank you in advance.

Hi mehmet - can you attach a screenshot?

I am using the Windows 7 device at my work. I am at home now - only a Mac here :-) So I can grab the screenshot tomorrow and attach it here.

Additional to my last comment: It is looking the same like in my screenshot "actual" in comment#0

Attached is how my Win 10 box at home looks.  Definitely seems a bit off.

Thank you pkasting@ for the screenshot.

Please find enclosed a screencast how fine the separator is centered on macOS and the right edge of the hover-background line up precisely with the separator.

It would be nice to have this on Windows too. Thank you very much in advance.

please file a new bug. This is a regression and I suspect it is a result of crrev.com/bf7e0532e34476062226eab6
