I reproduced this issue in my Windows 10 using Chrome Stable/Canary Channel yesterday. I guess this issue may occurs in some cases (may related to something like display resolution, system locale). I knew this issue because someone tweeted this problem (https://twitter.com/GiveMeInternet/status/912340948520226817). So I guess some people have this issue too. But I can't touch my Windows 10 now (I am going outside). I will try to provide more information one day after. Thanks.

This is working as intended. The text is positioned such that the x-height (the main body of lower case letters) is vertically centered in the omnibox (address bar). Because most URLS consist of lowercase letters this results in the text appearing centered. However, the selection and the cursor must cover the entire line height of the font (see attached screenshot), which is not centered on the x-height, making the selection and cursor above center in the omnibox. Note also that this behavior is very dependent on which system font you're using so different users may see different behaviors. |
