Reported by jeremy9...@gmail.com, Aug 22 
UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/68.0.3440.106 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
- Set the dpi to, for instance, 110 in kde settings

What is the expected behavior?
- Chrome adapt the content and it's gui to the new dpi setting

What went wrong?
- Chrome doesn't adapt to the new dpi setting at all

Does it occur on multiple sites: Yes

Is it a problem with a plugin? No 

Did this work before? N/A 

Does this work in other browsers? N/A

Chrome version: 68.0.3440.106  Channel: stable

Note that Chrome perfectly adapt to few dpi setting, for instance 120 dpi, but doesn't for almost all others.

Bug reporter: are you referring to the browser UI or the conent of webpages?

Both, the most important is the content of webpages. Note that when the dpi setting is taken onto account (eg. 120) both browser UI and when content scale properly.

Tried to test this issue on reported chrome 68.0.3440.106 using 17.10 and Kubuntu 14.04. As of now we don't have Kubuntu 18.04.1. Attaching screen-cast for reference.
Steps:
-----
1. Launched reported chrome
2. Navigated to setting changed dpi setting 
As we are observed that chrome browser changed gui to the new dpi setting with respect to dpi settings

@Reporter: Could you please check the attached screen cast and please let us know if anything missed from our end and also mention that this issue specific to Kubuntu 18.04.1. and Could you please upgrade to latest chrome beta 69.0.3497.72, 
you can download latest chrome builds here:" https://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel ". Let us know whether issue still persists.

Thanks.!

It's not the "scale" settings that I meant but the font dpi setting.

+oshima is this because we blacklist certain DPIs?

Comment 12 by jeremy9...@gmail.com, Sep 10 

For info, the Gnome setting is dconf > org.gnome.desktop.interface > text-scaling-factor
