A problem with the Zoom level of a Tab
I use two Windows systems.At home Windows 7 at work Windows 10.Both have the same problem.I will link some screen shots when i get home too.
When the zoom level is under 150% of the New Tab Page and the row is one of the Top Sites bar everything is fine.
When the zoom level is at or above 150% and the Top Sites bar is at 2 rows the 2nd one is half hidden by the task bar.
I did the following.I already had opened a new tab under 150% then i increased the zoom level to 150% and above.Each new Tab which i opened has a half hidden 2nd row.
This is at 175%
This is at 150%
At 125%
- Which Edge insider version and Windows 10 version are you using?
I can't produce it no matter what I do.
Windows 10 insider build 19018
Edge insider canary Version 80.0.327.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)
screen resolution 1080p
Windows scaling is 100%I use 2 versions of Windows and Edge:
PC1
Edge DEV
Version 80.0.320.5 dev (64-bit)
Windows 10 Pro Version 1903
OS build 18362.418
Screen resolution 1600 x 900 (Recommended settings)
PC2
Edge BETA
Version 79.0.309.15 beta (32-bit)
Windows 7 Home Premium
Service Pack 1
Screen resolution 1600 x 900 (2nd PC and monitor)
I noticed the problem occurs when I use Focused,Inspirational or Custom Page layout.The only time it is not breaking is when I use informational mode.But I don’t like it.
Here are some of my tries I did.Everything is under 250%.At 250 everything disappears without the bing search bar.So the problem frame is between 150 & 245
The only times when there aren’t any problems are when Informational or Custom + Content visible are active.But as I said I don’t like those two modes.
Focused mode & Inspirational:
1.Iincreasing the zoom level to 150% drops the Top Sites bar with a few santimeters but keeps it above the task bar when opening a new page or starting the browser
2.increasing the zoom level to 175% and higher makes the Top Sites bar to become half hidden by the task bar when opening a new page or starting the browser

Headings only/Content visible on Scroll/Content Off - happens the same as above
- For me, the closest I could get to your result is on Focused layout, in that layout, at 250% zoom, the bottom row sticks to the taskbar but still not hidden by it. at 300% and again in focused mode, all the top site rows disappear and the search box is only there.
all other modes I tried are fine. I think it's because of the difference in screen resolution of me and you
