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%
I can't produce it no matter what I do.
Windows 10 insider build 19018

I use 2 versions of Windows and Edge:

Windows 10 Pro Version 1903
OS build 18362.418

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
Custom with and without Image of the day +
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 youHere are some of the samples.Everything is fine and dandy only in Informational mode.Those problems aren't occuring in Google Chrome
- Focused mode
The tab with Personalized news and more is hidden.Also the Top Sites bar already down with a few centimeters at 150%
At 175% and 200% the Task Manager will hide it on half.
150%175%200%
- Inspirational mode
150%175%200%
- Informational (perfectly fine at 150%/175%/200%/At 250% disapears which is normal)
200%
