Chromium 34 no longer uses system title bars and borders by default

[Marc Deslauriers]

Ubuntu chromium-browser packages < 34 used to default to using the system title bars and borders.

Updating to chromium-browser 34 lost the setting, and I had to manually change it back.

Perhaps the setting changed location?

How did you change it back?

[Marc Deslauriers (mdeslaur)]

Right click beside the tabs and there's an option in the menu.

Not an issue any longer, recent versions of chromium use the system title bar and borders by default.
