Notifications became HUGE!

**dylanious** · August 31st, 2018

Hello,

I am using Ubuntu 18.04. Recently the size of the on screen notifications suddenly changed to HUGE!

I had changed my system language to a different language and then back again. I also had enabled and then disabled screen reader from the universal access menu. I am not sure if one of these actions could have caused the problem.

Can anyone give me a clue how to change them back to normal size?

Thank you!

No, that's a forums bug.
People are looking at the thread.

As per the thread, so everyone is on the same page, you mean the notifications you would get from here:
https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-h...ations.html.en
and not some other notifications method, like what Ubuntu 16.04 and the unity desktop used, right?
Just so answers on what is what aren't off and useless.

Hi, thank you for your reply.

Yes I am referring to gnome shell notifications. I am using the default gnome desktop environment on ubuntu 18.04.

The only thoughts I have is>>> Using the gnome-tweak-tool, which should be available in the repositories (or installed already), you can adjust font sizes and scaling, along with some HiDPI scaling options.

There are also a few scaling options in the "Universal Access/Accessibility" section of the Gnome settings program.

One of those should have the setting you need to adjust.
Or try disabling all extensions using "gnome-tweak-tool" and you may need to re-login to see the changes.
