"Metro" and "Chrome" are window modes for Microsoft Windows 8. This doesn't apply to Gnome3 on Fedora. I believe that Chrome starts in the window condition it was last in: if you close Chrome in full-screen mode, that's what it starts up in next time. To prevent from Chrome starting in full-window mode, click on Chrome's top bar, other than on the tabs and buttons, to take it out of full-window mode (I don't know what this mode is called) before closing Chrome.

Pan does the same thing. It must be some > gnome3 setting. I just did the following; 1. open google chrome.  It did so using full screen. 2. I positioned & sized it at a new location. 3. then exited via the exit option in the drop down menu. 4. restarted chrome and it came up in the position & size that I left it in. uname -r: 4.15.4-300.fc27.x86_64 gnome-3.26 Google Chrome: Version 64.0.3282.186 (Official Build) (64-bit) HTH > _______________________________________________ > users mailing list -- users(a)lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send > an email to users-leave(a)lists.fedoraproject.org

By "full screen" do you mean you don't see the title bar at all? or do you mean the window is maximised?
