Overscan and Right click in Chrome


Just had a few issue I hope someone can help me with.
1) I noticed that there is some overscan is there any way to
make the image smaller
The display shows 1:1 and 1920x1080 (on touch screen display)
And when I run xrandr I get the following
Iooks like it’s displaying the correct size but just oversized by about 1 inch
root@porteus-kiosk:~# xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 32767 x 32767
DP1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
HDMI1 connected 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 930mm x 523mm
   1920x1080     60.00*+  50.00    59.94    30.00    25.00    24.00    29.97    23.98

2) I noticed with chrome that (I don’t have right click enabled) sometimes when
going through a slideshow on a web page I get a right click pop-up menu to save the
image etc. Is there a way around this

Thanks

Hello Dave,

1) Does the screen look ok when booting other linux distros like Ubuntu?

Maybe screen has 'auto adjust' button or something:

You could also experiment with xrandr commands like these:

2) You can also invoke right mouse click menu by holding the touch for 2-3 seconds. Unfortunately i'm not sure how to prevent it (Chrome is closed source) - disabling touch event is the only known methods ...

Thank you.

Thanks for your quick reply
I will try some of the setting to to see if I can reduce overscan, also yes it does overscan with ubuntu.

You mentioned disabling touch event would this just disable Gestures for Google Chrome or will it
prevent all touch commands like a single click?

" yes it does overscan with ubuntu."
I would say its a matter of adjusting monitor settings.

"You mentioned disabling touch event would this just disable Gestures for Google Chrome or will it

It would disable every touch related input making Chrome useless for the touchscreen purposes.
