body: Full details are on [https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF-28415](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF-28415,) , but in short:

* This occurs on Chrome 27, which was released today
* It is fixed in Confluence 5.1.3, Confluence 5.2, and Confluence OnDemand.
* There is a plugin you can download for older plugins just to fix this bug: [Editor Height Fix for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.atlassian.confluence.plugins.editor-height-fix "Editor Height Fix for Confluence"){#toc-hId-1844880167}

author: Ivan Tse
body: Chrome 27 is the dev and Chromium builds of Chrome right now. From what I can see, this would be a rendering issue on Chrome specifically to those builds.

I just tested this in the latest Stable (26) and everything looks to be fine there. If you need regular usage then you should switch back to a stable build of Chrome or use another browser.

body: May be fixed in Confluence 5.1.3

There is this workaround in pure css : (CONF-28415)

Under *Look and Feel \> Stylesheet* (this is for Confluence 5.1, naming may be different in earlier versions), add the following CSS:  

```
/* CONF-28415 */form.editor .editor-default,.editor-fullheight {    height: 100%;    height: auto\9; /* IE8 */}
```

body: Just upgraded to Chrome 27.0.1453.93, which is the latest stable. The edit area appears too small.


author: Jean-Pierre Chiri
body: That javascript workaround work on Chrome 27.0.1453.73 :

./... Place the following in Confluence Admin \> Look and Feel \> Custom HTML \> At end of the BODY:

```
<script>AJS.$(document).ready(function() {  if (AJS.$('#wysiwygTextarea_ifr').length > 0) {    AJS.$('#wysiwygTextarea_ifr').height(AJS.$('#rte').height());  }});</script>
```

body: hello, I am using Chrome 34.0.1847.116 m and none of the solutions works :(


author: ElizabethC
body: I just used the javascript in Confluence 5.1.2 for Chrome 28.0.1500.71 m and it worked well.


author: skjar
body: the java script worked fine. Thank you


author: Brian Jones
body: Chrome Version 28.0.1500.20 beta-m works correctly without plugins or confluence patches. This can be found in the current Chrome Beta channel <http://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel>


author: Tim Wilkes
body: JS workaround worked for me Conf 4.3, Chrome 27....94


author: Andreas
body: The edit window is full size in Chrome 27.0.1453.81 beta-m for me now. I previously had the same problem as OP.


author: Raymond Lai
body: Hey guys,

I'm on Version 27.0.1453.73 beta and the CSS workaround stopped working.

We had a server reboot yesterday, but I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it.


author: Roger Wicki
body: Same problem here with Chrome 27.0.1453.65. The workaround doesn't work for me, because we're on a ondemand instance.


author: James Bergamin
body: Same happens under Linux with this version:

\[8:25\] bento:\~% chromium --version

Chromium 26.0.1410.63  
With confluence 4.3
