How do I change the size of the tabs and shelf?

I am using the Chromebook model 5CD7219V7Y.
I have tried the ctrl -. But, that's not working! What should I do?!

Hi @carolynk

You cannot change the default size of the shelf and status panel. You can however, set it to "hide" until the cursor is on it - do this by right clicking somewhere on the shelf. A right click on a Chromebook is a two-finger tap or Alt-click. You can also remove items from the shelf if they bother you.

Also, ensure you have the best screen resolution by typing Ctrl Shift 0 - that might help if you inadvertently reset it in the past
