      @jthewarrior7 sure, edit the run-start.sh and remove ‘-kiosk’ from the parameters

       chromium-browser -noerrdialogs -kiosk -start_maximized  --disable-infobars --app=http://localhost:$port  --ignore-certificate-errors-spki-list --ignore-ssl-errors --ignore-certificate-errors 2>/dev/null
      

      hm… looking thru the flags supported, it says all need double dash in front… so, add a dash to -maximized
      and -kiosk

        @jthewarrior7 u can also try adding the window-size parm.

        --window-size ⊗	Sets the initial window size. Provided as string in the format "800,600".

                The --start-maximized but also the --window-size does not seem to have any effect. I tried them both when opening a new chromium window via the console (chromium-browser --start-maximized, but the chromium still launches at its previously closed size and position.

                    start fullscreen removes the top bar etc. but strangely enough the size of the chromium window does not go to fullscreen.
