How to change title bar size - MacBook Pro Yosemite

I just upgraded to a 2015 MacBook Pro, and the title bar size is annoyingly large. Is there a way to decrease the title bar size for every single application (from internet browser to MS Word)? I can easily change the window size, but the title bar remains large.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)

When you change the screen resolution, what does that do overall?


Since I've an older (Late 2012 Mini i7 quad) running its original OS X 10.9(.5)

and a 20-inch aluminum Apple Cinema display, the native resolution is small

items on a large expanse. Settings in the 'system preferences' may help you.


The default screen resolution should be like a wide-angle effect with large field.


If somehow it seems oddly out of place, contact the seller; see if another of

the same model build year has the same appearance.


{If you just bought the unit, and did so from an official Apple Store, you have

14-days to make up your mind to return it. Contact them before the 14-days...

but if you bought from an independent authorized reseller, they don't follow the

official Apple Store (+online Apple) courtesy, but may work w/ you on exchange.}


The system-wide preference settings, including 'accessibility' are your choices.

In applications, such as a browser, settings do not usually affect the main window

where Finder and the user desktop live.


Good luck in this matter! 🙂

PS:


Sometimes a reset may help if resolution is an issue, should not be one in a new Mac.

The NVRAM may hold some resolution errors, so a reset may help.

The unit should be returned to the seller for evaluation, if you bought from Apple directly

(online or in their official store) consider a return if less than 14-days have transpired from

the date of original purchase.


Good luck! 🙂
