My board is way too small too. I've tried all the available methods given, but none work. I've also tried asking the administration, but they don't seem to be able to help either.
I'm seriously considering leaving RHP if I can't go back to the old ways. I don't understand why they insist upon trying to fix something that isn't broken.
@ChildeHarold saidThe analysis board is rendering too small right now.
Personally, I find the new analysis chessboard too small.
I'm assuming you are on desktop/laptop, and below the "piece bin" there is unused white space above the navigation controls, no matter what size you set your board.
@ChildeHarold saidHold fire with any more tinkering, an update is in progress to address this.
I think I know a bit about computers and browsers settings, and everything I do just
makes things worse.

Yes, the thing about the laptop is correct.
And no, there is no large empty white square; the pieces simply appear too large
under the board.
It seems as if the board should and could fill the space even further.
@ChildeHarold saidCan you send a screen shot? It could be very useful in sorting this out for you.

I'll DM you an email address?
@Russ
Yes, I'm on a laptop and I never use the analysis board. The captured pieces below the board are actually larger than the pieces on the board. That's how small my board is.
The old settings were considerably better than the new ones. I want to reject all these recent changes and go back to the old way.
@AttilaTheHorn
The analysis board just received some attention after looking at the screenshots from @ChildeHarold
The update has reverted the location of the navigation controls to below the move log (excluding mobile) and shaved off some other minor wasted space.
Having reviewed the older design working at similar lower resolution - the board is still bigger at its largest size in the old design, and that was because the spare piece "bin" at the bottom is scrolled off the screen.
An option to toggle this on and off would sort this out for you, I suspect.
@Russ
No, the board is not larger than the old design. The old design was much larger. Currently, as I said, the captured pieces are larger than the pieces on the board. That's ridiculous. That's why the old design is much better,
@AttilaTheHorn saidAs I stated above, at low resolutions, the board was bigger on the old design.

Because the spare pieces were scrolled off the screen. (This all assumes you had a large preference set for the board, of course.)
Can you send a screenshot too?
@ChildeHarold saidFurther to our email conversation, if you want to expand the board further, you can now use the new 'Expand board' option which sits below the 'invert board' & 'board options' icon - top right of the board.
It seems as if the board should and could fill the space even further.
This option is available on any board on the web site where the pieces are shown below ( for the purpose of dragging onto the board). Analysis, FEN viewer, puzzle creation, etc.
Click again to return to normal view. This choice is not persistent though, so must be clicked each time game analysis is viewed.
