Resize svg image as background in chrome browser

I am using svg image as background and I am stretching SVG image through background-size. I want it to be strech only width wise. Its working perfectly fine in firefox, IE9 + but chrome. Please suggest me how i can achieve it.

.homecallouts ul li {
background-image: url('blue_arow_callout.svg');
background-size: 100% 100%;
width: 21%;
height: 42px;

see the jsbin code http://jsbin.com/uvijuc/4/

Maybe adding preserveAspectRatio="none" to open tag in the SVG file could help?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- Generator: Adobe Illustrator 16.0.4, SVG Export Plug-In . SVG Version: 6.00 Build 0)  -->
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">
<svg version="1.1" id="Layer_1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" x="0px" y="0px"
     width="282.05px" height="61.974px" viewBox="286.287 26.514 282.05 61.974" enable-background="new 286.287 26.514 282.05 61.974"
     xml:space="preserve" preserveAspectRatio="none">
<polygon fill="#0063AF" points="538.337,26.514 286.287,26.514 316.287,57.5 286.287,88.488 538.337,88.488 568.337,57.5 "/>
</svg>

I do not have enough reputation to upvote or comment, so only answering it again will work. I solved a similar case by just adding preserveAspectRatio="none".

It's a Chrome bug. Regression, in fact.

Don't use background-size. What you need to do is have the following values for width, height and preserveAspectRatio in your SVG file.

<svg width="100%" height="100%" preserveAspectRatio="xMidYMid slice" viewBox="..." />

Note that in order for this to work, your SVG needs to have a valid viewBox as well. Which it does appear to do.

I think technically chrome is correct on this one, you need to adjust your background-size values to what you actually want. Keeping them at 100% is forcing the aspect ratio to remain constant.
