+Zlip792 MVC Posted September 26, 2013 MVC Share Posted September 26, 2013 Excellent so it should not be long for a fix. it has been so bad the last few days i have considered switching back to a released build of chrome. It took me also two days to wait till fixed version released. Now I am very happy... LOL!!! I suggest you wait more few days they will release fix for it.

Jamushroom Veteran Posted September 26, 2013 Veteran Share Posted September 26, 2013 Is it possible to get rid of this black bar again in the new Chrome? I was using the "Instant Extended API" before the latest Chrome update and it allowed me to remove that blackbar. Now it just pops back up after I searched for something. I've noticed that it changes 1 part in the url. It changes "chrome&es_sm" to "chrome&espv". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use Stylish : https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stylish/fjnbnpbmkenffdnngjfgmeleoegfcffe?hl=de Set a costum CSS for Google and you'll be fine :) For example : #topbar.blackbar { display: none; } Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamushroom Veteran Posted September 26, 2013 Veteran Share Posted September 26, 2013 Well, I've noticed it's not only adding the black bar but I'm just getting the old Google page. It's supposed to look like this: But it looks like this on my end: Odd thing is, it looked like the 1st image before the latest update :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo Berry Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 You can also try the new Google navigation layout they're beginning to roll out. No more black bar. http://googlesystem.blogspot.com/2013/09/try-googles-new-flat-logo.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more black bar. http://googlesystem.blogspot.com/2013/09/try-googles-new-flat-logo.html I think that's the fix we need! It looks exactly like the page I had before the update. I'll confirm if it works on my PC when I'm back home from my internship later today! Edit: I can confirm that this works :) Though I had to force Chrome to use Google.com instead of Google.nl, haha :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chasethebase Reporter Posted October 4, 2013 Reporter Share Posted October 4, 2013 DirectWrite support? Did Hell freeze over? :rofl: I'm glad they're finally getting around to it. Also does anyone else get the bug in the latest dev channel that if you switch tabs while a page is loading, it goes black (and thus you need to close the tab and try again)?

Have you updated to Chrome 32 dev yet? Supposedly it fixes that particular bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleNeutrino Veteran Posted October 4, 2013 Veteran Share Posted October 4, 2013 so far the Chrome 32 build is much better than the last aura build uses less resources and does have as many GUI glitches as the last Aura build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chasethebase Reporter Posted October 5, 2013 Reporter Share Posted October 5, 2013 Oh yes, another bug with the Chrome OS implementation. If you're running dual display, and minimise the browser window inside the Chrome OS frame on a smaller display, it'll attempt to maximise to the primary display's resolution, bugging it out. So on a 1440x900 display, Chrome attempts to maximise to 1920x1080. :rofl: And the black screen bug is now fixed on my machine.
