yeah, I think it finally broke. It looks like jQuery is throwing an error somewhere that's causing the script to fail.
I'll try update the extension soon-ish in the marketplace so you get the latest version.
you can if you install this extension -> https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/khagclindddokccfbmfmckaflngbmpon
I have no idea why this still isn't built-in. I made that when Chrome was on 5 or 6 thinking they'd eventually replace it.
I bet that my job won't let me do that.
fake edit:
Chrome Web Store
The app is currently unreachable.
This is probably because you can't install things without an admin logon. Although they did let me install Chrome for some reason
try searching for it on the marketplace. It's called "Image Properties context menu" (catchy name, I know)
I don't think you need an admin account to install extensions but I could be wrong :|
This happened to me a couple of weeks ago, to fix it I had to completely uninstall the extension from Chrome, then download it again and it worked fine.
Hmmm, same error when trying to go straight to the app store.
hmm. well here's a copy from my computer.
download the zip file and extract it. Then go to the extensions page and click the button at the top that says "Developer mode" then click "load unpacked extension". select the folder you just extracted and it should work.
HAHA, holy shit thanks for the effort. However, my work filters out that website apparently!

Not really sure where to put this (is there no Windows thread on GAF?) but I just found out about Two Finger Scroll. Holy shit this thing is amazing. Basically it fixes the bafflingly horrid scrolling of (most?) Synaptics trackpads letting you easily scroll with two fingers like you can on a Macbook. And you can customize the speed & acceleration and some other stuff.

How can I get chrome to scroll smoothly when using the middle mouse button? It currently is very juttery.
there's flag that enables smooth scrolling
type about:flags into the address bar and look for "Smooth Scrolling"
I don't know if it's available on every channel but it's been on dev for while now.

Does the new Download UI work yet?
For some reason I just want that to work.
For some reason I just want that to work.
I'm on the stable Linux version 16 and ran into quite an annoyance.
I'm a programmer and for some reason Chrome decided to not update any values for text fields in an HTML form. It just flat out refused, even after a restart. I spent an hour (yay 60 bucks!) trying to track down where in my code the bug was, but it was the fucking browser. Suffice to say I was not pleased!!!

all it seems to do is hide the download bar at the bottom of the screen.
It's been like that for months. I'm not sure what they're doing with it.

Hmmm, my question wasn't exactly clear I see. I meant scolling by keeping the middle mouse button pressed. It also seems to pause a bit when scrolling past images. It seems to be rendering thing or something.
oh, my mistake.
It's not very smooth for me either. I'm not sure if you can fix that.

I just noticed that using the scroll bar makes it scroll smoother but it hickups with pictures. Switching between ff and chrome made it really noticeable as ff scrolls silky smooth, even past images.
Edit: it seems to be a chrome thing http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Chrome/thread?tid=6ce1291db6ff8e12&hl=en
I guess we'll have to wait for a solution from google.

Guys, where is History stored? And how can I clear it? Yes, I want to keep my pr0n browsing private.
You could always go incognito mode? Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-N
History on windows is Ctrl-H, Mac Cmd-Y I think.

Extensions being disabled by default, for starters.
1. I use it at work for multiple logins on the same site. Multiple emails at the same time, they don't allow you to have two signed in at once.
2. Using someone else's computer, or a public computer. Don't need your shit/passwords/history to be found/stolen/etc.
That, too. Can't say that's a factor for me though.

I use my separate install of Canary for that.
Wish there was a way to switch YouTube accounts between two Google accounts. Sigh.
I used to use it for this too, but now with profiles I don't need to usually, unless I forget about them.
I use it when searching google for something on GAF. Google's search result page numbers are based on the 50 post per page default. If google says it's on page 3, and I click the link while logged in, it brings me to the third 100 post page instead. So I always "open in incognito window" to find the right post.

Is there an option to have a search bar on here, a la Firefox? Also, is there a greasemonkey equivalent?
ThatObviousUser
ὠαἴÏÏιÏÏÎ¿Ï Ïαá¿Ï εἶ
No, because the unified bar is better.
Greasemonkey scripts work by default in Chrome.
the search bar is the address bar and that's never changing. So no, there's no options for that.
and greasemonkey is built-in. Just load a file ending .user.js and it will install it like an extension.
I disagree, I don't find it better than having a separate search box, with all of my favorite engines a click away.
ThatObviousUser
ὠαἴÏÏιÏÏÎ¿Ï Ïαá¿Ï εἶ
All your favorite engines are two keystrokes away in Chrome. Since you have to type out your search term anyways, I find Chrome's solution much better.

Cool. Thanks guys. Also, do I need Tampermonkey? Just downloaded it. Does it add any functionality over stock Chrome .user.js file handling? Or is it just bloatware?
yup same issue
I thought it was just me. I had to do a virus scan to see if something was up with my computer >__>
Apparently we are not alone. This has come up in response.

I'm on the HTML5 test so I'm not affected.

I'm having similar problems too. If I close a tab with a video on Youtube.com it crashes.
