Anybody using Google Chrome 10.0.648.6 dev?

[Dr Lobster*]

just wondered if anybody is using the latest development build of google chrome (came out earlier this week)

if so, for some strange reason, it's not possible to enter any text in any of the fields in metropol - search or thread, it just seems to be very unresponsive.

however, metropol seems to be the only place where text entry isn't working. i'm not suggesting this is a problem with metropol, but does anybody know why this might be so i can submit a bug?

typing this in internet explorer is like going back to 1998.

update:

it seems to be the javascript which is making the clocks tick that is causing the problem.

i've stopped javascript from running on metropol and it seems ok now.

has anything changed? if not i'll report it as a bug.

Nothing has changed on the forum side. The clocks are done in canvas if that is of use.

it's strange, i'm not sure if chrome is firing some events repeatedly which it shouldn't be.

the screen grab below shows that chrome is triggering many mouseover events when something is typed (and the mouse is moved) on metropol's webpage - is this normal?

i got to the bottom of it... it's because i enabled 'GPU Accelerated Canvas 2D' in aboutflags.


works a treat now.
