New issue 26152 by michaelhermannweber: browser action contents flicker
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=26152
Chrome Version : 4.0.223.11
In my extension, I use a browser action with a pop up containing an
iframe that hosts the actual UI implementation from another web
server.
The first time I launch chrome and click on my button, it renders
properly, with no scroll bars. After I start to mouse over my UI,
there is a period of severe flickering for several seconds. Once that
settles down, Chrome adds scroll bars to my browser action window,
effectively hiding a small strip of my UI and making it ungainly.
When my UI was a toolstrip mole, the iframe behaved correctly.
When I create a simple demo using an iframe in my pop up to host, say,
cnn.com, no scroll bars appear. So, it appears to be related to the
complexity of my UI. However, my UI does not change size during the
flickery mouse over phase.
The flicker is noticeable but not nearly as pronounced with a simple pop up
that
uses an iframe to load, say, cnn.com. I've attached this as an example.
I could provide a sample with our actual extension if I am contacted
directly by
someone on the Chrome extensions team. This will demonstrate the scroll bar
problem.
