chrome.tabs.captureVisibleTab is a very useful feature in the tabs API. It could conceivably be used to create an extension that customizes the thumbnails on the new tabs page, or a visualization of the user's bookmarks.
That being said, it is still not as useful as it could be. In particular, I would like to capture thumbnails of the visible tab, and it would be nice to be able to specify the scale of the image I get. It would be convenient to specify that I want to capture the tab at, for example, 50% of its original size. This would make it possible to grab only a thumbnail of the tab. What was the motivation behind captureVisibleTab, and are there any plans to extend it to give the extension more control over the image returned, by, for example, specifying the size? Also, the image it returns contains the scroll bar as well, which is perhaps not a useful thing to include. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Chromium Discussion mailing list: [email protected] View archives, change email options, or unsubscribe: http://groups.google.com/group/chromium-discuss -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
