I like to keep Google Tasks open, but it is only offered in the sidebar of heavy website like Gmail, Google Calendar, etc.
Going through the (relatively light) HTML of Google Calendar, gave me this URL, which redirects to a valid standalone Google Tasks: https://tasks.google.com/embed/?origin=https%3A%2F%2Fmail.google.com&hai=3&hc=4%2C1%2C5%2C9&hl=en&forcehl=1&usegapi=1&id=I0_[...]1&_gfid=I0_1659641321701&parent=https%3A%2F%2Fmail.google.com&pfname=&[......]m%3D__features__
However, I cannot turn this into a "separate window" app, because it needs the original URL, not the one it redirects to.
Is there a way to manually set the URL of chrome apps?

I'd like to use Google Tasks, not from the sidebar of Gmail or Google Calendar, etc., but as a standalone browser window.
Even better would be to open it as a Chrome / Firefox webapp (i.e. a standalone non-browser window).
Simple steps"
Open Gmail or Google Calendar - Calendar is less code, so easier
Open the tasks sidebar panel
Right-click on the tasks panel and click "inspect"
In the new sidepanel with the source, scroll up a bit from the highlighted until you see
copy the iframe element (right-click, copy, copy element)
paste into a plaintext editor (TextEdit, Gedit, NotePad, etc.)
take the entire URL in " that starts with https://tasks.google.com and ends with __features__
paste it into the browser (where you are logged into your Google account).
Bookmark it.
You can turn this into a Chrome webapp, but the tasks will not load when starting the Chrome webapp directly. However, you can always open the bookmark, and then from the address bar use open in to open it in the Chrome webapp that you created.
I have made a drive app, added to drive through permissions. It is not published in the Chrome web store, but is picked up by my chromebook as an app.
The app shows the same icons, as specified in the developers console, wherever I see them, except, I now discover, on my chromebook. Clicking on the finder brings up an icon I haven't used in several months. It may have been specified at some point in the old console, which appears now to be completely unreachable.
When I look at App info, it shows the correct icon.
So, question is, where is Chrome OS / Chromebook / Google getting this icon from, and how can I remove/delete/update it?
When you published you app in Chrome, you have supplied some images.. you can review the images and see if you can find this old icon there..

In Google Apps Script: Using NATIVE sandbox mode:
Linking to another HTML page in Google Apps Script is working fine.
But when using IFRAME sandbox mode:
Unable to get links working in Google Apps Script when using sandbox mode of "IFRAME"
As per the above SO post I tried using target="_blank". As expected, when the link is clicked the page opens in a new window.
However -
Using target="_parent" in Chrome opens a new window each time, but Firefox is not working. According to https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/html/restrictions target="_parent" is not supported by HTML Service — this is probably why it behaves like target="_blank".
Using target="_self" in both Chrome and Firefox results in the first click opening in the same window but subsequent clicks bring up a blank page.
I want the page to load in the same window as my Apps script, as would occur when using target="_self" in an anchor on an unrestricted web page.
plz help me.
When using IFRAME sandbox mode, for <a>nchors to open in the same tab or window, target="_top" must be specified. Support for this was added to Google Apps Script in the latter half of 2015. Before this time unexpected behaviour resulted. From a Google Apps Script developer blog:
We have been working hard to improve IFRAME sandbox mode and have
added many features since then, including: Firefox support, file
uploads, top navigation support, and improved Google Picker API
support.
It's a doc error needs to fix with Google when using "SandBoxMode=IFRAME" currently. See Can't call a server function with a form with input type="file" when using SandBoxMode=IFRAME.
I've tested it works now by setting the HtmlService.SandboxMode.NATIVE
instead of working when HtmlService.SandboxMode is set to Iframe. Also reference to this related issue here.
I want to create an app and that opens only on new window.
This tells that we cannot open tab by a chrome apps. But when I access
this gmail app, and this kind of apps opens in the same tab.
How can I get this resolved.
It seems that you are confusing Chrome Hosted Apps with Chrome Apps.
Hosted apps are more or less bookmarks. Chrome Apps are similar to native apps in that they are much more powerful but have no special access to the browser. You can open normal web content using window.open(). But you can't put your own Chrome App content inside that tab.
what i need to realize is a way of automatizing opening google chrome and analyzing the network waterfall from the google developer tool
open the google chrome
open the google developer tool

navigate the url,and export all the waterfall out
record the total time of the whole website loading, and show all the waterfall of the network.
cycle above and collect the url and according total url loading and waterfall and show them in one mail.
anyone idea? help me
I don't know how to do this in Chrome, but using NetExport in Firefox does most of what you're looking for:

You can auto-export the HAR file, or you can manually copy the waterfall as an image, which you could then paste into an email.
