Is there any way I can record My Electron App's Window? My monitor isn't 1080p so I have set that resolution in Dev Tools. I wanna record the window in 1080p Resolution, When I try to record using a screen recorder and only capture the window part. The quality that comes out is really bad. I would love if someone can tell me a solution!
And I mentioned Chrome in the Title because electron also uses Chrome!

I've written the media queries to make the app responsive and they looked fine when I'm viewing them via Chrome DevTools. First screenshot is from Chrome DevTools, second is from my iPhone X:
Iphone X has a screen size of 325x812, which is the first difference.
Secondly, G Chrome Dev is an emulator, which means it only simulates what a page will look like on a specific device. It does not account for hardware and software (say which browser you're using). They use different rendering engines, so deviations are bound to occur.
I checked the URL, you are using react to make your page responsive which takes care of your application to be visualize properly on all the screen size.
You have design correctly only, you don't want your users to open desktop view in mobile.
I have been trying to make a responsive website for mobile devices . I have found two ways to test responsive design:
By resizing the window
Using Google Chrome developer's tools
In both of them I get a different view. Which one gives me the right view, as I use font-size and padding in 'em'.
Resizing browser window is not Responsive. While developing Responsive applications the easiest, but yet not perfect, way is using Chrome's Developer tools. Even that may give you different results, because mobile device screens are using not just width/height but also dpi. So 320 iphone6s screen is not going to be perfect match for 320px resized browser or equivalent android device.
Go for chrome developer tools. It's a great way of checking responsiveness. It comes with dimensions of popular mobile and tablet devices. So you can check for a variety of device at once.
Simply resizing the browser is not a right way of checking responsiveness.
Recently I built a page that works fine with both the ways you mentioned. You can check it here.
Let me know if you need any help.
I would say Chrome Dev Tools is the best bet for a local snapshot.
However, if you have access to one or more mobile devices you may want to launch the site on Heroku or another production environment and view it from the actual device.
An iPhone 6 for example, I find Chrome does not take into account the address bar or bottom nav in safari so things can be slightly off from the Chrome Dev view of iPhone 6.
I've got a little problem with my website and ipad/iphones. A certain tag in my css causes problems and I'm unable to check if I've solved the problem. Is there a way to look at my website as if on an ipad while not actually buying an ipad. Is there something like an ipad emulator or something?
You can use web (free) services that provide such functionality. There is a lot of them. For example: http://ipadpeek.com/ or http://mobiletest.me/.
There is also a simple solution that doesn't require any further app installation.
If you're running google Chrome you can enter the developer tools by hitting F12 on a PC and Command+option+I on a Mac.
In the developer tools you have on the top left corner of the screen a mobile device emulator, which you can choose various different models of mobile devices from. not just iPad and iPhone.
Note that you have to refresh the page each time you change a device emulator. Otherwise it won't load with all the characteristics of the current emulation.
i just bought the new nexus 5 which screen is on full hd.
My surprise was not so good when I opened chrome and I saw that the browser was not showing websites in full hd but in a ridiculous 1024 resolution. Searching on the parameters and on the web I didn't find a way to change the resolution to 1080.
Can't you tell me a way to get a full hd phone browser ?
Thank you !!!
Not sure what you are referencing. The browser does not "downsample" the content. I have a Nexus 5 myself and have no issues with the Chrome browser
I am using the following test setup (Latest meaning as of July 14th 2012):
Core i7 with an ATI FirePro V9800 (Eyefinity)
Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit (latest updates / patches)
Latest Catalyst drivers
Latest Google Chrome Stable / Canary.
6 x 1080p displays (in a row) resulting in a 11520px by 1080px desktop.
I have tried the following to get a fullscreen web view across displays:
Set the maximize to whole desktop setting in the Catalyst control panel. That works for maximizing normal windows (except Chrome), but not for anything fullscreen.
Tried Chrome Kiosk mode (that would be ideal), same problem, only fills up primary display.
Using Chrome Fullscreen or HTML5 fullscreen API results in the same: Fullscreen on a single of the 6 monitors.
IE9 seems to have a limitation of about 10000px for the webview, thus i cannot even stretch it across the entire desktop manually (that works with Chrome).
Tried UltraMon.
Tried a number of Chrome command line switches (http://peter.sh/experiments/chromium-command-line-switches/) for kiosk mode, start in fullscreen etc., so right now using the --app="http://127.0.0.1/index.html" switch to at least get rid of most of Chrome's UI elements.
Tried to find an extension for Chrome, but no success.
Tried Chrome Frame in IE9, also only uses one display.
I understand it is most probably a driver issue reporting the wrong desktop size to Chrome (which I thought was the point of the Catalyst Maximize to full desktop size function). Chrome does not seem to get the desktop size from the same place as other "normal" windows do (obviously not very familiar with Windows windowing).
I would like to work on a full-screen Chrome webview across multiple monitors or a completely chromeless window that I can manually maximize. My browser configuration is flexible, even the OS is somewhat flexible.
I would like to know:
Has anyone gotten a fullscreen browser view across more than 1 monitor to work with Chrome (or any browser)?
Are there any tools that can fake the right (full) display size to Chrome?
Could this be workable in Windows 8?
Is there something that just displays a Chromeless Chrome browser that runs the very latest Chrome? (I have seen awesomium, but find that its price is too high for what I want it to do). Also I want to be able to use the most recent Chrome releases ideally.
Any comments welcome and sorry for the lengthy details.
Thanks for reading!

This worked for me using two monitors:
start C:\Users\terminal\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe --app="http://www.domain1.com" --window-position=0,0 --kiosk --user-data-dir=c:/monitor1
start C:\Users\terminal\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe --app="http://www.domain2.com" --window-position=1680,0 --kiosk --user-data-dir=c:/monitor2
I think the order of the parameters is relevant.
