I'm creating a Chrome Extension and when installed it, Chrome creates an icon next to the omnibar. The icon provides no functionality and I'd like to remove it form such a prominent spot. I know I can't fully hide the icon, but can I set the icon to show in the Icon Overflow area under the hamburger icon by default?

Do any one knows how to make sure that extensions work in popup window as well.
I have my chrome browser[highlighted with RED rectangle box in the picture], I wanted to capture the full screen of popoup windows[which is below to chrome highlighted box]. Also to mention that popup page is very huge having big scroll in it [mentioned by blue arrow in the picture].
Its really important.
Right click the Google Chrome window on top and select open as tab, then the address bar opens with default options to the right and click the puzzle icon for your extensions :)
As we know in the past only extension that has "browser_action:default_icon" in its manifest file was displayed on the Chrome toolbar. But recently, Google Chrome displays icons of all the extensions on its toolbar even if I install old version of the browser. How to disable this feature even removing it from the Chrome source code? (I mean from chrome.dll, resources.pak or another file). I don't mean how to hide the icons by moving them from the toolbar to the Chrome menu. I mean how to remove this feature at all or at least hide unwanted icons both on the toolbar and the menu?
With the latest version of Chrome (v41), I seem to only have bottom and pop-out window options. Is there a way I can dock the Web Inspector to the side?
Yes there is a little icon on the right of the Inspector that docks to the side. See the attached screenshot
If you only see the bottom or pop out icon perform a long click on the icon to turn it into a drop down menu.
Mouseover an a tag with chrome, it displays a href text at the bottom left corner, but sometimes after mouseout, the text display doesn't disappear, and sometimes it changed to display another link.
What cause the problem? Is it chrome's bug or related to some tips that frond-end designer should follow?
Is it possible add a functionality in the extension that when you mouse over the left edge of Chrome window a menu with some options (what options is not important now) will slide out?
no, Chrome does not have API to show such panel or handle such kind of event. The only possible workaround is to add you own div to left side of each webpage and show such pane as part of the webpage
