Google Chrome dev tools variable tip bubble too little to see the content - google-chrome

I have just now sended the following message to google chrome developer:
Chrome version: 54.0.2840.59 m
As you know, when debugging a web page with javascript, the Chrome
debugger allows to pause the execution of the code on breakpoints. In
this moment is possible to move the mouse onto a variable to see what
value has in: when the mouse is on the variable chrome code
inspector/debugger shows a little tip showing the variable value.
The problem is that such little bubble tip sometimes is toooo little
and it is not possible to see the content.
Please correct its size (make it resizable) to make possible to read
its content or it isn't useful.
Thanks
Anyone else has noticed the same issue?
Someone has solved it?

Before the last update was working perfectly (or at least I didn't see anything wrong in its behavior!), but now the following image shows the issue that sometimes happens:
As shown into the above img, part of the bubble tip content is shown, part is hidden, and it is not possible to scroll the bubble tip neither up|down nor left|right: scrollbars are greyed. Sometimes scrollbars don't appear at all.

You can scroll the tool tip as per the animation below:

A possible workaround could be adding the variable to the watch list:
Procedure:
right click on the variable
Into right click menu click on "Add selected text to watches"
This allows to keep an eye on the watchlisted var contents, even if they hidden into the bubble tip.
It is not completely handy, but works.

Google image bug, transparent after clicking on an image

I can't find anybody facing the same problem as mine.
Every time I click an image on google image, suddenly the whole page disappear, but I'm still able to click things just like everything is still there.
I already turn off all extension, use incognito mode, after finally I try to use inspect element, and found attribute stating "Opacity: 0" on the body. And after unchecking the box (Quick disable attribute in inspect element chrome) everything shows up again.
I'm so confused on why this is happening.
Does anyone have ever facing the same problem?
Or how do I fix it?
It's so frustrating, because I have to refresh the page, every time I click on an image, or switch between images
so I was having this one. in the end, it was a virus.
In my case, it was showing an AD screen on the main google page, and in the sources>gstatic.com it had a different source which also was in a [unknown] source.
dug a bit up and discover some adware was using gstatic as a proxy to show ads on all browsers.
I solved it by running malwarebytes, it found it pretty quickly and solved it for me.
Posting this here because I'm hoping it helps people who search for this issue in the future.

How to grab video from google street view Hyperlapse

Google created new project based on javascripts. http://hyperlapse.tllabs.io/
Engine creating timelapse video but not generating it as visible video file.
How to get it? Only save from screen by desktop video grabbers?
Ok, I found a way, but its complex.
fist things first though, it wasn't actually made by Google, but by T+L labs using the Google Maps API and JavaScript.
Now, to the interesting part:
You're right when you say that there is no pre-made way to save the output video, so you have to mess around with the source code (to remove the overlays) before using screen capture.
What you will need:
Google Chrome
Screen capture software
Windows Live movie maker
Steps:
First, create your hyper lapse like you normally would.
Once you are ready to export, open 'inspect element' (in most browsers the default key is 'F12')
A window with lots of text should pop up. drag the edge out to enlarge the window.
Move your mouse down over the coloured text. As you do this, different parts of the page should highlight themselves in blue one at a time.
What you are seeing is an automatic system; when you hover your mouse over the code for an object on the site, the browser highlights it for you!
Move the mouse around until you find the section that highlights the scroll-bar at the bottom of the page.
Click once to select it, then press delete. The scroll-bar should vanish.
Repeat steps 6-7 for all the other things on top of the hyper lapse itself.
You should now have a clear space to record!
Finally, before you record, press 'F11' to maximise the window, removing the navigation bar at the top.
Activate your screen capture and record the hyper lapse through (Note: make sure the mouse cursor is off-screen whilst you capture)
Press 'F11' again to regain the navigation bar, and then 'F5' to refresh the page and get the removed objects back.
Use Windows Live movie maker to edit the capture down to the correct section, then export as a high quality film.
You're done!

inspect script in chrome debug without losing ability to scroll webpage

When I have some breakpoints set up in a script google chrome removes the ability to scroll the webpage, saying at the top of the screen Paused in debugger. Is there a way to disable this so that I can look at elements in various parts of the page, while also looking at the script in the debugger?
Taken from here.
An easy workaround for the scrolling lock-up is to just jump to the console, and:
window.scrollTo(0, 800). (Replace 800 as needed)
You can click on the Elements tab and then hover over the HTML to the element you are interested in and right click to "Scroll into view". Not the most natural and fast, but it works...

Chrome 'paused in debugger' issue

I don't know what I've switched on (by accident) but every time I have the Inspect Element area open and then try to click anything on the webpage not within the Inspect Element area (especially something jQuery related like a slideshow for example) it greys the page, shows a message saying 'Paused in debugger' and then opens a jQuery file within the Sources section of Inspect Element.
Within the 'Call Stack' area, it shows a message saying 'Paused on a "click" Event Listener'.
I don't remember switching this feature on but I'm keen for it to be switched off.
I know this question has been asked before - I thought I'd found the answer when everyone suggested we look to see if the 'Pause' option is switched on (blue). However, it's not switched on, it's grey not blue or any other colour and when I hover over it, it says "Don't pause on exceptions. Click to Pause on all exceptions".
You might also check the Source tab, check under the Event Listener Breakpoints panel if you've set any breakpoints under 'Mouse'.
This can also cause the issue
Break Point icon at top left should be blue like this(For Deactivate BreakPoints)
Should not grey like this
Found solution here, if the little octagonal stop/pause sign (at lower left of Chrome "Sources") is colored (blue or purple), you need to click on it until it's black again.
It did drive me nuts for a short while.....scroll all the way to the bottom of breakpoint window and you'll find XHR Breakpoints & under it there is the Any XHR checkbox...
Goto the sources tab and check all breakpoints.
Go to Elements tab and remove all breakpoints from right pane under DOM Breakpoints
One possible cause, it that you've enabled the "pause on exceptions" (the little stop-sign shaped icon with the pause (||) symbol with in in the lower left of the window). Try clicking that back to the off/grey state (not red nor blue states) and reload the page.
For me, I resolved it by temporarily disabling the Chrome Bitwarden extension.
You could check to see in the Sources tab in the devtools panel to see what is causing this error, it could be an extension.
To open the devtools panel on Chrome, press the F12 key.
For Visual Studio Users, just go Tools>Options>Debugging and make disabled it

Chrome behaves differently when pressing reload v pressing enter in URL field

Was just trying to cobble a quick site together as a favour for my sister. It's based on a template she bought and I've just quickly bunged her copy/pictures in, so I'm aware the markup is far from perfect. That said, I can't see how it would be causing the following issue...
The template uses a jQuery plugin called jScrollPane to make the content sections scrollable. Sometimes however, in Chrome (v20) this doesn't work - it doesn't let you scroll all the way down.
What's really odd though, is the pattern I've found that seems to effect whether it works or not. Try the following
Go to http://mattandkate2012.co.uk in Google Chrome - click 'Ceremony' - can you scroll down far enough to see the map? I can't.
Press the reload icon, click 'Ceremony' - can you scroll down? I can't.
Select the URL in the browser URL bar, press enter - can you scroll down? I can now!
Does everyone else get the same results as above, and do you have any idea why pressing enter in the URL bar has a different effect to the reload button?
This functionality works fine in Firefox and even IE!
Thanks
Pete
From a very quick look I guess it's because the section contains an image and you aren't re-initialising jScrollPane once the image loads. See:
http://jscrollpane.kelvinluck.com/image.html
The difference between refreshing and pressing enter in the location bar is that the cached image is shown when you press enter in the location bar...
I would suggest moving the call to $('.content').jScrollPane({showArrows: true}); to inside the $(document).ready block - if you call it before the document is ready often images or other elements won't have loaded and so the height of the containers will be wrong.
