How can I enable the overrides panel in my settings? I opened my Chrome and it's just gone, I've wasted most of my day trying to get this to work, but 0 answers on Google.
Thanks Chrome, just make my settings disappear, cool!
The Emulation panel is the new Overrides pane
The Overrides have been moved to the slide out tabs that you can access by pressing Esc on any panel.
You will find the settings you are looking for under the Emulation tab there.

Chrome developer tools in chrome can simulate some device dimensions and even we can set custom width(x) and height(y) for viewport. my question is can we save this custom width or height with custom name or just save it.
In recent versions this is found in...
Developer Tools (CTRL+SHIFT/OPTION+CMD+I)
Settings (F1)
Devices
Add custom device…
As specified in the Device Mode & Mobile Emulation Chrome docs.
Chrome Canary now has this conveniently found under "Edit…" in the 'Responsive' drop-down menu when in 'device mode' (CTRL+SHIFT/OPTION+CMD+M when developer tools are open).
Yes, you can save custom presets. Just click the More overrides button in the top right (represented as three horizontal dots). The emulation drawer should show up in the Dev-tools. You can click Save As button and assign a name to the custom preset. The new preset should then show up in the list of Models.
Check out the official DevTools documentation on this for more detailed steps.
Edit: This seems to have changed in the newer versions of Chrome. matharden's answer includes the correct steps: inside the devtools, go to Settings, select Devices in the left navigation and select Add custom device...
If you bring up the developer tools, click the settings cog in the corner and then select Devices from the left-hand menu, there is an option at the bottom of that page to add a custom device.
At the time I've added this answer, saving screen resolutions seems to have been disabled.
I created a preset (1024x768) whilst it was still possible, and I can still access that preset, but there's no longer a Save option where it did exist (as #Chirag64 described).
There's no mention of 'save' in the docs: https://developer.chrome.com/devtools/docs/device-mode, either :(
I had a quick look around in chrome://flags and my ~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome directory, but couldn't find reference to the preference I have saved...
Google Chrome dev tools no longer lets me re-position it to the bottom of the page instead of the right side. Anyone know how I can re-enable this function? It makes it very difficult to use it in certain screen layouts.
I'm using Chrome v 33.0.1750.154 m
Windows 8.1
Interestingly, the opposite is true in Canary(v 35.0.1900.0 canary). In canary dev tools are stuck on the bottom and can't be re-positioned to the side.
Is there some check-box I accidentally clicked or what??
Currently I can only dock or un-dock the dev tools panel, but the option to change it's position inside the window is gone.
If you click and hold the dock/undock button you get the option to reposition.
Cmd-Shift-D also works, as I just found out
I want to increase the screen real estate for my Chrome app. The Address Bar is useless in a Chrome App and I was wondering if there was a way to disable it.
You can run Chrome in application mode.
Windows:
Chrome.exe --app=https://google.com
Mac:
/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --app=https://google.com
Linux:
google-chrome --app=https://google.com
This removes all toolbars, not just the address bar, but it will definitely increase your real estate without having to use Kiosk mode.
Visit the site you want in Chrome.
Click the Chrome menu in your browser toolbar.
Select "More Tools" > "Create shortcut…"
Check "Open as window", press "Add"
Once you launch from that shortcut it will be a window without toolbar.
Mac
CMDControlF goes fullscreen
CMDShiftF hides the navbar
also worth noting ... → More Tools → Create Shortcut... creates a standalone Application, just make sure you're logged into the Chrome Profile you want to be active
Windows
F11 (possibly AltEnter too)
Uncheck Always Show Toolbar in Full Screen in View menu:
and go to fullscreen then:
Alt+Cmd+F - on Mac
F11 - on Windows
In the latest version of Chrome (Version 50.0.2661.94 m) you can accomplish this by going to the menu and then clicking -> More Tools -> Add to Desktop. You will then want to check off "Open as Window" in the popup that appears and then click "Add". Screen shots below:
Hitting F11 may work for you.(Full-screen mode)
It appears that the hiding the address bar without going full screen is no longer an option:http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/chrome/d7LfleRNX7M
On macs chrome browser:
1st toggle on Full screen:
cmd-ctrl-f
2nd toggle on hide address bar, tabs and all
Just repeat to undo or hover above top
cmd-shift-f
Undo by repeating backwards:
cmd-shift-f undo hide
cmd-ctrl-f undo full screen

wanted this done for a 'YouTube Pop-out Player' without Chrome Address / Toolbar or Bookmarks Bar; solution ended up being a small edit of MarkHu's answer (because of new updates, i guess?)
Go to the page you want altered, select Chrome Toolbar's 'Hamburger button' (3 horizontal lines).
From there: More tools > Add to desktop... > Open as window (tick box) > Add (button).
... and, simply open your page from the new desktop shortcut, adjust as needed, and enjoy!
Even though the question is about gaining some space removing the address bar, you can also gain some space by toggling the bookmark bar on and off, using Ctrl + Shift + B, or ⌘ Cmd + Shift + B, in Mac OS.
Instructions as of Dec 2018:
Visit the site you want in Chrome
From menu select "More tools" > "Create shortcut..."
From apps (can visit chrome://apps/), right click site then enable "Open as window"
Now when you open the shortcut it will open in a window without toolbar.
Vivaldi Chromium-based Browser can hide the address bar for my Home Theather PC. Using that app you can show/hide a floating bar with F8 key.
Other answers are unrelated to what was asked!
in macOS
make service by automator.
that's it. you can assign short cut.
For Chrome on Ubuntu (16.04), F11 is the way to go.
to answer your question about how to hide the address bar I will suggest checking blurscreen.app
here is how it works
ps: you will not have more real state though
Since the last update of Google Chrome, a screen ruler shows up when inspecting an element. Does anyone know how to disable this ruler?
This is an old question, but now you can enable or disable now in Chrome Developer Tools -> Settings -> Show Rulers (you can also access the settings just pressing F1).
In Chrome 38, there is a "Toggle Device Mode" button to the left of menu items in developer tools. Clicking on it will toggle display of ruler and device emulation list.
Go to "Settings" -> "General" tab.
In the end of page, click on button "Restore defaults and reload".
=)
It's not possible for the moment.
You need to wait Chrome 25 or use Canari.

This is now known as Device Mode. It allows you to select different device screen sizes as well as emulate different Network Speeds.
You can enable/disable it by clicking the Phone Icon on your console.
Upgrading to the latest dev release fixed this for me:
http://www.google.com/chrome/intl/en/eula_dev.html?dl=mac
This started happening to me out of the blue. I use Chrome inspect element for developing, on a personal computer that no one else uses.
This morning, I had the whole rulers-and-menus thing appear as if out of nowhere.
The above suggestions did nothing. When I got to the configuration check-box for rulers, I discovered it was turned off.
I was able to get the old look back by resetting the defaults in the same config menu which held the rulers check-box. Hope that helps anyone stuck like I was.
When you have the unspect editor opened, Just go to settings by clicking the icon (top right on the unspector) there you will find a big button saying restore defaults and reload . That worked for me . Good luck
I'm using Chrome Canary (Version 45.0.2451.0 canary), and the presence of the rulers appears to be tied to whether Emulation is enabled. Restoring defaults (as suggested above) turns it off, or you can just go to the drawer at the bottom and do it.
I'm building out my jquery mobile app out and have been testing in Chrome. Its the best for me because the debugging is great.
I was using a TAPHOLD event but decided to go away from that for a swipe-right event.
Chrome actually registered the taphold, so I was hopeful that it would register a swipe right with the mouse. But I cannot get it to register unless I have to do something else... anyone?
By now the actual chrome developer tools (tried chrome 20) can emulate touch and swipe events.
You can activate that behavior through the tool options, accessible via the little gear-wheel in the bottom corner.
Just check "Emulate touch events" from the options. Then you can also swipe with your mouse.
In desktop browsers I tend to use the right mouse button testing swipes. It will open a context-menu but it actually works (I normally use Chrome 17 and Firefox 10).
For instance when left-clicking and then swiping on an image in Chrome or Firefox it selects the image and you are then moving around the transparent thumbnail of the image. But when right-clicking and swiping the swipe event is fired.
UPDATE
This update is pretty late to the punch but this just shouldn't be necessary anymore. In fact the Chrome developer tools (the ones I'm used to using) have gotten a lot better about emulating devices.
A lot of the answers here are old and out of date. As of Chrome 63, swipe is built-in as long as you are in responsive mode with developer tools open. So open Developer Tools (3 dots->tools->developer tools), then click the phone/tablet icon on the left to put Chrome into a mobile mode. Then if you left click and hold, you will see the cursor changed to a dot, and you can swipe.
Update: this appears to be enabled in Chrome by default (37.0.2062.120 as of September 2014) you do the following:
Open Developer Tools
Click the little phone icon next to the search icon in the upper left (next to the Elements tab)
In the Emulation tab on the bottom choose a device model from the drop down
Previous answer:
To get this working in the current version of Chrome (32.0.1700.107 as of Feb 2014) you do the following:
Open Developer Tools
Click the gear icon in the upper right
Select the Overrides tab on the left
Click on Show 'Emulation' view in console drawer
Close the Settings popup
Open the Console (button to the left of the gear)
Click the Emulation tab in the console (next to Console and Search)
Choose a device and click on Emulate (and click Reset to cancel emulation)
