Could you enable SOCKS v5 support ?

Unfortunately, Windows doesn't support Socks v5 natively. however I'll try to 
implement 
this feature in the upcoming releases.

It would be great to implement "hostnames resolving over SOCKS v5" feature.

Working on SOCKS v5 support (not including DNS over SOCKS).

It looks like you can trick it into using SOCKS v5 today.

If in switchy you enter under the HTTP proxy field something like:

    Http Proxy:    socks5://localhost
    Port:          1080

Then this sets the HTTP proxy to "socks5://localhost:1080", which chrome parses 
to 
mean a SOCKS v5 proxy at "localhost:1080", and things seem to work.

I confirmed this in Chrome by navigating to "chrome://net-
internals/proxyservice.config" to see what it interpreted the settings to mean. 
(note 
that you need to do a page load first before chrome re-fetches the IE settings).

That particular issue should have been fixed in Chromium, see 
http://crbug.com/29914 
. The fix is not yet part of the stable releases, but it will be soon, I hoope.

Your trick does not seem to work for me. I filled the fields as you wrote and 
hit
"save", and it automatically turned into this:

@eroman
Nice trick, and a more simpler way to set Chrome's SOCKS5 proxy than using PAC 
scripts!
Thanks for the tip.

Regarding support of DNS over SOCKS: it's really great news! hope the fix is 
released 
soon, and thanks for your efforts and fixing this issue :)

It works well, check "chrome://net-internals/proxyservice.config".
Anyway, the upcoming release (coming later today) will feature SOCKS v5 support.

SOCKS v5 is supported now in v1.4 (sorry for the 2 days delay :)).

The traffic doesn't goes trough socks5 proxy after I'm entering address and 
port in corresponding field.

I have the same problem: traffic doesn't go through SOCKS5. :(
And what about DNS? Is it supposed go through SOCKS5?
