The GFSlideshow API displays pictures off-center in Chrome Browser #566

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Visit the sample website in a Google Chrome browser here: 
http://www.google.com/uds/solutions/slideshow/index.html
2. After page is loaded and slideshows start playing, refresh the page.
3. If the slideshows still look normal, try manually clicking through the 
photos in one of the slideshow until you see some are off-center.  Repeat 2-3 
until you see any off-center photos, or see screenshot.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect the slideshows to play normally like it did on the initial page load.  
However, upon refresh, the slideshows on the page are all off-center.  They 
only show the upper left corner of each picture.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Current version of the API, Windows 7 Home Premium, Chrome version 9

Please provide any additional information below.

Hello,

Are you running AdBlock or ABP or similar ad-blocking program? This caused all 
my problems, once I disabled my extensions the slideshow ran fine.

Interesting, that does appear to be my issue.  I have AdBlock installed in my 
Chrome browser, and when I disable it, the slideshows no longer appear 
off-center.  However, my Firefox browser with ABP installed doesn't have this 
issue.  At least it is good to know that this is isolated to chrome users with 
ad blocking extensions.

I run Adblock 2.4.19 in Chrome on Win7, XP and Ubuntu.  And similarly when I 
disable Adblock GFSlideshow returns to consistent centering.

Hi,
I'm one of the AdBlock project members. I just looked at the issue filed in our 
issue tracker (issue adblockforchrome:5821) and tested it with AdBlock disabled 
and only the attached (test) extension installed. As I could reproduce it with 
that test extension, I can tell you it is caused by 
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45586.

When is this problem going to be fixed ?  When my website visitors see this 
they are disgusted.  I have to tell them it is a Google Chrome Bug.

We too are wondering when this works,  the olympics in London are a big 
occasion for us also

We at Jaguar need to have this functionality working also.  I was reading about 
this issue on the olympic blog and I find it hard to believe that Google would 
allow a bug like like this to exist for so long

This picasa issue needs to get fixed before the olympics,  will be very 
embarrassing for Google

I am the original poster of this issue, and I wanted to report that I no longer 
experience this issue with AdBlock running.  However, I installed AdBlock Plus 
(ABP), and I DO get this issue when using that extension.  In comment #5, one 
of the AdBlock project members listed a bug in webkit which was supposedly the 
cause of this issue.  That bug has been marked as resolved.  So, maybe the 
issue could be resolved within the ABP extension.  ABP doesn't appear to be as 
widely used as AdBlock, and it is still listed as beta.

I'm interested, what olympic sites are using this slideshow?

Tim,  Everybody that uses Chrome has an issue with this.  This is standard 
Chrome setup.  Take a look at the slide shows in the site below, the first time 
you view them they are fine.  Click to another page on the site and then return 
to Slide Shows and you will see the the photos reduced by at least a factor of 
8 and positioned in the bottom right of screen.

The slideshows on that site are working fine for me unless I enable the AdBlock 
Plus (Beta) extension.  I'm on the latest version, v20 of Chrome.

This bug has been very annoying and I would love to see it fixed immediately. I 
use picasa alot and need to be able to insert slide shows by gadget into my 
olympics blog.
I notice 50% of users use Chrome.

Does anybody know how to get this bug fixed ?  I was reading the comments above 
and I would like to add my opinion.  This is standard Chrome functionality that 
is the problem, I have the latest version of Chrome as it updates itself.  I 
have a great deal   
of material to go on slide shows fed from picasa. They work fine on internet 
explorer.
I would love to see this issue fixed

great to have this fixed.
