Support live previews in Chrome/Chromium #52

Closed tdulcet closed 3 years ago

tdulcet commented 3 years ago

Background

Live previews are not available in Chrome/Chromium because menus.onShown and menus.refresh() are not supported.

Proposed solution

Implement this workaround: https://stackoverflow.com/a/13673942 (which was originally written by a Mozilla employee).

Additional context

This would be good to fix with #44, since the context menu code will need to be refactored anyway for that.

Good idea. An implementation note: We should use this as a fallback only for Chrome/ium, all other browsers (i.e. feature-detect whether menus.onShown is implemented/there) can continue to use the IMHO cleaner current implementation.
