Google Chrome patch fixes vanishing scrollbar

Posted by Oyya-Info on Monday, June 15, 2009 Under: Google

Did you pine for those missing Gmail scrollbars when using the latest version of Chrome, as I did? Pine no more, because Google said its latest developer release of the open-source browser gives them back.

Chrome 2.0.177.1 is on the developer preview release channel, not the better-tested beta or stable channels, so not everyone will get it. (You can sign up for the developer or beta channels by downloading the Chrome Channel Changer, but be warned that you have to uninstall them if you want to step back immediately to the stable version.)

The new version also lets people install plug-ins such as Adobe Systems' Flash without having to restart the browser. And among other fixes is an update to the V8 JavaScript engine to get the Lala Web site working.

Also, Google is continuing its Chrome marketing spree. On Wednesday, the company showed off 11 artsy promotional videos that follow in the same vein as Chrome comic book that accompanied the browser's debut.

If you're more into the gory details, though, Google also released five technical talks by Chrome engineers on YouTube. The talks range in length from 10 to 28 minutes.
