Topic: Floating Scrollbar in Chrome
Posted By: Ander
Subject: Floating Scrollbar in Chrome
Date Posted: 31 Mar 2012 at 11:04

Since two days, my Illy pages have a vertical scroll bar stuck on them. This scroll bar is the same scroll bar as that of the dropdown menu of cities.

Whether I visit the map or the market, the scrollbar just follows. It floats on the page, right where the city-list scrollbar would appear.

If I right click on the scrollbar and select "Inspect Element" I get the <ul> list of my cities. If I delete this element, the scroll bar goes away, but appears by itself again after a few seconds.

This happens only with Chrome. I have cleaned all stored web data and reinstalled chrome, but the problem persists. Has anyone faced this problem and know any remedies?

Rephrasing the problem:

The city menu scroll bar (without the accompanying list of the cities) is always visible in "worldmap" and "markets & prices" pages. It appears by itself and doesnt go away, making navigation difficult.

I had a feeling that it happened after loading all the cities in Illytools. I removed Illytools extension and reinstalled chrome after that, still no change..

I have a Vertical Scroll Bar in the middle of my World Map and Market Trades Screens.  Chrome.   Here's a wrinkle - Only on The_Dude but NOT on El_Jeffe!  I've tried clearing Chrome Cache and Cookies, no effect.  This appeared yesterday.  I have never installed IllyTools.

The Scroll Bar has now appeared in the world map of El_Jeffe, too.  I reckon I jinxed it.  :)

I don't have this problem.  I am using Chrome and have Illytools enabled at the moment.  Am going to disable it now, though.

Edited to add:  I am not currently using Butler.

Rill, TD said he never installed Illytools and he has this problem too. You need not disable it if you like it.

I normally keep it disabled because every so often it interferes with my notifications.  I mostly enable it to track thieves or send to the human statues.

Shame on the Dev team for wasting their time and MY TIME by spamming GC instead of fixing this problem.

Same for me! Have it in Chrome, but not in FireFox.

I don't think making minor tweaks to the chat filter and ban timer took a lot of time to do TD.

I've had the floating scrollbar for a few days now, but some of the terrain types have vanished from the map for me just moments ago.  For example, heavy clay seams, exposed clay, swampland, dense forest, to name a few, are all appearing as a plain green tile.  Others appear as normal.  

Those that are masked or appear blank, also fail to display appropriately in the "detailed tile" window above the compass.

2 days now...still not fixed...how hard is it to do?
 
ok...now i was getting impatient cos illy froze on me..so i got start up manager and saw that i have about 5-6 google chromes running in the background and a frame overlay programme running too.
as i use IE i uninstalled google chrome and the frame overlay programme.
 
ive just restarted my computer and relogged back into illy, checked out the world map and VOILA...
the vertical scroll bar has disappeared and everything seems fine.
 
not sure if this will help anyone else but.....

Same for me FF is fine but Chrome has bar in middle of map, very very annoying.


Posted By: Rill
Date Posted: 02 Apr 2012 at 19:36
I don't use frame thingies with Chrome and I don't have this problem.  Maybe scaramouche is onto something?

I don't have a frame overlay program but the scrollbar is still in my map.

This is now resolved. (You may have to refresh your browser)

The scrollbar is gone, thank you.

However, now the city select menu jumps to the city on the top of the list as soon as I open it, preventing me from selecting the city myself.  Not every time, but maybe about a third of the time.

Click the left or right arrows either side of the city select menu and try again.

Seems like that drop down fails to load properly the first time and fixes itself when you do that.
