Chrome - New Message - Corrupt Editor View

I like the Chrome browser. But when in the forums, if I choose "New Message", I get a broken editor view and the toolbar is missing most of the options. This is a snapshot of what I see:

The "font styles", the horizontal line item, and everything after the "Insert Image" option are all missing.

I'm forced to use Internet Explorer when I want to post anything that isn't just plain text.

 

Now I don't know if this is something wrong with my Chrome installation, but there are no errors thrown anywhere, and Chrome updates itself so frequently that a reinstall is probably pointless.

 

Any thoughts on this anyone?

Not sure if it helps any, but I often see that view for a split second when using Firefox.  That is usually when I am offsite and therefore my computer likes to be slower than dirt.  Maybe Chrome is getting stuck at a point in the loading process?

If it's getting stuck, how does one go about unsticking it?? I've tried reload, refresh, CTRL+refresh. It happens all the time, even in the office where the internet is reasonable.

Hi Thoric,

 

maybe this is related to other problems of the message editor like described here.

 

Seems Lithium does not only have to fix things for FireFox, but for Chrome too…

Best regards,

This problem hasn't gone away. In the Breakpoint forums I'm totally unable to get the message editor to fully render.

Here, in this thread however, it appears to work.
