Blank bar at bottom of window on 113 version

more options

On 112, I had my css set up to make the status bar hidden and only show the url path when I moused over it in the lower left corner of the window. It also cut itself short to only the length of the url similar to the www.wikipedia.org box in the attached picture. After upgrading to 113, my browser has this black bar at the bottom. When I cleared out my css file, urls would show up in the bar when I moused over them. I've tried a few different css fixes but none of them will get it back to how I had it working in 112. The picture attached is what I'm getting in 113 right now with the css below. the black bar below the mouse over url goes all the way across the window and is always visible. Here is my current css file:

radiogroup:focus-visible > radio[focused="true"] > .radio-label-box {

outline: 1px dotted black !important;

}

:root{ --toolbar-field-focus-border-color: transparent !important; }

Did you try to start with a fresh userChrome.css and add one rule at the time to check where this goes wrong ?

I'm not good with this kind of scripting. Is each rule split up by the {} symbols? If so, I have not tried adding each part yet but I'll give that a shot.

there's a quick and easy way to banish the black bar if it ever appears when you open Chrome.

Spot the black bar in a Chrome window. Enter Chrome's full-screen mode. Exit full-screen mode. Continue browsing – the black bar should be no more (for now)

Regards, Will
