Admin Menu items jumbled in Chrome

  • I noticed an issue in WordPress 4.3 (replicated in 4.3.1) where the menu items in the dashboard are rearranged and broken until you scroll the dashboard area down, or hover over each individual menu item.

    This issue seems to only be affecting Google Chrome and is fairly sporadic. No extensions are installed to the browser. Can be replicated using Twenty Sixteen, Twenty Fifteen and a number of custom themes. No plugins are activated.

    I have a video showing the issue here:

    Chrome 45 has a rendering bug. There is a ticket open on Chrome’s bug tracker about this issue, they’re planning a hotfix release some time this week.

    In the meantime, here is a workaround to eliminate the issue in Chrome.
    – Go to chrome://flags/#disable-slimming-paint
    – Enable the “Disable slimming paint” option.
    – Ensure that the “Enable slimming paint” option below it is not turned on.
    – Relaunch Chrome.

    When you’re done, the final result should look like this:

    This will disable the problem code in Chrome and allow the menus to render normally.

    Foxsch: Please make a new thread, since this one relates to the (now fixed) bug in Chrome 45 ??
