Is there a known Chrome bug with WP 4.3 on Mac?

Thanks funkjedi, it works great!

Thanks a lot funkjedi! That plugin worked perfectly! ??

Thank you Samuel Wood (Otto) – your fix worked nicely.

Here’s another fix that our developer found to fix this issue in Chrome for OSX (Have no idea if this works for Windows). Just enable the “slimming paint” setting in Chrome. Go to this URL in your Chrome browser – chrome://flags/#disable-slimming-paint
Be sure it is enabled.

@funkjedi very useful. Thank you.

When chrome fix this. I can just uninstall the chrome extension without having the need to change anything on my sites.

Problem is with Chrome, not WordPress. You guys may be doing this the hard way:

A Bug in Chrome 45 Causes WordPress Admin Menu to Break
// WordPress Tavern

Within the last five weeks, several people have reported an issue in Chrome that breaks the WordPress admin menu. If you hover the mouse cursor over menu items in the sidebar, they’ll occasionally fall out-of-place.

Using Chrome 45.0.2454.85, I’m able to inconsistently reproduce the behaviour reported in the ticket. Through the process of elimination, users discovered Chrome is the software at fault and not WordPress.

The source of the problem stems from Slimming Paint which is enabled by default in Chrome 45. Disabling slimming paint fixes the issue.

To disable this feature, visit chrome://flags/#disable-slimming-paint in Chrome and Enable the Disable slimming paint option, and make sure the other two Enable options are disabled because they will override the Disable option.

If this sounds confusing, please refer to the following screenshot provided by Samuel Wood.

Disable Slimming Paint Options

Chrome’s development team is aware of the issue and is working towards a solution that is marked for release in Chrome 47. Until then, users are encouraged to disable Slimming Paint until Chrome fixes the issue.

Disabling Slimming Paint options worked for me, but only after I clicked the blue “Relaunch” button, simply closing the browser and re-opening did not work. Was driving me crazy. FYI using OSX 10.10.2.

Chrome 45 has a rendering bug.

– 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.

Thanks Samuel Wood (Otto)

Awesome, thanks for this thread. This was driving me nuts, I was switching to Safari just for using WP Admin to avoid this issue.

There was a plugin for this – “Chrome Admin Menu Fix. By Luke Williamson.” which is now completely gone…

Did I miss a memo somewhere? Is there a security problem with this plugin or something?
