Refresh when displayed for a few seconds

Inspecting the Network tab in Chrome, it appears many stylesheet, font and script assets are loaded when I move my mouse over the main area of the chat widget for the first time. I expect these assets are responsible for the font changes I notice

Hi Henry, can you provide a link to your site so we can replicate the behavior? Also, what locale have you chosen for the plugin?

Hi @facebook

The same thing happens on every website using the plugin. The steps to reproduce are:

1. Visit a website using the Facebook chat plugin
2. The chat widget should be displayed
3. Wait 2 or 3 seconds
4. Move your mouse over the chat widget
5. Many scripts, styles and fonts are then requested by the chat plugin (view Network tab in Chrome to get a list)
6. The font style or size seems to change

Note 1: The font style or size change isn’t massively noticeable but it is enough to feel unprofessional.

Note 2: You don’t have to use this WordPress plugin to get this behavior. The Facebook chat plugin script can be added manually as well and you will get this same behavior.

This wasn’t immediately reproducible for me, so I will need to look into reproducing this with the team and get back to you. Thank you for the effort and details, and sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks for trying. Here is a recording I made of the issue https://streamable.com/ro3sdv

The video is 17 seconds. You should notice the text change at roughly the 12s point when I move my mouse over the chat widget area.

Hi @facebook did you manage to get an update on this? The recording I made is a good description of the problem: https://streamable.com/ro3sdv
