Browser version chromebook bug
Kevin Siegel
2 Posts

When I change the size of the embedded window of tracker in chrome on a chromebook, the part where the video or any graphs are shown become blank. I can get it to show back up by zooming or scrolling, but it quickly becomes blank again. My students all only have chromebook, so I am relying on the browser version. With their screen size the default size of the tracker browser version is set really small. I have attached a screenshot of what happens.

I don't know if this is a bug that would be easy to fix, especially since it doesn't happen in my browser on my windows desktop. One possible solution that I can think of is to move the text below the tracker window that starts with "What is Tracker Online?" to be lower on the webpage, so the default size of the tracker window can be bigger.

If anyone knows a way to avoid this happening or to make the window bigger without this happening, please let me know.
