Google revealed on Wednesday that it is 'committed to polishing' its Chrome browser to take advantage of Apple's new MacBook Pro with Retina Display. Nico Weber, a Google Software Engineer and 'Chief Apple Polisher,' to the company's official Chrome blog along with a screenshot of the 'early results' of high-resolution support in Chrome. 'We have further to go over the next few weeks, but we?re off to the races to make Chrome as beautiful as it can be,' he said.

Radioshift for mac. In fact, Google has already begun testing the new polish the Canary developer version of Chrome. Anandtech's Anand Lal Shimpi text in Chrome Canary is 'no longer ugly,' compared to the 'nasty result' from the current version of Chrome. According to Lal Shimpi, Chrome's results come because it uses Apple's text display API but renders to a Retina-unaware 'offscreen canvas before scaling the text and displaying it on a web page.' Though Chrome Canary addresses the rendering issue, Lal Shimpi did note it still 'renders text differently' from Apple's Safari.

The 15-inch laptop's new Retina Display features a resolution of 2,880 by 1,800 pixels. Demand for the laptop is currently outstripping supply, as shipping estimates for it on Apple's Website are currently at three to four weeks. Retina Display-optimized updates of Apple's own Mac software have begun. For instance, Apple released new versions of Final Cut Pro X, Aperture, and iPhoto on Monday.

I think he means let the OS generate a mixed retina/pixel-doubled result. Things like windows, buttons, text, etc are all drawn by the OS frameworks, so there's no inherent reason why this couldn't be done. Only custom views and raster images would end up doubled.

Unfortunately for Chrome, it's entirely a custom view. I sincerely hope this is how it's implemented, since Apple has been pushing resolution-independence for years now. The developer documentation is littered with statements like 'one point is not necessarily one pixel'. In pre-Lion versions, you could use the built-in resolution independence to scale up the display by setting a hidden flag, although at the time it was glitchy and incomplete.

Aero-peek for multiple tabs is no longer working. After an intensive google search, I really can't find any solution. Everything I've found is from 2010, or earlier, and suggesting you need to add something to the Target field to enable this feature AND that it only works on Beta or Dev Channels. It's been working for me, on the stable version for months. Now, it suddenly stopped.

I installed Canary to see if it was the case on there, where I had no extensions involved or any inference, and it was the same thing. I also tried running in administrator mode, and adding that extension to the Target field: '-enable-aero-peek-tabs' in multiple ways, to the stable and canary versions, and I got squat. Feature's busted, somehow.

Also, I've tried this on both my Windows 7 computers. There seems to be a problem with Google image preview at the bottom of some search results. If you hover your mouse cursor over a thumbnail then move away the mouse cursor, the thumbnail stays 'zoomed'. The reason I hesitate to file it as a bug is because I have yet to faithfully reproduce it. It happens now and then. Neither could I be certain if this is the fault of this particular version of Chrome (21.0.1180.79), a plugin, or Chrome itself. It'll be great if others can help check.

And if necessary, ensure that the fixes get implemented in the stable version of Chrome v22.
