Thanks for the tests Lonnie. So it looks like it's a bug that was fixed in chromium 69 (and you were not seeing it in chrome because the latest stable release is 69 already, whereas I'm in the process of updating the chromium packages to 69 in Ubuntu). It's not necessarily something wrong with

Ok, I finally found a fix: sudo snap install chromium --candidate The command above installs version 69.0.3497.81 instead of 68. The features in the bookmark-bar's context menu work fine in Chromium 69! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is

I installed Chrome 69 (from https://www.google.com/chrome/), just to test it, and it did NOT have the issue. The issue only happens in Chromium for me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.

Yeah, I tried the one built from source. It looks a little different (my mouse-cursor became super small on my 4K display -- no big deal). t Ultimately, that (from-source) version too manifested the same issue. This is crazy. You can't reproduce the issue, so there must be something wrong with

This is not really surprising, as the chromium snap is currently built from the deb packages. This will soon change (the snap will be rebuilt entirely from source). If you're willing to test the version built from source, you can use: sudo snap refresh chromium --channel=candidate/from-source

I'm considering it. Here's something you might find interesting. I remove chrominum like this: sudo apt-get remove chromium-browser chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra Then I installed the snap of chromium like this: sudo snap install chromium To my astonishment, the bug remained exactly as before!

I understand your desire to keep away from closed-source software, however testing with google-chrome would be very helpful as it would help determine whether the issue is one that affects the upstream project, or if it's specific to the ubuntu packages. If the former, then we can forward the bug

Are you on drugs? (j/k). However, let's keep our diagnostics strategies open source please. I tried reseting the profile going here: chrome://settings/resetProfileSettings It didn't help. Later, I deleted this folder: /home/user/.config/chromium Upon next launch, Chromium recreated that folder

Thanks for the video, it demonstrates pretty clearly the problem, although I'm still unable to reproduce it on my end. Could you maybe install google-chrome (download the deb from https://google.com/chrome) and see if the issue happens there as well? ** Changed in: chromium-browser (Ubuntu)
