bug on infowindow only in chrome

[thomasStrada]

Hi,
I'm facing a strange problem with infowindows, this bug appear only in chrome and opera (and safari i think, i didn't test...).

So when i open an infowindow, the close button and the bottom arrow doesn't show up until I zoom in or out, or I drag the map.

I use the windows directive, the 1.2.4 min version of angular-google-maps and chrome v38.

I have this bug it on the page I work on but also in the plunker example you made for the windows doc.

I made 2 screenshots of the bug from the plunker:

I tried the "max-width: none" hack on the map, like I saw in diferents places but it doesn't help...

Did you try messing with Google sdk versions ?

[nmccready]

If you need this fixed ( if it is truly an angular or this library issue) then you are going to need to pr to the legacy 1.2 branch. I have no plans to support this.

[thomasStrada]

I don't think it's only a 1.2 problem because the screenshots where taken with your 2.0 version.

I'll keep looking for a solution. test with different versions of everything...

[thomasStrada]

ok, i found the problem,the gmap version used was 3.17, if i only ask of the 3, it works well.
so you can correct it in your plnkr as well ;)

[nmccready]

I'm confused 3.17 fixed it or you bumped it in the exampl? ? And the error still occurs.

[thomasStrada]

yes I realized it as well, i should have confused with my broswers... I was so happy to see it work...

But, I did found out that there is no bug with chrome v37. So I don't really know what to do. I made a hack that worls but it's really dirty.

[nmccready]

Try 3.15 I know 3.16 is buggy.

[thomasStrada]

the 3.15 doesn't help

OK, please make a plnkr with this problem. Also it could be a css issue. Also are you doing any animation on markers? Animation is buggy in google maps in general.

[thomasStrada]

I don't do any animation on markers.
The css issue was my first idea but after a day looking this way I did not find anything, but I could have been blind.

I'm sorry better not make a plnkr for now (company work). But as I said, I also face the problem in your example for windows, so you can try with this.

[nmccready]

I can verify this problem, but I am not sure if it is directive's that are causing this yet.

I have tried numerous ways to fix this and I only see the error in chrome so I believe this is a chrome bug.

[nmccready]

If you want to pursue this farther please do (i will reopen it) I can't figure it (css) out but it appears to be a chrome and google bug.

[thomasStrada]

I had the same conclusion, I reported it to the google team. Thanks for passing time on it

[aesnyder]

I'm not sure I agree that it is a google map issue as I cannot replicate it in any of their api documentation examples.

[aesnyder]

@thomasStrada can you pass a link to the issue you reported to the google team?

[aesnyder]

I'm noticing that when the close button/arrow are not showing up correctly i'm actually seeing the missing arrow image flicker in the upper left corner of the screen map.

Are we manually repositioning the infowindow in any way?

Also is there any way to have a WindowModelParent without children? If so, how?

[nmccready]

Yes setPosition is being called more than likely. Usually after coords update. Ill have to get back to you gotta go to gym.

[aesnyder]

This is fixed in chrome 39 but not 38
