More about this extension



Resolution Test changes the size of the browser window for developers to preview their websites in different screen resolutions. It includes a list of commonly used resolutions as well as a custom option for you to input your own. It also gives users the option to turn on Google Browser Size, more info on that here - http://browsersize.googlelabs.com/

How to use:
1. Restore your window (un-maximize it)
2. Click the resolution test icon in the top right of your browser window
3. Choose a resolution, press custom and input desired resolution, or select multiple resolutions and press "View all selected".
4. Your window will be resized

    Would be sweet if I could add custom resolutions. Other than that it’s great!

    :D Glad you like.

    Its my first ever extension so I’ll work out how to add resolutions permanently, but for now I’ll put a form on so you can define it yourself.

    Are there any resolutions you think I’ve missed?

    As per request I’ve added a custom option, are there any other resolutions that should be listed as standard?

    I have version 1.4 installed and the extension does not auto-update, but how strange, no “Download” button available for this version 1.5…

    I forced the update this morning using “developer mode” & “update extensions now”
    So now I have v1.5 installed – good
    Just FYI, there is still no “download” button available here…

    Hmmm re-uploaded and the download button is back now, wierd.

    I think the auto-updates are something to do with the cache, sometimes I have to clear the cache before even force update works.
