You know that Google Chrome is the preferred browser for previewing mobile apps when developing with Maximo Anywhere. However, it seems that Google Chrome automatic updates are a big pain because sometime the simulator stops working correctly.
I know there were at least 3 problems caused by a Chrome update:
- Menu is not displayed correctly
- Mobile app is not responding to clicks
- Javascript error: win.doc.getCSSCanvasContext is not a function
I these situations you can always open a PMR to get a fix from IBM but I believe there is a better strategy. Use Chromium !
It is the OpenSource version of Chrome sharing the same code base but with no automatic update.
You can download it from here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/crportable/files/?source=navbar
I'm currently using Cromium 44.0.2383.0 and I no longer have to worry for a bad update.
