Give me back my vertical screen real estate!(inspect element... untick position: fixed... done)
I use the extension "Hide Fixed Elements" which is similar.
Note to web devs: use scroll-padding to fix this: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/scroll-padd...
There’s an iOS app called Unobstruct that provides an extension that will removed position: fixed elements. It helped here.
Probably, since position:fixed works: http://jsfiddle.net/brettadamsga/yeAhU/
Using latest Chrome and the topnav is fixed/doesn't scroll along with the page
I wish my browser had a setting called "disable scroll events and position: fixed"..
I hate that the header stays fixed, takes up like half the screen
You could add Mozilla's position:sticky attribute :P
It's definitely nonstandard, you can scroll below a full screen fixed div..
