Chromium v22 seems to ignore data-z

[fghaas]

I'm guessing this is really not an impress.js issue, but perhaps someone is aware of a workaround or can at least confirm.

Presentations making use of data-z worked fine for me using Chromium v20 in Ubuntu precise, but since upgrading to v22 in quantal the z-axis no longer seems to work -- the presentation looks as if data-z="0", no matter what the actual value is.

In Firefox 16 data-z is being honored as expected, but unfortunately its JS engine is so slow that it's really not an viable alternative for me to use.

I have seen similar problem in my mac chrome before but i guess with the last version it is all gone.

I came across this problem today, and I think it's because the zIndex is given at the same time as the x and y coordinates, which makes the zIndex less important. That makes the zIndex is given first, and then the x and y coordinates are given. What I should be allowed to do is assign the transforms in the order that I put them in the HTML.

In Chrome 28 on Ubuntu 13.04 it's still not working (i.e. "tiny ideas" of the demo is inside the g and not behind)

Same problem on Kubuntu 13.04 raring + chromium 28 / chrome 28. both the same, data-z is ignored, firefox works but lags. Strange thing is, on my Ubuntu 13.04 raring + chromium it worked few days ago... don't know but maybe there are other packages i had installed that kind of "fixed" this issue?? But i really can't imagine what that could have been, had installed pretty much stuff :)

I'm on Ubuntu 12.10 with Chromium v28. I'm on a laptop and my intel gpu is blacklisted, so in order to make it render the fancy 3d effects I had to go to chrome://flags/ and turn on "override software rendering list".

The only problem I have is, that it randomly hangs up on some substeps from #280. However, I remember that it worked a few months ago without any problems (arround may, probably an older chromium version).

Firefox works, but lags.

Hi @fghaas, @bizmate, @jeroenvisser101, @zevero, @pyriand3r, @thomasjungblut , in an effort to clear up older issues/PRs we are pinging back to know if you are still tracking this request.

To give a little bit of context, recently a decision was made in the project to make the development more active and the first task is to clear up older issues like this one to see if the OP is still interested in keep it going.

Can anybody confirm if the issue still exists? A simplified example would help a lot.

[fghaas]

Unfortunately I can't really comment as I now use reveal.js as my primary means of writing presentations, and haven't written a new deck in Impress for a while. But thanks for checking back!

[jeroenvisser101]

Same as @fghaas, haven't used it in a while, but if I have time I could check back on this.

[bizmate]

I will need to look at my repo on my codebase tonight or tomorrow night and I will let you know or push an example somewhere so you can review it

[FagnerMartinsBrack]

Thanks guys, looking forward to it!

[jeroenvisser101]

Not going to be tonight, maybe tomorrow morning/night

[pyriand3r]

Hey guys,
sorry for my late reply. I haven't used impress for a while, too, but i will check my presentations made with it. Hopefully i will find time today, but i can't promise it.

[pyriand3r]

I have tested it and data-z is working for me in chrome 48 under arch linux. Just added data-z to first slides of the demo presentation... works fine though.

[bizmate]

I think this can be closed now. I have checked and it all works as expected for me

[jeroenvisser101]

Same here, cannot seem to reproduce!

[FagnerMartinsBrack]

Thanks you very much for your effort guys! Closing then...
