Top Navigation Responsive Bug in Chrome?

Thought I messed up the css on my homepage with the last update but the main navigation does not work in the live preview on themeforest too. Somehow it uses the mobile viewport for every windowsize. In this case it was 1920px, fullscreen. Chrome on top, ie10 below. Firefox and Safari are also fine. I disabled all extensions, did not help. Any ideas?

    OK I will check it out however on my Windows Vista Chrome 25.x your site works good. I know why this could happen but I don't know why suddenly some Chrome version will fake test for touch detection. Please respond with your chrome version and operating system - I will search what is going on with them.

    Thanks!

    With regards.

    On my Windows 7 and the latest Chrome (25.0.1364.160) also looks good on every resolution (up to 1920px).

    That is very bad(so many Yes), cause making any trick(for chrome) here could be impossible. It is either bug in chrome(I found one topic on same issue, but chrome developers couldn't reproduce this behaviour) or some kind of extension to chrome.

    Do you use any plugins for Chrome?
    Maybe you have touch screen in your computer?
    Any others ideas what could make your computer different from "normal" one?

    Thanks for help.

    With regards.

    Got it fixed... it's... drum roll... the wacom tablet. Deinstalled the driver, now it works. Tested it on two computers, both with a wacom tablet. Very strange.

    Hmmm that is good to hear there is something real causing such behaviour. I don't know how this tablet interacts with computer, and why it interacts its drivers with your Chrome browser. That it truly odd.

    Thanks for info - if any one else will come here with such issue I will point them here.

    By the way - you can always enable classic menu for big touch devices in

    Hypershot theme-> Apperance-> Customize header-> Classic menu for big touch devices

    With regards.

    Yup I remember. As this kind of test is popular you will experience same issues on other sites(rather new ones) but not necessary in same way as different developers use it for different things.
    I think it would be good for you to ask Wacom tablet developers why drivers interacts so deeply with chrome browser.

    With regards.

    Thanks Air for this trick:
    Hypershot theme-> Apperance-> Customize header-> Classic menu for big touch devices

    Worked for me. I do not have any hope that wacom will get this fixed because they still are not able to get their tablets to work on win8. But that's another story. ;)

    Menu is back as is should. Problem solved. Thx a lot!

    I've found the settings in the recent chrome version that causes the problem:
    open chrome://flags and deactivate the option "Activate Touch Events"

    In the current version it is set to automatic by default.

    Good info:-) Do you have any information what it was set in previous Chrome versions?

    With regards.

    It was added in beta builds in August 14, 2012. Touch Support was added to Chrome 21. Got the information from here:

    Thanks for the link. We will see how the situation will progress. However touch events where longer available in chrome, maybe just without multi touch. Anyway whole situation doesn't make anything easier in our scenario:-)

    With regards.
