A pace.js page load progress indicator on every page.

Description from store

Pace4Chrome is a small extension for Chrome which injects pace.js (http://github.hubspot.com/pace/docs/welcome/) and a stylesheet into every page visited. This shows a progress bar (per default) on every page while it loads, complementing the default Chrome spinner, which by itself, is not very telling of the overall page load progress.

You can customise the way that pace.js acts and looks on websites using the options page on which you can pick from 16 presets and change their colors, or design your own loading indicators in the advanced editing mode, allowing you to modify the CSS code directly. If you're an advanced user and know regular expressions, you can also blacklist sites that do not interoperate well with pace.js. Pace will not be injected on these sites.

This extension does not collect analytics and will NEVER display or inject ads. The source code is available here: https://code.notro.uk/pace4chrome

---- Changelog ----
2016-09-18: (version 2.0)
- Updated the bundled pace.js.
- Presets have been updated to the latest versions, provided by pace.js.
- Restructured significant parts of the extension, added more comments.

New in version 2.0 is also a URL blacklisting feature for advanced users. The blacklist simply consists of a list of regular expressions, separated by linefeeds, ordered from most specific to least specific. Each visited website's URL is tested against these regular expressions. Pace4Chrome will not inject pace.js on any blacklisted URL. Example: ^https?:\/\/news\.ycombinator\.com.*$ -- This blacklists news.ycombinator.com. Invalid regular expressions are ignored.

Unfortunately I've had to break existing CSS settings in version 2.0, so you may be reverted to the defaults.

2014-05-17:
- Updated the bundled pace.js library to the latest minified version available on their repository (https://github.com/HubSpot/pace)
2014-02-16:
- Tiny release cleaning up the code just a bit & adding a license to the source files.
2014-02-15:
- New options page offering the ability to change the colors of presets, previews and sporting a new design.
- New Mobile Chrome preset based on 'Flash' but without the spinner. Looks like the indicator on Chrome for Android.
2014-02-14:
- Initial release

Не сохраняет настройки при переходе на другую вкладку сразу после выбора вида индикатора загрузки. Заметил, что эта функция перестала работать после очередного обновления браузера - поправьте, пожалуйста, если есть возможность...

When Choosing "Loading Bar", Settings will not save after relaunching chrome.

Customizability is the best aspect of this extension.

Great Extension in Chrome. Need some modification for better performance in future.

I love the feeling of control that it gives to the surfing experience.

momo Sam 2016-03-25

excellent extension and the options on this small extension are great

Dean Walker 2016-01-11

Such a simple app but so brilliantly executed. It is hard to believe that most browsers don't have this page load indication active by default. JUST DOWNLOAD IT, and change the colour to something bright.

Leith Marshman 2015-12-17

Brilliant, one of those simple tools you wouldn't think much of, but when you try it you realise just how useful it really is! Does exactly as it is supposed to! ^^

Bryan Stark 2015-07-19

very useful app! before using the app, I sometimes had no idea if the page was finished loading.

可以起到一个状态栏进度条的功能,不过感觉用处不大,因为我网速太快了么?

Jon Gregory 2015-03-14

This app is soo cool! I love the load bar, there are tons of options... its just amazing.

Dharmik Chauhan 2014-12-21

Nice extension. Is it possible to show this progress bar omni bar?

Дмитртй Павлов 2014-06-23

Перешел на хром с мозилы, нашел альтернативу всем используемым в лисице расширениям, только этого не хватало для полного счастья!Мелочь, но привыкаешь быстро к такой фиче)))

BlueTinyOwl 2014-04-18

Wonderful extension - I wish I'd found it earlier! Great for those days when the Internet connection gets wonky. Using the "Big Counter" - besides changing the colour I was able to change the display font in the style sheet.

Sinan Demirci 2014-03-24

Great little addon, but i feel the loading bar shows up too late because it doesn't show up when i enter a new website, there's always a delay. Another thing is that the speed of the bar could be faster when the site is fully loaded if those things are fixed, i would gladly give 5 stars :)

Marcus Leonard 2014-03-07

Finally someone did the obvious, thanks. Only thing I wish for is some indication that you're waiting for the server to respond. During this period, you still don't get a visual cue, so you're not sure you've made a request. Maybe just a small bar to start with. Maybe with a few dots/dashes at end to show that it's waiting.

I really like how it emulates the mobile chrome loading bar
