 * Hi there!
 * Q2W3 Fixed Widget is a great plugin and I use it on a couple of my sites.
 * There is a small bug which has appeared very recently in Chrome. When you load
   any page of my website and try to scroll it down, the screen freezes exactly 
   where the fixed widget is and does not scroll further down. You can try to scroll
   down with your mouse wheel but unless you either move the mouse a little bit 
   on the screen or start using the arrow keys it does not scrolls down.
 * This is something new for me as far as I have never experienced it before (I 
   use your plugin for quite some time). There are no ptoblems in Firefox or IE.
   I have two separate sites with Q2W3 Fixed Widget activates and both of them have
   the same issue. I have cleared all my cache and even deactivated all my plugins(
   except Q2W3) with no effect.
 * How can I resolve this issue?
 * Thanks and regards,
 * Todor

 * Hi!
 * Looks like that is a Chrome bug: [https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/chrome/vrhzwiBnvKA](https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/chrome/vrhzwiBnvKA)
 * I see a bug on your site, but on my sites no problems detected…
 * Is thee a freezing when q2w3 is disabled?

 * Thank you for the quick response, Max Bond!
 * No, there is no freezing when I deactivate q2w3.
 * Right now the plugin is deactivated. Please check it out.
 * My WordPress instalation is up to the latest version, as well as all plugins.
   I use Genesis Framework with a popular Genesis child theme. I have cleared all
   my browser history and cache.
 * Any thoughts on how to overcome the issue?

 * Just to add that I’ve tried with two different mouses on two different PC systems.

 * Well… Right now I have no idea…
 * It’s some kind of CSS + Javascript combinations causes this bug… So mouse and
   PC are not related. It’s just Site -> Chrome misunderstanding
 * P.S.
    You may try: 1. Later plugin init – `Use jQuery(window).load() hook` option.
   2. Disable MutationObserver API – `Disable MutationObserver` option. May be this
   bug is related to this API… 3. Change widgets order.

 * I have already tried option 2 and 3 before posting my question. Just in case,
   I’ve tried those two options once again with no effect.
 * Regretfully I don’t know how to try option 1. 🙁 I am not so competent.
 * Anyway, the good thing is that you’ve managed to replicated the issue on your
   system. it means that it’s a real Site- Chrome misunderstanding.
 * In case you figure out something, please share it here. I am out of options right
   now.
 * Thanks once again!

 * Option #1 located in Appearance -> Fixed Widget Options. Just enable it and clear
   the cache.

 * Thanks for the tip!
 * I have tried all 3 options, cleared cache a couple of times but… no luck.

 * It may have something to do with Smooth Scrolling feature of Chrome. I deactivated
   it in my browser from here —> chrome://flags/ and the fixed widget is working
   pretty well now.
 * But… this is just a quick local fix, I suppose. If it is a Chrome bug then quite
   a lot of people could be affected by it.

 * 3 months later, the issue is resolved somehow. I don’t know how. 🙂
