We've been the Browsing Carousel object in our action and been happy with it. We've notice that Google have changed the appearance of the object and it now looks like a list and not a carousel. Has anyone else noticed it? Is there any way around it to make it look like a carousel again.
Yes. That's the thing I have also noticed in new Google Assistant design and I don't see any updates in the documentation or in Dialogflow console.
So there is nothing available until now to get it back to carousel like the one in the previous version. So have to wait for some updates from Google.

I am developing a little extensions called "Tab Bundler", which in short saves all the open tabs in a window into a bundle that can be opened with the click of a button. When a bundle is opened however, no history of how the user got to that url is saved, ie. the user can't click back to see how they got to that url. This is functionality I want to implement. I looked for a while, googling, looking thoroughly through the google chrome extension documentation: http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/history.html. But I couldn't figure out how to get this information without tracking it myself. Is that the only option I have? Any thoughts would be really appreciated.
Thanks!
Look, many people tried this before. You are not alone in this quest!
At the moment the answer in Google Code was: anybody asked for it when they where developing the History API. Then there's no elegant way to access tabs' history.
Of course, you can hook chrome.tabs.onUpdated to record every page and make your own tab's history...
You could probably hook chrome.tab.onUpdate as well as some state or focus change hook to correlate.
I really want this, please make it!
I'm writing a Spotify app. It generates a playlist of songs which appear onscreen using the default playlist view. How can I allow the user to go in and delete songs from this list? Selecting a track and pressing the delete button does not do it.
Thanks

I cannot understand what you mean. Please share screenshots / code of what you are doing. Moreover, what is the "default playlist"? Do you mean the play queue? I have also written an application that edits playlists but do not have the problem you describe. Remember also to specify what API version you are using.

I'm interesting in developing Chrome Extension for Gmail.
Unfortunately I couldn't find any tutorials on this subject (demonstrating a simple action as adding a button).
I'm looking for adding a button to the compose toolbar, and creating a new tag/folder in gmail account.
Please, Help!
You should check out these APIS at https://github.com/joscha/gmailr, it is a fork of https://github.com/jamesyu/gmailr but the original author has been too busy to update it.
How do I create an always-present sidebar in a Chrome browser extension? Do I have to inject something into each page the user views? That seems weird because it would disappear every time the user navigates to a new page. Also, I'd be worried about my code and HTML interfering with the page and I can't possibly test every page on the net to be sure it works everywhere.
It looks like there was an API for this that was just removed? Is this feature dead for good or are there any plans to bring it back?
You have to inject HTML into every page. There was an experimental Sidebar API for a while but it was never developed to state that the Chromium team was happy with. They are still keeping the issue open but it is not currently being developed. You should star the issue if you wish to get updates on it's progress.
Update:
The feature is removed and there is no further development on it.
Quoting from their site:
We will not be proceeding with this feature request. We recognize that there is a significant number of you who will be disappointed with this decision, evidenced in part by the many stars on this issue. We debated it extensively, both inside the team and with members of the community. In the end we decided that the WontFix resolution was more in keeping with Chrome's core value of simplicity.
I am working on a search engine project that will point a user to a page from, say Google, and show them where their search terms are in the document. Most of us search Google and know that sometimes you have to CTRL-F to find where that word appeared on the page (especially on long pages). I know some browser plug-ins can help with this - but is there a way to wrap the page in a frame and do it (even if you don't control the site being displayed)?
If not, what browser plug-ins might you recommend that I could customize & brand so the user can accomplish this task? I'm guessing you could also write a Kinitex plug-in or GreaseMonkey script - but I'd prefer to not go any route that a newbie user wouldn't immediately understand.
Thanks in advance for your help!
You can get source code of the page with curl, add javascript function to it and then pass result to the user. Just like server-side GreaseMonkey. :)
In google Chrome try Google Quick Scroll, it does it.
