Cannot take fullscreen screenshot of chrome://settings page

Reported by t...@timcroydon.com, Sep 18 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/60.0.3112.113 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Navigate to chrome://settings
2. Expand 'Advanced' so content extends beyond visible area
3. Open Chrome devtools
4. Open command line: CMD-SHIFT-P
5. Type 'screenshot' and locate 'Capture full size screenshot'

What is the expected behavior?
Chrome downloads screenshot showing full page, not just visible area.

What went wrong?
Chrome downloads file successfully, but it only shows visible area. This functionality is working fine on normal web pages - it's only the settings page that it doesn't work.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 60.0.3112.113  Channel: n/a
OS Version: OS X 10.12.6
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 27.0 r0

For info, I was trying to capture the screenshot for use in an internal tutorial.

chrome://settings uses Polymer framework and it clips everything to the viewport as you can see by inspecting the page in devtools. Not sure this can be fixed. While this behavior breaks one of the historical aspects of the web where everything is in DOM and native browser scrolling is used, especially on really small and simple pages like chrome://settings, this approach is more and more common so maybe this is where the Web is heading to. Simply scroll the page and make several screenshots, then stitch them together.

Able to reproduce the issue on the latest stable(61.0.3163.91) and the latest canary(63.0.3218.0) on Windows-10, Mac OS 10.12.6 and Linux Ubuntu 14.04.


This is recent feature and is not available on older chrome versions: 55.0.2883.95.

Yeah, we try to determine the full height from the contents size. On pages with manual viewport implementation (like Polymer) that does not work, since they limit the actual height to the visible viewport. Not sure we can do something bullet proof here.

Inspecting chrome internal pages is not supported.
