Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/68.0.3440.25 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. chrome://flags/ What is the expected behavior? What went wrong? Mention what non-default items will look like on chrome://flags/: "Experiments 68.0.3440.17 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL FEATURES AHEAD! By enabling these features, you could lose browser data or compromise your security or privacy. Enabled features apply to all users of this browser." Add: "A blue dot to the left of an item will appear next to items not in their default state". Else one cannot guess their state. Even worse, some items have Enabled, Disabled and some Enabled, Disabled, Default choices. And on some items, when you change them from Enabled to Disabled, and restart, the blue dot's mouseover says "Experiment Enabled'!! Anyway before restarting the blue dot has no mouseover action. OK maybe indeed Disabling some items is considered an experimental action... so Disabling = Enabling... what a mess. Also on chrome://flags mention where to find the list of e.g., --use-gl=osmesa invocation flags/options in use/available. Did this work before? N/A Chrome version: 68.0.3440.25 Channel: n/a OS Version: Flash Version:

From https://crbug.com/436757 which was merged in the now archived duplicate of this bug https://crbug.com/245319 , I found how it should look. Maybe, there could also be information as to what set its state (user choice is already distinguishable through blue background, but remote experiments, command line or compilation code aren't) : "[X]Default (Enabled) [ ]Enabled [ ]Disabled or [X]Default (Disabled) [ ]Enabled [ ]Disabled" |
