Ketcher layout issues in Chrome 18 Mac

[Joe Pettersson]

Hi,

There seems to be a layout issue in Ketcher v1.0b4, caused by Raphael,
that's effecting only the most recent Chrome Beta build (version 18+)
in both the Mac (Lion and Snow Leopard tested) and Windows (XP,
Windows 7 tested).

As seen in the included screenshots, it effects the layout of the
vertical buttons along the sides of the main drawing area.

Steps to replicate:
-----------------------
1. Navigate to demo Ketcher install (http://ggasoftware.com/ketcher-
demo/ketcher.html) using specified browser

Affected users:
-------------------
Small. Only those using bleeding edge Chrome installs are effected

Usability impact:
---------------------
Moderate. It makes usage of certain tools difficult, but not
impossible.

Possible causes:
----------
A Raphael rendering bug, talked about here:

Hi Joe,

Thanks for the information! I think we'll soon move on to Raphael 2.0, where the problem does not occur.

Cheers,

Mikhail
