Black dot next to tool bar

Hey, so I noticed this thursday for the first time when was having a game, but there is now a weird black dot at the top left side of the screen, next to the tool bar, in all roll20 rooms that I have tried since then, and it has never been there before, so must be some kind of glitch, I asked some friends and they had it too. It is just a cosmetic thing as far as I have seen but it's pretty annoying since after noticing it first time just can't stop seeing it. Hopefully whatever caused that can be fixed. :)

I thought it was just me! Happens even with all extensions turned off, logging in under my (free level) testing account, Chrome and Firefox.

... and now I can't stop seeing it, either...

Hmmm... looks like it is an empty div named "durationTooltip"? A new feature in the works?

It could have something to do with SFX. You could probably hide it with Stylus, but I wouldn't bother. It will probably be gone soon. Pay no heed to this strange visitor from another planet.

Made a thread about it before Keith directed me here. Yeah, it's weird. I thought it was a glitch until I saw "durationTooltip". It's probably a WIP feature and something the devs didn't mean to leave onscreen. You can remove it by inspecting and editing the element.

I got the same issue, doesn’t matter if I use Firefox or Chrome. The other players noticed the same dot on their end to when I pointed it out.


Confirming having the same issue, both Firefox and Chrome as well, all extension disabled.

It is the div that is used to show the playback duration on a track.  If you start playing something, then point to it (until you get the numbers next to the mouse cursor) it will disappear until the next time you refresh the page.  Its initial position is just not ideal.

Way to spoil the mystery, there.
