Er, pink?
WorksForMe using Chimera/2002091704 on 10.1.5.
The problem started occuring with the Wednesday's build (2002091804), and I am using OS 10.2.1.
Did you use ChimeraKnight to install the build? Does it happen if you trash your old Navigator, and download a new one? Is there any output on the console?
I have trashed and replaced Navigator with each daily build. Didn't know about ChimeraKnight before--I just used it, and the problem is still there. I'm not familiar with the console. Where do I find it?

libpng error: Too much data in IDAT chunks That looks suspicious. What images try to load when you open the sidebar? Do you have the pref on to show favicons in the bookmarks panel? If you move your Chimera profile folder aside (in ~/Library/Application Support/Chimera) and run again, does the problem still happen?
I removed the Profile folder, but it didn't help. I have not implemented favicons. The only modification I made was to include the history list in the sidebar, through an entry in the all.js file. That worked fine for several days, prior to my ever having this problem. In the sidebar, there were icons at the top for bookmarks and history, and four icons underneath, including the delete button.
After much trashing/re-downloading, I have observed: in the September 9 original 0.5 release, the sidebar works correctly. But in the current build (2002092004), the sidebar functions, but the browser window does not resize, thus leaving the sidebar hidden from view.
I have observed the same thing. It only appears to not show it when the browser is set to fill the entire screen. This is with build 2002092004.
Do you have the window maximized (filling the screen) when you try to show the sidebar? Have you tried shrinking the window down first?
The browser is usually filling the screen, which is why I can't see the sidebar. If I shrink down the browser window, there is room for the sidebar to appear--otherwise, it stays hidden behind the browser.
It's my understanding that the change in the Sidebar's behavior was made to match the "correct" behavior of Apple apps like Mail, where the sidebar expands on whichever side has more room and the main window does not resize. The problem with this is that browser windows are quite commonly set to fill the entire width of the screen (especially on laptops and smaller monitors). In my opinion, the previous behavior of the Chimera sidebar, where it always expands on the right and resizes the main window if necessary, is much more appopriate for a web browser. My iBook, for example, can only display 800x600 pixels. To maximize my ability to view web pages, I always keep my Chimera window expanded to the full width of the screen and typically use tabbed browsing rather than opening new windows.
I completely agree--the previous method was far better. Why should I sacrifice a quarter of my browser window just to occasionally view the sidebar?
yes, after using it this weekend on my powerbook, i agree. having the sidebar go off the side of the screen is pretty crappy. It's non-standard, but i think this is one place where it's worth it. I'll flip the ifdef back and reopen the other bug that i closed when i "fixed" this.
