Highlight not working in chrome 32.0.1700.102 m. about maphilight

Ok, Somehow this issue seems to be present only in the windows version of Chrome, I dont have this issue in Ubuntu Chrome 32/Mobile version of Chrome.

Same problem here (Windows 7 Pro / Chrome 32.0.1700.102 m), solved by removing the line 131 to 133, seems to be a problem with the fade animation.

I saw this a few weeks ago in the Chrome aura channel (not sure how I got into that). Now that 32 is pushed out in the stable channel, the same issue is on both my Windows and PC machines.
I do know that 32+ made some changes to rendering the canvas using GPU acceleration, which I suspect causes the problem.
Disabling "accelerated 2D canvas" in chrome://flags fixes the issue for me, but that's obviously not a practical solution. I submit that this is likely a problem in chrome, and not in maphilight, but perhaps there's a workaround, or at least patch maphilight to remove the offending fade in, during the meantime?

Actually, there's a hacky workaround that keeps the fade animation working by checking opacity state before trying the animation. Still, seems like a Chrome issue, so submit a ticket with Google if you can, maybe we can get a change in sometime soon. Until then, at least this is working for me.

if (options.fade && !window.skipAnimateOpacity) {
    $(canvas).css('opacity', 0).animate({ opacity: 1 }, 100);
    if ($(canvas).css('opacity') == 0)
    {
        $(canvas).css('opacity', 1);
        window.skipAnimateOpacity = true;
    }
}

Thanks to Roobin for the workaround. #33 (comment)
