And of course when you try to get rid of that annoying bar at the bottom, it moves you back to the newest streetview capture.

Also, it's in reverse chronological order, which is odd when going left to right.

Not seeing this. All is normal on my end (MacOS, Chrome 109.0.5414.119).

For me it's happening at both work (Windows 10/Chrome) and at home (Linux Mint/Vivaldi). It's not every time, but it's often enough that it's not worth it to screen for it and keep trying with new incognito windows until I get one that doesn't.

That change happened to me while I was using it. I measured something and it was totally fine, and then I moved somewhere else to measure something else, and it was different.

Even worse is that following a link to old Street View doesn't show the bar, but if you open and close it it will take you to the latest one. :rolleyes:
