SnapLine Changelog

Chrome Web Store release

Follow-up to 1.1.0: a guided troubleshooter for video sites, display controls in footer mode, seamless tab switching, a faster start and much lower memory use, plus a round of fixes.

new

• Fix the ticker on this site. A new guided troubleshooter in the popup starts from what you’re seeing (the ticker is in the wrong place, covers the player’s controls, hides the video, or doesn’t appear) and walks you to the fix. Point SnapLine at the video player or its control bar right on the page, jump straight to the slider that solves the problem, or carry anything unresolved into a prefilled bug report. Read the guide →
• Confirm placement, or report it in one click. After you choose a player or control bar, an on-page check asks whether the ticker looks right. Choose Looks right, Try again, or Report a problem, which opens a report already filled in for that site. Read the guide →
• Display controls in footer mode. When SnapLine runs along the bottom of a page, hovering it now shows the same controls row as over a video: playback buttons plus a settings button for placement, ticker height, text size and opacity. Read the guide →
• Text size right on the ticker. Both the video and footer display panels now include Text size, so you can make the ticker easier to read without opening Settings. Read the guide →
• A branded loading state. While the ticker starts up you now see the SnapLine logo with a subtle loading sweep instead of an empty black strip. It stays still if your system asks for reduced motion.
• A home for included sources. Providers and Leagues now separate your fantasy accounts from the sources that come with SnapLine: the NFL Scoreboard and RotoWire player updates. Neither needs an account. Read the guide →
• RotoWire overview. Opening RotoWire now shows what it adds to the ticker, its feed status and latest headlines, how long updates stay (six hours), and a single Show in ticker switch, instead of league settings that never applied to a news feed. Read the guide →
• Optional feedback after uninstall. If you remove SnapLine, Chrome opens a short Google Forms survey. It’s optional, needs no sign-in or email, and SnapLine sends no league, account or browsing data with it. Read the guide →

improved

• Seamless tab switching. Come back to a tab and the ticker is already on the current matchup with up-to-date scores. No more catching up, jumping between games, or scores counting up again for changes you already saw on another tab.
• Faster start-up. The ticker draws your last scores, settings and playback position immediately, then refreshes in the background, instead of waiting on providers before showing anything.
• Much lighter on memory. Player photos and team logos are now stored at the size the ticker actually draws them, and each tab keeps a bounded set of images. With several tabs open, SnapLine uses a fraction of the memory it did in 1.1.0.
• Easier on background tabs. Tickers in tabs you’re not looking at stop animating and refreshing, while quietly keeping track of new scores so they’re ready the moment you return.
• Controls that look right on every site. The controls row, display panel, minimize handle and site menu keep SnapLine’s own size, spacing and type even on pages whose styles used to enlarge, round or shift them.
• One ticker height setting. Ticker height now ranges from 50% to 150% everywhere you can set it, and it sizes the footer ticker as well as the video overlay.
• Full names for NFL leaders. NFL game leaders show the player’s full name instead of an abbreviated one.
• Tighter protections. Only SnapLine’s own pages can connect providers or manage your data; webpages can’t ask it to. Player and team images are fetched only from the supported providers’ own image servers.

fixed

• The ticker lands on the video, not the page. When a player sits beside other content, such as a chat or playlist panel, SnapLine now places the ticker over the player itself instead of a page-sized wrapper. Read the guide →
• Footer controls appear when you hover. Hovering a footer ticker reliably shows its controls row and hides it again when you move away; it could previously get stuck hidden or visible.
• Full kickoff times beside Game News. Upcoming NFL kickoff times keep enough room beside Game News, including with larger ticker text, instead of being cut off.
• NFL pregame briefs stay put. Upcoming NFL games keep their injury, weather and prediction details even when ESPN has not yet published a headline or box score.
• No more console warnings on busy web apps. On pages that constantly re-render, such as Google Forms, SnapLine no longer floods the page console and the extension’s error list with “postMessage” warnings.
• Quiet after an update. When SnapLine updates or reloads while a page is open, the old copy on that page now retires silently instead of logging “Extension context invalidated” errors.

Also included

• Under the hood. Broader automated testing, including real-browser checks of placement, playback and memory use, plus daily checks that catch changes in ESPN, Sleeper and RotoWire data before they reach the ticker. Support requests now go to support@snaplinefantasy.com, and the support service runs with tighter permissions.

Chrome Web Store release

A bigger game-day upgrade: player news, hands-on playback, final-score notifications and a more readable, reliable ticker.

new

• RotoWire player updates. Follow source-labeled player news in the ticker, with publication times, readable headline/summary panels and a separately enabled RotoWire Updates source.
• Screenshot attachments for support. Choose a screenshot, review its preview and remove it before sending. Reports include bounded, compressed images alongside your chosen context. Read the guide →

improved

• Playback at your fingertips. Pause or resume rotation, move to the previous or next matchup, and pin a matchup while its scores continue to refresh. Video overlays keep the controls above the player’s own control bar. Read the guide →
• A clearer support workflow. Submit an issue or feature request from the popup, receive a reference id on a dedicated confirmation page, and keep copy/download fallbacks available. Voluntary PayPal support remains separate from reporting.
• Readable ticker text at every size. A separate Text size setting adjusts typography without changing strip height. Long team names shrink to fit before less essential metadata is hidden or truncation is used. Read the guide →
• Adjust the view right on the video. Use the on-ticker Display controls to tune placement, height and video fit for the current website. Appearance settings also expose opacity, vertical position and text size. Read the guide →
• A simpler Simple mode. Simple shows one matchup across the score stage, with available projections and probability, while omitting the player spotlight and up-next rail. Detailed retains the richer player view. Read the guide →
• Smoother player and news transitions. Player cards and game-news headlines move vertically through their panels. Headline scrolling uses consistent speed and pauses, with timing that gives each item room to be read.
• One playback timeline across tabs. Visible tickers share a coordinated rotation timeline that survives service-worker suspension and iframe remounts. Hidden or inactive views stop consuming active rotation time.
• More useful NFL context. Upcoming games show local kickoff information and available game news. Live and final games present status, available odds and per-team leaders using football stat lines rather than fantasy points.
• NFL games connected to your fantasy starters. The NFL My Teams filter can use supplied starter-to-NFL-team mappings to prioritize relevant live games; it keeps the scoreboard unfiltered when those mappings are unavailable.
• Clearer probability and score presentation. Probability labels align with the favored team and stay clear of NFL status and odds. Score changes show signed deltas; projection changes use a quieter count-and-tint treatment.
• Faster, steadier imagery. Player portraits and team logos appear immediately while the image cache warms, reuse successful cached assets and retry transient failures without hiding usable images.
• Community support explained. The Support SnapLine page explains hosting, support infrastructure and maintenance costs. Occasional first-party support, review and sponsorship messages appear between leagues without cutting a league’s matchup cycle short.
• A fuller product and troubleshooting website. Explore ticker close-ups, provider guides and nine screenshot-led troubleshooting articles, plus searchable FAQ, release notes and a feedback form. Read the guide →

fixed

• Stale scores stay available. A failed refresh preserves the last successful league snapshot and its timestamp, with freshness or reconnect status instead of silently replacing useful scores. Read the guide →
• More accurate week and game-state handling. Regular-season week resolution follows the NFL calendar and local Tuesday rollover, including daylight-saving changes. Delayed unfinished games can remain associated with their original week.
• Remaining players and estimates. Player availability and remaining counts use mapped NFL game state rather than point totals. Inactive players do not contribute future projections; unavailable fields are omitted and local estimates are labeled.
• Provider and league removal stays removed. Confirmed removal clears the relevant extension-held data without altering the fantasy account, and an in-flight refresh cannot bring deleted data back.
• Better player-layout resilience. Player targeting and controls-bar placement better handle changing page layouts and manual selections. Footer mode remains available when a player cannot host the overlay. Read the guide →

Also included

• Final-score notifications. Opt in to browser notifications when a matchup observed live becomes final. Permission is requested when you enable the feature, and repeated refreshes do not repeat the same notification.
