New Locales in Chrome Editor 3.0 which means if you have your Chrome browser setup with Spanish, French, Portuguese, German, or Japanese. Chrome Editor should render nicely in your default language.

The new menu bar should visually break up the page so that while your coding in the bottom half of the screen it should be easier to not get distracted by the top blue bar.

I have to admit I wasn’t sure if Chrome Editor would ever be able to support Syntax Highlighting in an offline web app that is written purely in JavaScript in HTML, but it is possible.

Yes, it does work. It will make coding easier but it’s an easier interface for typing in your code with a color coded syntax output.

No you cannot Whizzywig edit from this view, you also cannot save currently. (You might be able to in the future.)

Simply you click on the color coded icon and you will see a new lined box appear press any key like a space or ctrl, you should then see the text appear to be colored with Syntax Highlighting.
