Addons panel not showing up in development

See original GitHub issue

In development, i.e. when running start-storybook -p 7007 -c .storybook the addons panel with Knobs and JSX (see screenshot) disappears. However, when building storybook w/ build-storybook -o dist it is available. Also not all addons are affected, but only those that are positioned in the bottom panel (see screenshot). Other addons such as @storybook/addon-backgrounds operate as usual.

I do not see any error messages being printed out. Any suggestions on how I could debug this?

@ndelangen This was supposedly fixed in 5.1.7 #7080 #7073 but looks like it’s still affecting users in 5.1.8. Any idea what’s going on?

@frankstallone If you do localStorage.clear() in normal mode (not incognito) does that fix it?

Hi there, thanks for the quick reply. It seems the problem has been with the Chrome browser. All others browsers DO display the addons panel. Yet for some reason even after updating Google Chrome to Version 75.0.3770.100 it does not show.
