1. Introduction 

If you are having an issue with a website rendering, for example missing content, or a blank page, you can switch the default rendering of the site ACR mode by using the following key sequences: 

  1. ACR1 - <control><alt><shift><1>
  2. ACR2 - <control><alt><shift><2>

After switching the page should reload.  If the page does not reload, the operation was not successful. 

Menlo maintains a listing service for sites that use ACR2 (aka pixel ACR) vs ACR1 (aka DOM ACR). 

Note: On a Mac, replace the control key with the command key, and use the option key instead of the alt key if your keyboard does not have an alt key.

5. Step-by-Step Troubleshooting Guides 

If switching modes resolves the rendering issue, then raise a Support ticket, ensure you include the following details:

  2. The Browser and version you are using.
  3. Results from testing in other Supported Browsers.
  4. The details of the rendering issue

By default, websites render using DOM ACR. To verify which mode the website is rendering you can view the logs.


You can also use Developer tools.

  • In the Elements Menu, search for __safely_dom_loaded

For Pixel ACR you will see:

<input type="hidden" value="{"mode":"r2"}" id="__safely_dom_loaded">


For DOM ACR you will see:  

time_surrogate_rewrite_inline_css":0,"mode":"r1"}" id="__safely_dom_loaded"
