In the latest version (2020.2.19.0), Permissions.GeoLocation enumeration is missing. Your documentation still mentions that it is present - https://www.essentialobjects.com/doc/EO.WebBrowser.Permissions.html. This change is not found in your changelog also.

We used to handle this permission (location) within our code (WebView.RequestPermissions). What are we to do now ?

Hi,

We will update our change logs/documentation to reflect the change. This was removed in this build due to the fact that geo location permission no longer works properly since Google prioritize Google Map GeoLocation APIs:

You can remove your code to handle this permission since it has no effect for this permission.

Thanks!
