The SaveAs option on the context menu in the Console tab of the Developer Tools control is not working in v16.1.95 of the EO Web Browser. Selecting the option does nothing whereas in the latest version of the Chrome browser it will open the SaveAs dialog. Is this a bug in the EO Web Browser or in release 49 of Chromium?

Hi,

This is not a bug in Chromium browser engine, it's a limitation on our end. The basic guide line for us is we try to include the core browser engine but not the "shell". For example, we only have the WebView that covers the web page rendering area, but does not have the address bar and favorite links. While most of DevTools features are handled by the core browser engine, some of them are handled outside of the core browser engine and related code are not included. Another example is "Add Folder to Workspace". This menu item does not do anything either because the handler code is not included.

EO.WebBrowser is primarily as a runtime browser engine rather than a debug tool. So I would recommend you to debug the page with the regular Chrome browser instead since that's the only place where everything is included.

Thanks!

The reason for using the Developer Tools from the EO.WebBrowser was that a particular Web site causes the browser to freeze up randomly which is not seen when running under Chrome or IE. Is there anything else in the EO.WebBrowser that may help in debugging this?

Hi,

A freeze up maybe a problem inside the browser engine instead of in the page. If you can PM us the page Urls and steps to reproduce we can look into it from here to see what we can find.

Thanks!

Unfortunately, the URL is not publicly accessible and reproducing the freeze up could take hours or days due to the randomness.
