Duet WiFi - User Interface

Danal

The free chrome plug-in "Local Storage Manager" may help give you insight as to what is going on.

I have downloaded the suggested extension and can see that the settings data is recorded but not retained when the Duet interface is closed down. I have also deleted the Chrome default profile and allowed it to build a new one but the problem still persists. (the option to clear data on close down in Chrome settings is not enabled).
Any other suggestions welcome.

Perhaps you have disabled cookies?

Can you try creating a new user profile on your computer and testing from that account?

Try:

chrome://settings/content/cookies

In the omnibox. Even though it says "cookies" there are settings on that page that affect local data as well. They are fairly self explanatory.

@dc42 Just curious is there a reason that the settings are not persisted to the SD card?

@msquared The next DWC release will do exactly that:

DWC settings are uploaded to and downloaded from the Duet board by default

There are advantages and disadvantages to both approaches. You might want to use different settings on a smartphone or tablet compared to a PC, and with the settings stored on the SD card, you won't be able to do that.

OK I Have tried most of the suggestions and checked settings again. I toggled all relevant settings in Chrome on and off and deleted all the cookies and tried again. Now I can see the Duet cookie in Chrome settings and if I make changes to DWC, apply settings and then close Chrome and re open DWC, the settings are retained BUT just one time!

Are you sure you don't have "Keep local data only until you quit your browser" enabled in Chrome?
