Brave Browser

Hytek

Hi all, a quick question. Are there any known issues running duet's web interface on Brave? It is my preferred web browser but I am getting Java script errors when trying to do things like display height map. Before I go down the rabbit hole of testing other browsers I figured I'd ask the question.

I should add Brave is up to date and RRF version
FIRMWARE_NAME: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet FIRMWARE_VERSION: 2.05.1 ELECTRONICS: Duet WiFi 1.02 or later FIRMWARE_DATE: 2020-02-09b1

Not game to try RRF3 yet, still battling my way through Ver. 2

Thanks in advance

@Hytek Not sure, haven't tried or tested the Brave browser. But it's based on Chromium, and other Chromium based browsers work fine. Is there any preferences for disabling Javascript? Personally, I use Firefox (on MacOS), but Chrome works fine too.

Not sure what you mean by ' Is there any preferences for disabling Javascript? ' If you mean can it be toggled on/off there is an extension that functions as a switch.

I am not opposed to changing browsers, just want to make sure I need to first

I think he meant to indicate DuetWebControl needs Javascript enabled.

Hytek

That's what I figured. I checked for any updates to javascript for brave but nothing. That's how I found out about the extensions.

Hytek

Just making sure, but Javascript is definitely enabled

this is the best place to post an issue detailing the errors etc

(but I'm not sure supporting additional browsers would be a priority in the immediate future)

@Hytek I had the same issue and was able to get it working with brave.
Can't remember what the solution was..
perhaps it is this settings "Block scripts to set to off":
Not sure if there is a more site specific fix for that when this was the really the fix for me.

I downloaded Firefox to give that a try. Worked no problems, was able to display the height map for the first time. Now I wish I hadn't

Hi,
I've been using Brave with my Duet Maestro for ages. I just turned off Brave Shields for the ip address for my Duet. See the yellow arrow in my screenshot - just click on the Brave icon and choose "Shields Down" by dragging the slider to the left Brave Duet.jpg

I ended up using Firefox. I set the web interface as my home page and that's all I use Firefox for. Seems wasteful but....
