44532 in tls/node the chromium remote inspector is disabled by default on 8 5 release, even when it is enabled by rohtmlwidget enable inspector flag, or rohtmlwidget startinspectorserver an extra registry value has been added (”enable web inspector” in the “html” registry section) to enable the inspector this ensures that users do not unintentionally enable the remote inspector on production software, which is not secure and may increase memory usage chromium has dropped support for desktop style scrollbars brightsign os 8 5 is shipped with overlay scrollbars overlay scrollbars overlay on graphics and are only displayed when a page is scrolled they disappear when the page is still chromium87 uses separate javascript contexts for data urls it is no longer possible to inject javascript from the data url and access window context data urls no longer share the same url domain with the origin domain it is no longer possible to access cross site data from data urls chromium has added support to view remote device screen through inspector view this is not supported on brightsign devices due to architectural differences between desktop chromium and brightsign chromium has added more stringent security policies around cross site requests some of these security options can be disabled if needed but, unlike our security params ( rohtmlwidget docid\ xljq5 yhdma2ssmpzimtk ), these
