I'cant set overrides in developer tools in Minibrowser VCL sample

Post by demetriofa »

Using Minibrowser demo VCL, I want to setup overrides but for this I need to setup a folder and when I click should appear a dialog to setup the overrides folder

So my question is how I can setup overrides through code, or parameters. Or how I can enable to open the setup folder dialog.
Thanks

Hi,

I can't see the image and I'm not 100% sure what you mean by overrides.
Please, provide more details.

Chrome in devtools has a feature called local overrides that allows you to setup a folder that will be like a local mirror.
https://blog.shahednasser.com/overrides-in-chromes-devtools/ >> here more info.
To be able to use this feature i need to enable local overrides in configuration, and after this, in the sources section select overrides and click where it says "+select folder for eoverrides" it should open a dialog to set the folder and with minibroser is not opening nothing.
I want to build a minibrower with this feature working, if is in code perfect, if is manual but this setting stays saved is also ok.
Thanks!

I'm not a JS expert and I've never used that feature.

I'll take a look as soon as I can.

Hi,

I'm not a JavaScript expert and I didn't know that feature in the DevTools.

I run the MiniBrowser and I clicked on the "select folder for overrides" link. I couldn't see any event being triggered.

I also tried the official CEF sample application and that link has the same issue.

I couldn't find any command line switch, preference or setting to use a local folder manually.

There are a few DevTools features that need to be implemented in CEF and perhaps this is one of them.

I can only suggest that you ask about the status of this feature in the official CEF forum.
