I'm just trying to paste a URL from my clipboard into browserstack, but it won't paste.
This mentions when you aren't supposed to be able to:
You cannot copy from remote browsers to your browser: In Firefox and
Chrome, if the BrowserStack extension is not installed.
I do have "BrowserStack Local" installed, but it didn't work. I have tried copying the url from a text document, not a browser, and it still wouldn't let me paste it into BrowserStack browser.
First, you want to install the main "BrowserStack" extension.
But a workaround that worked for me without the extension:
Paste what you have copied in your clipboard into your browser's address bar (the tab that you have Browserstack open with). Then Copy it again out of the address bar.
You should now be able to scroll down and paste it into Browserstack's virtual browser as per usual.

When I click the "save as" button on Notepad and save it, it has the Edge icon instead of the Chrome one on the file icon and opens in Edge instead of ChromeImage:
Probably your default browser is Edge.
Set your default browser to Chrome.
https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95417?co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop&hl=en
As already informed by the other community member that on your machine, MS Edge legacy browser is set as a default browser.
That's why it is showing the Edge browser logo on the HTML file.
If you want to change your default browser then you can try to refer to the steps below.
Open Settings on your Windows 10 OS.
Click on Apps.
Click on the Default apps option from the left sidebar.
On the right side of the settings window, you can see the web browser option.
click on the browser will show you the list of the installed browsers on your machine. You can click on the desired browser to make it your default browser.
If you don't want to change the default browser then you can try to use the Open with option to open the HTML file with any other browser.
Select the HTML file.
Right-click on HTML file.
Hover the mouse pointer on Open with option. It will show you the list of the installed browsers.
You can click on the desired browser to open the file with that browser.
Got the latest code here: https://github.com/infostretch/qaf-report.
Extracted dashboard directory & dashboard.htm to the project root directory.
Ran QAF tests.
Opened dashboard.htm during test run & also after test run.
Tried to open dashboard.htm in Google Chrome, Firefox & Safari after giving permissions to access local files. But Dashboard.htm did not load anything. A spinning icon is displayed continously even after several minutes.
Am I missing anything here?
If you are accessing reports locally as file protocol, browser may have restriction to access local files. In such case follow the steps to allow local file access from file for the browser you are using.
Firefox:
go to about:config
set security.fileuri.strict_origin_policy:false.
Safari:
Click on the Develop menu in the menu bar.
Select Disable Local File Restrictions.
If develop menu is not available, Click on the Edit > Preferences > Advanced tab. Check "Show Develop menu in the menu bar.
chrome:
Close down your Chrome browser (make sure you close all instances if you have multiple windows open)
Go to Run and type the following command: chrome.exe --allow-file-access-from-file.
Hit enter.
Reference from local-report-access
I just want to give more clarity by making little corrections to the existing steps mentioned here:
https://github.com/infostretch/qaf-report#local-report-access
When you are opening report "dashboard.htm" from local file system, your browser may have local file access restrictions.
In that case, you can do following setings:
Firefox:
Enter "about:config" in the browser url field & click on the button "Accept the Risk & Continue".
In the "search preference name" field, enter "security.fileuri.strict_origin_policy" & click Enter & click on the toggle button towards the right to set it FALSE.
Safari:
Click on the Develop menu in the menu bar.
Select Disable Local File Restrictions.
If develop menu is not available,
1. Click on the Safari > Preferences > Advanced tab(in MAC, Safari > Preferences > Advanced tab).
2. Check "Show Develop menu in the menu bar.
Chrome:
In Windows PC:
Close down your Chrome browser (make sure you close all instances if you have multiple windows open)
Go to Run and type the following command: chrome.exe --allow-file-access-from-file.
In MAC
Open your terminal anywhere, make sure Google Chrome is currently not running, copy paste this line and hit enter:
open /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app --args --allow-file-access-from-files
Does anyone know a way to silent print via a Chrome App?
I'm developing a chrome app for a KIOSK system which runs Chromium OS. I need to print a receipt via a Chrome App, which I already did. The problem is that print dialog box appears once print process is started.
Is there any way around this?
This is IMPORTANT INFORMATION about kiosk mode Chrome app
Kiosk parameters can not be useful when you install app in developer mode (1) ( Parameters = "kiosk_enabled":true and "kiosk_only":true located in manifest.json )
But the parameters work after install the app from Chrome Store. Therefore be careful about this trick.
Now my kiosk app can run full screen and silent print (without preview).

I found a temporary (maybe not temporary :) ) solution for this subject:
SOLUTION FOR CHROME APP
Install your App to chrome
Create shortcut from this app to desktop.
Right click > Properties > Edit Target Textbox like the below (you will add "--kiosk-printing" parameter )
Before Edit: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --profile-directory="Profile 2" --app-id=eoaefbbbpgcbhgeilphgobiicboopknp
After Edit: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --kiosk-printing --profile-directory="Profile 2" --app-id=eoaefbbbpgcbhgeilphgobiicboopknp
Absolutely restart chrome for effect (close every tabs and windows on chrome)
Try to print
If you want to remove default header and footer (page address and date) : Open normal chrome print something > on printer preview > More Settings > uncheck "Header and Footer". Chrome ll remember this settings always.
(In fact chrome must provide this property on manifest.json too, but i couldnt find yet)
If you're specifically targeting Kiosk mode apps, you just need to set a flag.
Specifically, --kiosk-printing
I'm not 100% sure how to do that on a Chrome OS device in Kiosk mode. Maybe you need to set it at chrome://flags before switching to Kiosk mode.
Sorry man, it's not possible.
But you could evaluate some workaround: install a web server, make an httpRequest, and then print using a server side language.
In my case, I used php to receive the http request from the chrome app, and then, from php, I launched a java app for the print. I used java because with php (php_printer.dll) is not possible to print images (it's possible to print bmp, but the process to convert a png to an bmp is too long).
I know, it's a little tricky, but it works.
How do you check what is the default browser to open a html file, and open it with another browser? I'm having security issues on Chrome locally, but luckily the application I'm creating allowed me to run an air application 1st. So I am wondering could there be any work around for me to open the file in other browser other than Chrome?
I have created the app with forge, and have added in the chrome extension, but when i run with chrome, always show the following errors:
Currently it is not possible to launch a Chrome extension via this interface.
The required steps are:
1) Go to chrome:extensions in the Chrome browser
2) Make sure "developer mode" is on (top right corner)')
3) Use "Load unpacked extension" and browse to D:\mobile-app\test/development/chrome
but I really done with above steps, I don't know what happen.
and I want to know how can I use difference Android sdk and resolution simulator with testing?
thanks!
Chrome doesn't a way for us to automatically install browser extensions. Therefore, you have to install your extension manually.
To do that, in Chrome (see image below):
type chrome:extensions in the address bar
turn on developer mode
click Load unpacked extension
If you have a separate question about Android SDKs, probably best to ask that in a different thread, or contact support#trigger.io.
I had the same issue, using:
forge run chrome
to try to run the app in the Chrome web browser. I thought the 3 steps given were to install an extension which would then allow forge run chrome to launch the web application. I couldn't understand why, after installing the extension (with no button defined of course), nothing seemed to change. I didn't realise a Chrome extension version of my app, appearing on the toolbar, was even possible!
I should have used:
forge run web
to launch the app in the (default) browser.
