This pull request updates the FAQ article on troubleshooting local network access issues with Dynamic Web TWAIN in Chromium-based browsers. The main focus is to clarify the limitations imposed by browser security, improve user guidance, and outline upcoming user experience enhancements.

Clarifications on browser restrictions and user guidance:

  • Added a warning that the provided steps do not bypass Chromium’s security restrictions and that Dynamic Web TWAIN cannot override these programmatically. The instructions are intended to help users correctly grant browser permissions.

Roadmap and user experience improvements:

  • Updated the roadmap to describe planned user-experience enhancements, including explicit detection of blocked local network access and clearer messaging during service installation. These changes are designed to help users identify and resolve permission-related failures but do not modify Chromium’s security model.
  • Clarified that these UX improvements will be available in Dynamic Web TWAIN v19.3, and a supplemental JavaScript file for older versions can be requested from support.

Metadata update:

  • Updated the last_modified date in the article front matter.

I think we have completed some UI/UX improvements in 19.3, should we update the wording in the roadmap section accordingly? @tony-xlh

Yes, we can update the title "Roadmap", like "How Web TWAIN Prompts the User about the Permission"?
