Re: Couple of questions about the browser widget

Yeah, there’s no problem with the browser display here either – it sizes correctly and no scrollbars are displayed. The issue is purely to do with the checkboxes in the property inspector being non-responsive. I’ll bug report it when I have a bit of spare time tomorrow. Terry... On 17/08/2017

Re: Couple of questions about the browser widget

Strange. when I run my little test stack and set the height of the browser + the 23 extra pixels, the vertical scrollbar goes away on its own. Gotta get my other machines back up and running so I can test on them. Why there would be scrollbars for a page with nothing in it is beyond me. Out of

Re: Couple of questions about the browser widget

Hi Mike - I don’t think it’s an issue in my case. I’m displaying pretty simple pages – just text and images, no columns or fancy layouts. Nothing that is displayed will be wider than the browser (images are resized before being loaded to ensure this) so no horizontal scrolling will be required

Re: Couple of questions about the browser widget

Maybe Try this: body { overflow: hidden; } Also, the internal width or height of content in the browser is not necessarily the same as the width as measured by LC. Things like the screen pixel scale can have an effect. Sent from my iPhone > On Aug 16, 2017, at 4:33 PM, Mike Bonner via

Re: Couple of questions about the browser widget

hmm. If the width of the page fits without need of a horizontal scrollbar, it should disappear, so maybe your code should check to see if its false first, then add the 23 pixels or not, depending. (I also can't test to see if its 23 on every platform at the moment) I'm wondering if you're just

Re: Couple of questions about the browser widget

Perfect! Interesting about the hScrollbar setting – I seem to be unable to deselect that (or vScrollbar) in the property editor – or change them via script (both are stuck on true). Thanks, Terry... On 16/08/2017 11:49 pm, "use-livecode on behalf of Mike Bonner via use-livecode"

Re: Couple of questions about the browser widget

Ty HH and jonathan, its working now for me. Terry: I have this in my temporary file.. Hi! window.onload = function(e) { liveCode.lcHeight(document.body.scrollHeight); } It loads my picture fine, and (now that i have capitalization right.. DOH) it sends a livecode message called lcHeight

Re: Couple of questions about the browser widget

If you post the line that sends a message from JS to LC, we should be able to tell you what is wrong. The code looks like this: JS liveCode.myHandler('JSMessage','test'); LC On myHandler pMessage, pData If pMessage = "JSMessage" then Answer pData End if End myHandler This will produce an LC

Re: Couple of questions about the browser widget

Hi Mike – yeah thanks, the temp file approach for setting the browser widget and getting an image to display works well so maybe easiest to go that way. I’m still steeling myself for a foray into javascript so haven’t tried anything on that front yet. I’ve got some Dropbox library related stuff

Re: Couple of questions about the browser widget

I haven't managed yet. (can't get it to fire, but hey.. did I mention i'm no good at javascript?) Also I noticed, setting the htmltext of the widget seems to run through a urlencode. (I had a sample page in a field and was setting the htmltext to it, but it got totally munged.. So I've been

Re: Couple of questions about the browser widget

For the second question, if your htmltext contains a javascript function that returns document.body.scrollHeight you should be able to get the height that way.I'm not any good at javascript, but how it would probably work would be to have something like this.. window.onload = function(e){
