Web Frame (DriveWorks Documentation)

Web Frame

The Web Frame control provides a frame that allows external web content, such as .pdf files and static web pages, to be rendered onto a user form.

When a DriveWorks form refreshes, the browser may reload the web page.

Reloading can occur when (for example):

This will cause unexpected behavior such as:

Browsing to a different page within the control will reload the current value for the URL property.
Videos being played within the Web Frame control will re-start.

The following items should be noted when using this control:

This control does not have a caption. Consider adding a label control if a caption is required.
The tooltip property is not supported for this control.
The Z order of a Web Control is ignored when running a specification in DriveWorks Administrator or User. The Web control will always appear in front of any other control placed on top of it. However when running a specification in a browser (using DriveWorks Live) the Z order is honoured.
