4. Adding the Addressbar:

 
  • Now you drag an Edit object from the head dialog to your design area and position it on the background graphic.

  • You can resize the Edit control by dragging its selection frame like you did with the Main Web object .

 
  • In our example you should size it to about 350 pixels. Now we need to "tell" BrowserBob that our Edit control should serve as an addressbar, thus take a look at the properties dialog and select 'Adressbar Main Web' under Style.
  • In the properties dialog we also need the 3D option to be checked as shown in the screenshot to the right.

 



 
 
 
Actually, with an addressbar and a web content window, you have finished the basic work to create a usable webbrowser. Check its functionality by hitting the Test button on the Main window. In test mode, the properties dialog and the design area will disappear, and the generated browser will open. If your internet connection is active, you should type a URL and hit return into the addressbar to see your browser work. To return to design mode, just hit the Test button again.
