Web object properties

 

 

 

Applies to:
Properties window overview (all objects)

The Main Web is the object to display and process your web content. Additional web objects give you more web content windows to use on the main dialog or on panels. You can display and process any web content or web logic there - for diverse purposes, such as showing content to the user, reacting to user actions, creating content navigation menus or controlling the overall logic of your web application. Invisible Web objects can play an important role for web logic processing in the background.

Detailed reference about the Web objects including descriptions of all properties and possible choices: Web object

 

The following gives you a quick overview over this window and what you can do. Please refer to Web object in the Reference for full details and usage of each property.
 

General
Here you assign a name and a startpage for your Web object and specify if should reload after a certain time or not, and if it allows scrollbars for its content. Additionally you can hide it in design mode and specify if links clicked on this web object should be forwarded (opened) in the MainWeb instead of the web itself, which can be handy for creating navigation menu webs.

Graphic
Define the position and size on the user interface, seen from the top left corner of the Main Dialog or the panel graphic where you placed the web object.

For hidden processing you can hide the web object by unchecking the Visible option.

Alignment
Web objects need one or more reference points, where they can align themselves when the application or the panel is resized. You can align a web object to multiple directions, so it will extend itself in these dimensions during a resizing process.
