WebView for display of help-file-like html page

[michael.danzer]

Hi,

we are using WinCC OA 3.15 and have to integrate online help content (like the help in WinCC OA) into our UI. The help html source we used as an example was not loading completly. If i open the html page in Microsoft Edge it works finde, but if i am loading it inside the WebView Widget, it does not load the content tree on the left side which is used for browsing through the help. I attached screenshots of how it sould be displayed and how it is displayed in WebView. Maybe i missed some configuration settings in the web view or the html source has to be structured differently? Does anybody use the WebView for displaying Help content or similar things?

I used this code to load the html file:

Code: Select all

this.load("file:///" + getPath(DATA_REL_PATH, "/WebHelp/openpcs.htm")); 

Thanks
Michael

3.15 WebView EWO uses the old WebKit browser, so it might be that while things work fine in standard ones, they cannot be properly displayed in the WebView EWO.

Give it a try in 3.17 (where the new WebEngine browser has been integrated) or try the PDF Widget (3.16+).
