hiding menu and toolbars in webclient on solution open

Postby dpearce » Thu Dec 23, 2010 9:57 am

Hi,

I am just optimizing my solution for webclient.

Whilst i can resize the web window using the window.resizeTo function in javascript once the window is open, I would also like to be able to open my solution with the toolbars and browser paraphenalia off.

Is this something I would have to set-up in the webclient default CSS, or where could i alter the code so that when the webclient fires up it switches the toolbar and menubar to off?

This would be helpful in order to get the solution at a fixed size within the browser, without having to worry about scroll bars appearing because the windon is too small due to stuff at the top?

is this possible?

From withing a page displayed in a browser there is no access to the "chrome" of the browser, with chrome being the toolbars, status-bar, menubar etc.

The only option to get the browser started without all this chrome is starting the browser in kioskmode and I do not know if all browsers support that. I think I saw at one time that it is possible in IE.

But to be clear, the user has to start the browser in a specific mode, already before he/she opens a specific page (in this case a web client).

Thanks Paul,

I can at least resize it to what would be an average allowance for the tool and menu bars using a 1X1 pixel piece of html javascript, that seems to work.

I am still having problems with a vertical scroll bar on a table view within a tabpanel. Everything is 2 px less, but I just get the servoy numbering at the bottom 4-5 pixels under the screen and it puts a vertical scroll bar in! Been through every nested tab view 5 times!!!

Maybe I will leave until I next come across, but its driving me nuts!

This one is driving me nuts too.
Seems that the paging is causing a vertical scrollbar to show up...
