Creating .NET object on CVI panel

[Mande]

Hello everyone,

I have been trying to get a WebBrowser .NET control to display on a panel created in CVi uir file.  I can do this with an ActiveX control but it does not have print functionality which is what I am trying to add for html files.  I have created a .NET controller function panel, I can call the functions to create an object, but I can't figure out to get a visible WebBrowser object on my panel.

I have been looking for some examples as well, I see some .NET controller examples, but nothing that displays an object.  I see some examples for LabView using the WebBrowser but that doesn't help me 😞

Thanks in advance,

Ed.

Hi Mande,

I do not think the functionality you are seeking is currently available in CVI, looking through the CVI documentation on the .NET LIbrary Overview "LabWindows/CVI is not a .NET control container. Therefore, you cannot use .NET user interface objects in LabWindows/CVI panels."

I do not believe you will be able to actually display your WebBrowser from a .NET controller.

Depending on your need, you may be able  to just do it in C, there is an example found here on the subject

Thank you James,

I had read that in the documentation and was thinking that it meant I couldn't drop them onto my panels in my UIR file at design time.    It was probably a case of how I wanted to read it.. wishful thinking.  I guess I will go back to the drawing board on this one.

Thanks again.
