These properties define the interactive behavior of the Web Page Element and how it renders and interacts with users.

Behavior Settings

Scrollbars

  • Show Scrollbars: Enables or disables scrollbars when the content exceeds the element boundaries.

Mouse Interaction

  • Show Mouse Pointer: When enabled, the mouse pointer is visible, allowing users to scroll and click hyperlinks.

Screenshot Mode

  • When enabled, the element captures a screenshot of the webpage after loading and displays the static image instead of the live page.
  • Advantages: Improves performance, prevents unwanted interactions, and allows proper scaling when presentations are automatically resized.
  • Disadvantages: Dynamic content (e.g., animations, videos, interactive elements) will not function.

User Interactivity

  • Allow User Interactivity: Enables users to click hyperlinks within the web page element.
    • Note: Disabled if Screenshot Mode is on.
    • Limitation: Hyperlinks that open new windows/popups are not supported.

Address Bar

  • Show Address Bar: Displays an address bar for users to enter URLs.
    • Only available in interactive mode.
    • Security Tip: Combine this with Web Page Restrictions to prevent unauthorized browsing.

Scaling Options

  • Ignore Scaling: Ensures the element ignores Windows display scaling settings and renders at 100% zoom.

Web Browser Engine Options

Select the browser engine used to render the web page. Different web pages may behave differently based on the engine:
EngineDescriptionCurrent Version
ChromiumBased on the Chrome open-source project.Chrome 100
EdgeUses Microsoft Edge WebView.Edge 108
Internet ExplorerUses IE11, which may have compatibility issues.IE11

Cache & Performance Settings

Cache Control

  • Clear Cache on Start: Automatically clears cached data when the web element starts.

Performance Optimization

  • Frame Rate: Adjusts the frame rate (default: 30 FPS).
  • Render Mode:
    • Always on Top: Ensures the web element is displayed above other elements in the presentation.

Remarks

  • User Interactivity only allows navigation within the same window. Popups and new window links are not supported.
  • If dynamic content causes memory leaks, enabling Screenshot Mode may help improve stability.
  • Security Tip: If allowing user interaction, enable Web Page Restrictions to control which sites can be accessed.
