Hi all,

I'm currently in the process of evaluating Basic4PPC.
I think it's a great product with many features, but i need do know this for sure before I buy a license.

It is very important to me that the WebBrowser control works nice and smooth.
Since i haven't bought a license (yet) i can't download any addidional librarys from this forum.

Could someone (maby a moderator) help me with this problem?
I really need to see how the WebBrowser control from agraham handles in a PPC device, before i buy a license.

Thanks in advance! :sign0085:

It will work as well (or not!) as IE works on your device as it basically is IE. Try this compiled demo that uses WebBrowser. It will only run on the device. I've included the help for the library in the zip.

Does the Basic4PPC mobile version also support auto scaleing when it is running a source file (instead of running a compiled exe)?

When i create some simple source code on the Desktop IDE, and run this sourcecode on two diffrent WM6 phones (with diffrent resolutions) the auto scaling doens't work.
A Fullscreen image appears fullscreen on a qVGA device, not not nearly fullscreen on a VGA device.
Is this becouse auto scaleing only works in a compiled .exe?

The device IDE should scale itself (strictly speaking it is the .NET runtime scaling it) to a VGA screen while still assuming it is running on a QVGA device. However images don't necessarily scale depending upon the way they are displayed. In the full version there is a way to invoke the IDE as VGA aware so you can use the full resolution of a VGA device in the IDE. AutoScale is only available for compiled applications. There is a fairly full discussion of AutoScale in my ControlsExDevice library help - but you need to buy the product to get access to it :)
