Hello Mario,

I am near to understand your point, however, I am not completely sure. Please, let me to explain. Certainly, the situation is like you describe, and, an error occur, however, it's not a fatal error, that is, once the user back to the main view, everything in that view continue working as expected, even the ability to go again to the another view.

So what's the point to check if "self" is defined or not? I mean, if the error occur, your code after the error is not executed, but, nothing else... I supose that you do something if the error did not occur, but, if the error occur, because the user go back to the main view, then you do nothing (because your code is not executed) and then nothing happens...

If you need from the main view that something is well executed in the another view, then you can use a flag variable, so, if the done event of the Http control is well executed, your flag variable is "true", for example, and, if the error occur, that flag variable can be "false" (you can set to "false" when enter the view), so, you can check that flag variable in the main view, so you know if the work is done or not.

Another possible idea is to use the app's ChangeView event, which allows to look what is the next view and the prev view: we can event prevent the user to change to a view from another, for example, until some code has been executed. So please, let me know if all of these can help you and just post here if you want to explain me a bit more about or what to place any questions.

Hello John,

We can use the MouseEnter and MouseLeave events of the Image control.

Supose we set an "a.png" to the Image's Url property, then, in the MouseEnter event, we can write something like this:

... so we are changing the Image's Url to "b.png", and, in the MouseLeave event we can back to the original image:

Hello John,

Yes; must be some issue related with the cache and the Frame controls. I am sorry. I wil take a look when possible and try to see what can happen. Certainly the cache can have some issues like this: I'll try to do my best, but, certainly some issues can appear related with the cache and in particular with the Frame controls. I will take a look when possible!

Thank you for your kindly words, John!

Hello John,

Yes; certainly in the previous generation of AB we have the Master View. Instead of that, in the new generation of AB we have the Frame controls (not IFrame controls), which allows to do the same (share stuff between app's views) but in a more powerful way, since we can have several Frame controls inside an app's view, for example. You can take a look at the Frame sample app.

Hello John,

You're welcome, sir! :-)

Hello John,

We can attach a "contextmenu" event handler to the document body, for example. It's our duty also to add the right HTML code in the document body to conform the menu. Since this can require some CSS rules, and, even when we can add these to the document body from Javascript, I decide to add in DecSoft App Builder the ability to add styles to our WebExtensions contents, in the same way than we already can add Javascript to it.

There is a new release of the product available: please, take a look at it, in particular to the new "WebExtension5" sample app.

Hello John,

By content page you mean the page of the browser's active tab or you mean one of your app's views?

Hello John,

Always thank you for your trust!

Hello John,

Humm... please, be sure that you install the WebExtension properly, and then navigate to a new tab in order to see if works as expected: I try the WebExtension4 sample app with Firefox, Chrome and Edge and works as expected. Update Chrome may can help?
