The Web Viewer Object is used on a Screen with the sole purpose of displaying a fully functional webpage. However, it may also offers two interactive features:

  • The ability to configure a Layout to dynamically define a URL. See Creating a Web Viewer Object for more details.

  • The ability to view comments related to the Object (if any).

When you hover over the Object area, the Object toolbar icon (formatting-a-flex-grid-image-34z0xi3y ) appears in the top left corner. Click on it to reveal the Object toolbar as a sliding toolbar.

The Object toolbar includes the following icons by default (unless otherwise configured):

  • The Layout icon interacting-with-a-webviewer-object-image-5cndcuvm. Opens the Layout editor.

  • Comment icon interacting-with-a-webviewer-object-image-jw0us2rl. Displays any comment attached to the Object (if any). Depending on the comment configuration, the icon displayed can be a balloon icon, a question mark icon, or an alert icon.
