Adding Option Buttons

The POV component enables you to use option buttons to switch between embedded browsers, and reduce the amount of space used.

Before adding option buttons, create a shared embedded browser.

  4. Double-click the browser object.

    Properties is displayed.

  5. Enter all^Hysl_pov as the object name.

  6. Click OK.

  7. Press Ctrl+D to exit Design mode.

  8. Navigate to another frame and return to refresh the embedded browser.
