web widget

Post by Samuele » Tue Sep 12, 2023 4:19 am

Hi, I'm making a mobile app from a website, obviously the easiest way is just to use the website already existent and just show it in an app, for doing this I'm using the browser widget. It works quite fine but the only problem is that there are 2 magnifying lenses that are quite disturbing for the graphic... is there a way to delete them?
Or do you have maybe another idea for making it?
I saw there was already a thread about it but I didn't see any conclusions...
Thanks for the help!
Samuele.

I don't see a way to do that. But for me the zoom controls only appear when scrolling and disappear when scrolling stops, which doesn't seem too intrusive. There are lots of questions about hiding them if you search for "hide zoom controls on Android webview" but no easy way to do it in any language.

Hello Samuele,
Maybe you have access to the website code. If so, try putting

Code: Select all

user-scalable=no
in the metadata of your website. Look at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/227 ... tribute-in

I hope this helps
