Leveraging the plugin template and primarily the HTMLBuiltinId for a layout item, is there a post-creation way to change the properties? An example would be to change the URL in response to an action. Or get access to the doc obj model.

After realizing I couldn’t track down post creation accessibility, I attempted to use the WebBrowser in a XAML file and create a class based on a custom view item. WebBrowser had compatibility and scripting issues. Wondering if it makes more sense to grab a third party chromium control and head down that path?

The Smart Client View and Windows Tool plugin sample, the View Edit tab, can show you how to change the URL property.

We have no experience doing a chromium control at Milestone Technical Support. I am hoping that other partners might share their experience as answer to your question.

Thanks Bo - that’ll get me moving in the right direction (I hope)…

For those who find this and may be interested I successfully integrated the CefSharp browser into a plugin tab. Am happy to provide the modified template as desired.

I would be interested in getting ahold of this template.
