WebView problem
« on: Today at 02:04:18 »
Is there any way to tell MC *not* to use WebView?

When I click "Web View" button in MultiDataViewer, it freezes. I have to close and re-open it to bring it to live.
When I press View (F3) on PDF file, it is even worse: I get error message telling that WebView controller (whatever it is) is not found. I can't see PDF as bytes, ASCII, nothing at all, because WebView is apparently default viewer in this case.

In FileType configuration you can add external viewers for pdf. then it will open in that viewer instead.

Also if you remove WebView2Loader.dll from MC will fail to load webview and will fall back to old way and open it binary. (unless you have it already installed in the search path by another app)
<install dir>\Extensions\MultiFileViewer\WebView2Loader.dll

There is no error in the app log ?

Might in future version add option to enabled what filetype webview will load for so they can be easily disbaled.
