Renders the webview to a picture.
Component | Version | macOS | Windows | Linux | Server | iOS SDK |
WebView | 2.1 | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | ❌ No | ✅ Yes |
Parameter | Description | Example | Flags |
---|---|---|---|
WebViewerRef | Either the Web Viewer Object Name or the Web Viewer ID as returned by "WebView.FindByName" function. | ||
ImageType | The type of image to return. Either JPEG, PNG, GIF or BMP. Default is JPEG. |
"JPEG" | Optional |
FileName | The filename to use for the picture. Default is "image" with the extension matching the image type. |
"test.jpg" | Optional |
Returns a container with a JPEG picture of the webpage. You can store it in a media field.
Note for Windows: For Windows this function is only supported in FileMaker Pro when using Internet Explorer as engine behind the Web Viewer, but not when Microsoft Edge/Chrome engine is used. But the functions should still work if with Web Viewers created via plugin using WebView.Create and WebView.CreateWithControl as those still use Internet Explorer.
