Hi,

I'm running SC 2.77 in Standalone mode on Snow Leopard, and have a set of web viewers on a layout that users will need to zoom 150% or 200%.

I'm finding that if I use the applet, images don't resize. But, if specify a url that includes style=noapplet&width=105 ( the width of the web-viewer ), pdfs immediately acquire scroll-bars, whether at 100% or higher.

My URL: "http://192.168.1.242:8020/SuperContainer/Files/PTNT/Documents/2868935/9?style=noapplet&Width=105"

I'm following the recommendations of Sam in a post from 2008, quoted below.

Is there anything I can do to get web viewers to scale appropriately? If necessary, I can switch to containers. I've had better luck with them in the past.

Thanks,

-jb

"Try using a noapplet style and hard-coded width, for example:

http://localhost:802...&style=noapplet

What appears to be happening is, the applet isn't able to detect the zoom state of the filemaker window, because its width is simply set to 100%, which the web viewer seems to interpret as the width of the web viewer when zoomed to 100%.

If you don't use the applet, but use a dynamic web viewer width, that doesn't work either because the width in the URL reflects the zoomed state, which means SuperContainer returns a larger image, but it gets zoomed again by FileMaker, so the image is too large.

Setting a hard-coded width in the URL with the noapplet style solves this, as the image is generated in SuperContainer at the 100% zoom level, then FileMaker zooms the image accordingly. "

Zooming and SuperContainer don't work too well together. You may be able to find a way to size it properly using the size parameters, though I don't have anything to recommend off the top of my head for you. If your layout is too small to read easily I recommend increasing the font size rather than using the zoom. If it is also a print layout you may want to consider using one layout for printing and another layout for working with in FileMaker.
