Is Border=None possible?

[Dorwol]

Hello Tracker-Team,

I've a short question: If a document is opened, there is a 3D-Border around the viewer-control. Is it possible to disable this border? >>> Like Border=None

[Corwin - Tracker Sup]

Sorry, but no. We are thinking to add such possibility in near future.

[Dorwol]

No Prob! THX4feedback!

[Vasyl - PDF-XChange]

In new build(coming soon) call please:
SetProperty("View.ShowWorkspaceBorder", 0, 0)

[Dorwol]

Marvelous!

Hi Vasyl,

I tried this new Property out, but if I open a document, the 3D-Border is still exist.

Also in the documentation I can read the following note: "the effect can only be seen when there is no opened document.".

Mmmh, I think this Property is useless, if the 3D-Border is always back again, as soon as I open a document.

Is there any changing be planned in next build?

[Corwin - Tracker Sup]

We will try to add possibility to remove document border in next build.

[Dorwol]

Thx 4 reply and I've found a little workaround for me.

I placed your control in a framecontrol and set the Left/Top/Width/Height-propertys with a little distance to hide the 3D-Border. That's OK me at this time!

[John - Tracker Supp]

Excellent !

Have the same behavior - can't get hidden 3D border around the viewer control.
Setting properties ShowDocumentViewBorder and/or ShowWorkspaceBorder have no effect.

Is there any way to get this border hidden even when document is opened?

Hello vzgherea,

Have you tried Dorwol's workaround a couple of comments above?

Hello Stefan,
Yes, I've tried Dorwol's workaround and it worked for me.

Now I have another question - is it possible to hide page's border?

Thank you.

Hi, vzgherea

Now I have another question - is it possible to hide page's border?

I'm afraid it is impossible in current version.

Is it possible to make control's background transparent?
In my case control is placed on a page with gradient, what I try to achieve is to have pdf page displayed over page with gradient, without border and background displayed.

Thank you.

Hi,

You may change background color only. Or you may use the textured background.
Currently the "Pages View" control is the normal child window. So we cannot make this window (and some its parent-containers) transparent..
In the new version of SDK you will be able to customize background of "Page Views" directly, set custom gradient for example. Also you will be able to remove border/shadows of pages.
Or you will be able to create special windowless "Pages View" control inside your windowed container.

Best
Regards.

Hello Vasyl,
When do you plan to release new version?
It would be great to have functionality you've described.

Hi vzgherea

the new SDK is still some months away. There is still a great deal of documentation and testing to be done.
