Multiple Instances of PDF-Xchange

Post by ewoelk »

I have an OCX, which hosts PDF-XChange control. This OCX is used in a VB form multiple times i.e. multiple instances (6) of this OCX are used in the form. When I run the application, I can see 6 PDF-XChange instances running in Task Manager, even though there is no PDF to show at that time.

Is there any way, to stop creating instances as soon as something is loaded? It would be make more sense to load the exe while loading the PDF.

Any ides when this problem can be resolved?

This problem can be resolved in the future.
Please wait some (1-2) builds.

This feature is impossible in current realization. It can be realized in the near future.

Can you give me an ETA for this to be realized? I am planning our release and would like to use this functionality. If will be in next release slated for dd\mm\yy or the next etc. then I can plan accordingly.

Thanks!

It is very difficult task...

The Current realisation of our ActiveX is strongly fastened on existing model:

one client component (ActiveX control) - one server's component (process).

To realize this feature we should change/update a big part of viewer.

Sorry, but we cannot realize this feature in the near future, because we have more other tasks with high priority.

Probably, this feature can be realized in the latter half of this year - once the immeadiate priorities are resolved and a reworking of the UI design is completed - which is already in the advanced planning stage.
