Summary


Details

Since TcVis 14.1, the Info Browser uses the new Microsoft Edge WebControl2 Engine. But this one doesn't support ActiveX/VBScript. We customized a lot in TcVis with VBScript and now, the Info Browser doesn't support this anymore. This is a big problem for us.Is there a environment variable or something else to use the old Windows WebControl Engine (based on Internet Explorer) in TcVis 14.1, which is used in TcVis 14.0 ?

The WebControl Engine is still supported by Microsoft.

Solution

This statement the customer made is NOT true:

############################################################################################There is no "Microsoft Egde WebControl2 Engine" as far as I know and we have never made such a statement to users. Below is a screenshot of an ActiveX based OLE Automation HTML page running in TcVis 14.1. They run as they always have. Notes
