Click on x-ms-webview content closes settings charm. RRS feed

  • Question

  • I have put a x-ms-webview control inside my settings charm in order to show company info which is located in an external website.  the problem is when I click on x-ms-webview content in settings charm it closes the charm as if I click outside the charm panel. could someone tell me why and how to prevent. Also I have tried to put a IFrame inside the charm it simply didnt work. btw I am NOT talking about the airspace issue where webview goes over the charm.

  • It's no actually in the settings charm, it's in a flyout of some sort.  What is the code that displays the webview?

    NOTE: If I ask for code, please provide something that I can drop directly into a project and run (including XAML), or an actual application project. I'm trying to help a lot of people, so I don't have time to figure out weird snippets with undefined objects and unknown namespaces.

    this is my company info page I add a command to open this flyout inside the settings charms. It actually displays the content but when I try to click to scrool down it closes the flyout as if I click outside the flyout.

  • Do you mind posting the actual app somewhere (skydrive perhaps) so I can test it?  You can also send it to me directly:  msmall at microsoft

  • I've run into this same problem with a WinJS Windows 8.1 application.

    Is there a solution?
