Could you post an example of a script to hide toolbar, and fit in window for the IcePdf viewer module? ---

Right now the module cannot be changed. There will be changes made to it later down the road, possibly in Ignition 7.7. ---

I found ways to use the ActiveX pdf viewer to format how I needed. For those that might need it: [livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat\_sdk/9 … sible=true](http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm?href=IAC_API_OLE_Objects.103.182.html&accessible=true) is a list of methods. Use “invokeFunction” to set values My code is set on a timer every 4 seconds: newbom = system.tag.read("[Client]NewBOM") currentbom = system.tag.read("[Client]CurrentBom") viewer = event.source.parent.getComponent(“PDFViewer”) if event.source.value == 4 and newbom.value != currentbom.value: system.tag.write("[Client]CurrentBom",newbom.value) # set new path for pdf file viewer.invokeFunction(“setLayoutMode”,[“SinglePage”]) # show only one page viewer.invokeFunction(“setPageMode”,[“none”]) # do not show bookmarks viewer.invokeFunction(“setShowToolbar”,[0]) # do not show toolbar viewer.invokeFunction(“setShowScrollbars”,[0]) # do not show scrollbar viewer.invokeFunction(“setView”,[“Fit”]) # fit pdf to viewer size Hope this helps someone. ---

Not that I am aware of. If you are wanting to change the size of the PDF viewer in the runtime, or something like that, you could always stick the PDF comonent in a popup window and then anchor it to the top, bottom, left, and right. This will make a completely re sizable window in the runtime client. ---

I was curious if anyone has tried 3d pdf’s with this viewer? I also do SolidWorks modeling and I can export 3d pdf’s. I may play around with trying some 3d stuff. My gut instinct tells me that it wont work… ---

I bet if you rewrote it Java and attached it to a resume you’d get a job interview if not an offer 😃 ---

We only use Java in our applications. Sorry apple78. Also, by the looks of your website, you appear to be a business and not a student.
