Output of the WebFrame-widget

Hi,

I am developing a Scanner Widget for ThingWorx using HTML5QRScanner. For some reason it can´t start automatically with the built in api when using the scanner within thingworx.

What does work on the other hand is when using plain html/javascript outside of thingworx. So I thougth that this problem would be possible to circumvent with a webframe-widget, but then I would need a way to extract information from the page in the webframe.

 

My question: is it possible to get some kind of output out of the webframe-widget, or to access the page in the webframe from thingworx?

Regards

Oskar Berntorp

I would say probably not, because the content is not coming via the Thingworx server, it's only coming together in your browser.

Maybe you can use this component, or just look into it to see how they did it: https://github.com/ptc-iot-sharing/ThingworxBarcodeScannerWidget
