Correct the setting of the Maximised window when choosing an item in Help #8907

Open rdstern opened 3 months ago

@Patowhiz I assume this mis a trivial change for you to do, but please allocate - with instruction - if not.

The help on the R packages is now within the Maximised window and works well, with one small problem.

As an example, in the Prepare > Column: Calculator > Wakefield keyboard > Button for the R -Help. Go down and look for the help on (say) Answer.

You always get the entry after the one you click on. So, when the one you are on is Answer, you get the help on Area.

@rdstern does the same happen if you use your default external browser?

@N-thony kindly investigate this issue.

@rdstern @Patowhiz this seems to be a problem when the cefsharp winform browser loads for the first time and also a black screen appears at the same time. I have a tried a couple solutions provided in different forums and it seems to not work yet, I will keep investigating on this.

@N-thony and @Patowhiz that's already a very useful discovery. Instead of keeping trying with the Help I cloesed it and tried again and it is working fine. Happy for you to keep looking, but I am already pretty happy with this "work-around"

This is all useful.

@N-thony, it's interesting that the black screen relates to this bug, considering it's only related to rendering.

The CEF component that I added for HTML outputs has had several updates, and I suspect the black screen bug has been fixed in the latest versions of CEF. Unfortunately, I can't use the updates because they support .NET 8, while we still use .NET 4.6 and can't update yet.
