This is all there is to my code. I've tried moving the WindowState
assignment to the Form1_Load
procedure, but that doesn't make any difference.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace TestApp1
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized;
}
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
webBrowser1.Url = new Uri("http://empire.goodgamestudios.com");
}
}
}
Okay, figured it out!
The problem is:
Your WebBrowser
Control is using IE 7(by default) to render the pages, the pages you navigate to.
Solution:
You need the WebBrowser
Control to render the pages using the latest version of Internet Explorer (i.e; the latest version installed on your machine..mine one is IE 11) and the problem will be resolved.
As per MSDN, the Value - 11001 (0x2AF9) says:
Internet Explorer 11. Webpages are displayed in IE11 edge mode,
regardless of the declared !DOCTYPE directive. Failing to declare a
!DOCTYPE directive causes the page to load in Quirks.
Steps:
↪ You need to set the (DWORD)
to your application with the value 11001.
For this, navigate to to the registry directory as shown below:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (or HKEY_CURRENT_USER)
SOFTWARE
Microsoft
Internet Explorer
Main
FeatureControl
FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION
WebBrowser_Test.vshost.exe = (DWORD) 11001
↪ Create a new Key and name it as WebBrowser_Test.vshost.exe
as shown in the picture below:
Note: Change the prefix WebBrowser_Test
as per the name of your application.
↪ Now, add the decimal value 11001 to the Key which you created.
The image below will give a clear representation of what has been said above:
↪ Now, run your app and you should be able to see it that the WebBrowser
Control isn't chopped off anymore.
