Visually highlight WebView2s in apps

Open david-risney opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

A feature to see visually where a WebView2 is located within an application.

A rectangular border or a light semi-transparent overlay on top of the WebView2 so that users can see where the WebView2 is.

I've been trying this out a bunch and it seems like Windows just gives me the wrong coordinates for an HWND initially. Probably put this feature on hold.

Here's a screenshot of how it was working previously:

It had a problem where before moving or resizing the window with the webview2, Windows would give the wrong position for the WebView2 and the overlay is in the wrong place.

The work for this was in the branch webview2-overlay
