Webbrowser Zooming

Hi folks,

I am using the webbrowser control in my form to preview a website. This works fine but only in 1:1 width and height. Now i want to scale the output of the webbrowser control, so that i can see the whole website in a rect of 100 x 200 pixels for instance.

Could you tell me the right property or method?

First I tried to work with the Scale function but it seems to be deprecated, isn't it?

Thank you and best wishes from Germany!

could you give me a hint how do you implement the scaling of websites in the webbrowser control?

You were never supposed to be using Control.Scale(Single), or Control.Scale(Single, Single) in an application. If you're using .NET 2.0 you can use Control.Scale(SizeF) instead. If you called Control.Scale with a ratio variable named "ratio" like this: myObject.Scale(ratio);, then you can use Control.Scale(SizeF) like this: myObject.Scale(new SizeF(ratio, ratio));

Scale shows fine over here in .NET 2.0! :-) (does not give me any sign of it being depreciated)
