You can use a Web view to include changeable content (such as ads) or custom interactivity to an App Studio issue. You can use a Web view to display HTML, PDF, Word, Excel®, PowerPoint®, RTF, and several other types of files. On the output device, the WebKit framework is used to render the content. To add a Web view to an App Studio issue:

# Optionally, enter a name for the Web view in the *Name* field. This name displays in the *Interactive Objects* area in the bottom of the palette.

# If you want the Web view to be initially invisible, check *Initially Hidden* .

# To allow the user to interact with the content, check *Allow User Interaction* .

# To specify the location of the content, click an option in the *Source* area.

* To use a local file, click *File (Embed)* . Put the file and any other files it uses (such as pictures) into a folder by themselves, then click the button and select the file. To ensure that links work, all files in the folder that contains this file will be added to the article.

* To use a URL, click *URL* and enter the URL in the field.

# If the content in the Web view is not embedded, you can specify an image to display when the Internet connection is not available. To do so, click *Select Image* in the *Offline Image* area and choose a picture file. You can use the icons under this button to edit or delete the offline image.
