Android Question how to hide/show the webview?

[Mattiaf]

Hi, I'm trying to make disappear a webview and to make it to show again whenever I want..
to make it disappear I use webview1.removeview but then I'm not able to make it show again.. Is there any reversible method? thanks

Webview1.visible = true/false?

 

[Mattiaf]

Webview1.visible = true/false?

that won't work in case the webview has any sound/streams.. The sound won't stop

yeah i did read but it would make the things way too harder. . In vb.net it is enough to use enabled=false in order to deactivate completely the web browser, sounds included

+1

Or try moving the WebView off-screen ? although that still probably won't help with the sound ?

i Often use

    dim webData as webView
    webData.initialize(Null)
    ...
    webData.LoadUrl("about:blank")

and then you can hide it

ExecuteJavaScript (pauses all of the media in the page)

"document.querySelectorAll('video, audio').forEach(mediaElement => mediaElement.pause())"

Help to find and inject some javascript code to set option to a stream player

Hi, I'm plying a stream through webview which starts muted, not in fullsscreen and not played. I already tried soo many times in other topics too to use different players like octopus, but it doesn't support this kind of format. The full code of the frame is on this pastebin I grabbed the frame...

and to let it come back again?

even if it s a third party player?
btw I think your code in the other question might just bypass this problem.

For hiding or not, property "visible" set to true or false
to return back to the same URL, you can store it into a variable
I don't understand what do you expect to do with the displayed page

I am asking what is the reverse of your code
