Hi,
we are trying to evaluate EO.WebBrowser to see if it will work as the browser engine to display web widgets in WPF application.
When I trying to overlay two widget windows it looks like WebView is always on top. See screenshot below for example

Is there any way to configure web browser engine or WebControl to avoid of control being always on top of any other window?

Hi,

You will not be able to put another WPF control on top of the WebView. This is because WebView uses its own window handle and WPF has a known limitation of not being able to rendering over child windows (since regular WPF control does not have its own window). This limitation applies to any control with its own window handle. You can search for "WPF airspace issue" and you should be able to find plenty of information about this. As far as we know there is no good solution to this issue. So you may want to change your application design to avoid this.

Thanks!
