That's a good then! :) I tried Netsurf on Amikit a few weeks ago, which *also* has its own custom, non-Amiga UI rendered inside an Amiga window, and in that case the "rendered content" *didn't* resize when the Amiga window it resided in was resized. It was a horrible user experience...


I'm way late replying to this, but I just want to point out that NetSurf-m68k is not representative of NetSurf as a whole.  It's built around the framebuffer frontend which is intended for devices that don't have their own GUI system.

NetSurf for OS4 of course has a proper GUI with Amiga standard gadgets, and when resized the content reflows as it should.

No kidding, bumping a 3 months old thread... :lol:

(Bored, digging through the archives? ;))


Something like that.  3 months late is quite good for me.

Eh, OK... :)


Some people lump the the NetSurfs in together assuming that the OS4 version is the same as the 68k one.  I've also had comments about the AmiCygnix build (which is way old) from people who have somehow missed the native GUI version.

Henceforth I'm contractually obliged to point out that this is incorrect.  This is an OS4 related thread after all.
