I noticed, that when I display an image with WebView, press the right mouse button and I get a popup-menu with several entries - but with no functionality (e.g. save image, copy, copy address link).
Could it be, that there are callbacks, which are not available within VAST ?

Here is an example of the usage of the WebView Control and the pop up for images ...

I know Webview only as a C# MS control to display HTML contents (to integrate browsing web in an application).

The only visible connection to VAST is the blue icon, the shown contents is definitively not Smalltalk (being a typed language), nor a VAST image.

I cannot recognize which application is shown here in the attached picture. 
Can you declare what application you are using?

The absence of VAST specific callbacks seems to be obvious (for me).  
Kind regards

Hello Marcus,

the front view is a WebView Control within my application (which is in the back) and I show a simple resource in the WebView Control - in the example a local file containing a SVG. The WebView control adds some default pop-up menu. If I would show a png file a different pop-up is shown - e.g. Save as, copy graphics, copy link and so on.

But there is no functionality behind these menu entries.
