Android WebView

Is there a way to access the native WebView from the AR javascript?

Hi there!

Not sure if I get you right. Your JS code technically runs inside the native WebView but is part of the "ArchitectView", which is a Viewgroup containing also other private views.
* Check out "Native POI detail screen sample", where communication between JS and your native Android code is described.
* Have a look at "Retrieving POI data from application model" to see how to exchange data between your Android code and JS

Hope that helps.

Kind regards,

Andreas

That does help thank you. I was looking for a way to communicate back to the Java layer. Initially I was going to attached my own JavascriptInterface to the WebVeiw, but noticed I could not access the WebView inside the ArchitectView.

The method you linked to helps to solve that problem. Thanks!
