CDFInformation

As of Version 11.3, CDFInformation is no longer supported.

CDFInformation[expr]

gives a list of properties relevant to a CDF deployed with the content expr.

CDFInformation[notebook]

gives usage properties for a CDF to be deployed from the given notebook.

CDFInformation[NotebookSelection[notebook]]

gives CDF usage properties for only the selected cells in the given notebook.

CDFInformation["file"]

gives CDF usage properties for the named notebook or CDF file.

Details and Options

  • CDFInformation is used to determine properties that are useful when deploying embedded content generated by CDFDeploy.
  • CDFInformation can be used after CDFDeploy to determine the HTML fragment used to embed the CDF. It can also be used before CDFDeploy to help determine the value of a WindowSize option you wish to pass to CDFDeploy.
  • CDFInformation gives its results as a list of rules. These rules can include:
  • "EmbeddingScript"an HTML fragment that can be used to embed the CDF in a webpage
    "Size"the size in pixels of the embedded result
  • If no file name is given, then the resulting "EmbeddingScript" rule will contain a placeholder of `1`, which represents the file name and can be replaced using StringReplace or StringForm.
  • notebook may be a NotebookObject or a Notebook expression. Functions that evaluate to Notebook expressions such as DocumentNotebook, PaletteNotebook, and DialogNotebook are also acceptable.
  • CDFInformation[notebook,WindowSize->{width,height}] causes the resulting properties to use the specified window size.
  • CDFInformation[notebook,AlternateImagefilename] specifies an image to use in the "EmbeddingScript" rule.
  • CDFInformation["file"] will use the in-memory version of file if it is presently open in the Wolfram System.
  • CDFInformation[File["file"]] is equivalent to CDFInformation["file"].
  • CDFInformation[URL["url"]] gives information for the Notebook returned by Import["url","Notebook"].
