WebGL support

Is it planned that the web viewer of the ingame-panels and gadgets will support WebGL ?

Surely the simulator would gain in performance!

Most map and layout libraries require WebGL to work and are currently not supported by Flight Simulator.

It would be very important for the panel and gadget rendering engine to support WebGL

Please!

Hello @ErDebugger

This topic was already discussed here: Why is WebGL disabled in Coherent GT 2.0 in MSFS? - MSFS DevSupport (flightsimulator.com)

There is no plan for such a development at the moment.

Regards,
Sylvain

It would be a very coherent evolution. Worth the play on words. Almost all graphical web development libraries are using WebGL and the performance would be improved. Please, write it down in your route book.

In the same direction... The lack of WebGL prevents us from doing a lot of things currently.
