Megathread for Missing Features

adamjs opened this issue ยท 38 comments

This issue will keep track of various things missing in Ultralight that are present in Chrome/Firefox.

CSS

Native Inputs/Dialogs

Web Features

SVG/Canvas

  • Line Joins / Line Caps in SVG/Canvas. Currently uses defaults (miter line join / butt line cap), need to add support for other options.
  • CanvasRenderingContext2D.filter
  • CanvasRenderingContext2D.imageSmoothingEnabled
  • CanvasRenderingContext2D.imageSmoothingQuality

Platform-Specific

Miscellaneous

You should probably add <video> to that list.

Thanks, added โœ…

With markdown, instead of:

- Item

you should use

- [ ] Item

It gives you a checkbox that you can click to signify what is done, like:

  • Not Done
  • Done

Thanks for the tip! Updated.

It is possible to create a system tray icon for the application? Something like that. It's often useful for the user to close the window but to keep a deamon running in the background.

What about adding dGPU support (NVIDIA for example)?

issue: #220

Is this being kept up to date?

It's a bit out of date since most work the last two months has been in the 1.2 development branch (rebased off latest WebKit, changeset has 1M+ LOC). Going to push to public GitHub soon and update this thread.

Hey , how can i get a text value from a text input element.

Good day.
Is the list of features actual? I'am interested in WebRTC, is it not implemented yet?

@adamjs can you add support for webp images to this list?

@adamjs also if we can add support for icons for the windows

@adamjs any update on v1.2? when can we expect it to be out?

Is supporting mobile devices still in the plans?

window.onKeypress not work in Browser sample
example electron-app
source: #L40

Gamepad API (!!)

looking forward for CSS Filters and HTML5 video and audio support!

Looking forward to supporting media queries for dark mode, so that embedded Ultralight windows can toggle the light/dark mode automatically matching the Desktop OS Light/Dark mode setting.

For example: https://davy.dev/darkmode

This works with Epiphany (webkit) but not yet with Ultralight v1.2.0-beta.2.

UPDATE Nov 30th: Still doesn't appear to be present in the latest version of Ultralight v1.2.0

hello, what about "loading webp image file" i got some errors with them

Chrome/Firefox Chromium

Please add #185 to the list. Chrome/Firefox had subpixel rendering since the beginning.

some css flex properties are not supported like gap, etc...
#368

In latest sdk yes

YouTube says that fullscreen mode isn't supported

Is this project still actively developed / maintained?

Yes. 1.3.0 is currently in beta and adds audio/video support + more other features

dzcpy commented

Is there any estimation about when these features will be implemented? It's been too long.

Any plans to add a way of disabling web security? Some things like vue just don't like file:// and complain about cors

#include <Ultralight/MouseEvent.h>

  ///
  /// The various mouse button types.
  ///
  enum Button {
    kButton_None = 0,
    kButton_Left,
    kButton_Middle,
    kButton_Right,
  };

No support for mouse side buttons (forward/back), and they are supposed to work. See sample here (press forward on the "Result" live sample): https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/MouseEvent/buttons

So I cannot even catch them in WndProc and send to the view... (with WM_XBUTTONDOWN: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/67683479/process-mouse-back-and-forward-buttons-in-winforms-form-when-its-client-area-is)

You might want to add IndexedDB and local storage support to that list (maybe include setting a dedicated storage path).

how is it still 5 years later a problem to set a cursor to none or set it to custom in UL?
