jweb
Description
The jweb object uses the cross-platform Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF) to view renderable data in a Max box.
Arguments
None.
Attributes
rendermode [int]
Set page rendering style. When set to ‘offscreen’, jweb will first render to an offscreen buffer, then draw to the patcher. This mode is slower, but useful if you need UI elements to appear in front of the jweb object. When set to ‘onscreen’, jweb will render faster, but render directly in the patcher (without using an offscreen buffer) and over any other UI elements. When set to 'onscreen with transparent background', the background of the jweb object will be rendered transparently.
Possible values:
0 = 'Offscreen'
1 = 'Onscreen'
2 = 'Offscreen with Transparent Background'
