This is not supported on the web and not yet on Wayland.
~~I also had to update `ring` and add an exception for `paste` being
unmaintained.~~ Has since been updated on master.

Tested on
* [x] Chromium
* [x] Firefox
* [x] Safari
On Chromium and Firefox we get one annoying frame with the wrong size,
which can mess up the layout of egui apps, but this PR is still a huge
improvement, and I don't want to spend more time on this right now.
Native is already delayed by a frame because it calls
`handle_viewport_output` -> `egui_winit::process_viewport_commands`
after drawing. On web however, we process input including viewport
commands separately from drawing.
This adds an arbitrary frame delay mechanism for web and then uses this
with 1 frame delay always
This implements web support for taking screenshots in an eframe app (and
adds a nice demo).
It also updates the native screenshot implementation to work with the
wgpu gl backend.
The wgpu implementation is quite different than the native one because
we can't block to wait for the screenshot result, so instead I use a
channel to pass the result to a future frame asynchronously.

* Implements parts of #843
### Background
Some widgets (like `Grid` and `Table`) needs to know the width of future
elements in order to properly size themselves. For instance, the width
of the first column of a grid may not be known until all rows of the
grid has been added, at which point it is too late. Therefore these
widgets store sizes from the previous frame. This leads to "first-frame
jitter", were the content is placed in the wrong place for one frame,
before being accurately laid out in subsequent frames.
### What
This PR adds the function `ctx.request_discard` which discards the
visual output and does another _pass_, i.e. calls the whole app UI code
once again (in eframe this means calling `App::update` again). This will
thus discard the shapes produced by the wrongly placed widgets, and
replace it with new shapes. Note that only the visual output is
discarded - all other output events are accumulated.
Calling `ctx.request_discard` should only be done in very rare
circumstances, e.g. when a `Grid` is first shown. Calling it every frame
will mean the UI code will become unnecessarily slow.
Two safe-guards are in place:
* `Options::max_passes` is by default 2, meaning egui will never do more
than 2 passes even if `request_discard` is called on every pass
* If multiple passes is done for multiple frames in a row, a warning
will be printed on the screen in debug builds:

### Breaking changes
A bunch of things that had "frame" in the name now has "pass" in them
instead:
* Functions called `begin_frame` and `end_frame` are now called
`begin_pass` and `end_pass`
* `FrameState` is now `PassState`
* etc
### TODO
* [x] Figure out good names for everything (`ctx.request_discard`)
* [x] Add API to query if we're gonna repeat this frame (to early-out
from expensive rendering)
* [x] Clear up naming confusion (pass vs frame) e.g. for `FrameState`
* [x] Figure out when to call this
* [x] Show warning on screen when there are several frames in a row with
multiple passes
* [x] Document
* [x] Default on or off?
* [x] Change `Context::frame_nr` name/docs
* [x] Rename `Context::begin_frame/end_frame` and deprecate the old ones
* [x] Test with Rerun
* [x] Document breaking changes
Currently egui will prevent all web events from propagating. This causes
issues in contexts where you are using egui in a larger web context that
wants to receive events that egui does not directly respond to. For
example, currently using egui in a VSCode extension will block all app
hotkeys, such as saving and opening the panel.
This adds a closure to `WebOptions` that takes in a reference to the
egui event that is generated from a web event and returns if the
corresponding web event should be propagated or not. The default for it
is to always return false.
Alternatives I considered were:
1. Having the propagation filter be a property of the focus in memory.
That way it could be configured by the view currently selected. I opted
away from that because I wanted to avoid lowering eframe implementation
specific stuff into egui.
2. Having events contain a `web_propagate` flag that could be set when
handling them. However, that would not be compatible with the current
system of egui events being handled outside of the web event handler.
I just recently started using egui so I am not sure how idiomatic my
approach here is. I would be happy to switch this over to a different
architecture if there are suggestions.

I love egui! Thank you Emil <3
This request specifically enables an `eframe::App` which stores a
lifetime.
In general, I believe this is necessary because `eframe::App` currently
does not seem to provide a good place to allocate and then borrow from
long-lived data between `update()` calls. To attempt to borrow such
long-lived data from a field of the `App` itself would be to create a
self-referential struct. A hacky alternative is to allocate long-lived
data with `Box::leak`, but that's a code smell and would cause problems
if a program ever creates multiple Apps.
As a more specific motivating example, I am developing with the
[inkwell](https://github.com/TheDan64/inkwell/) crate which requires
creating a `inkwell::context::Context` instance which is then borrowed
from by a bazillion things with a dedicated `'ctx` lifetime. I need such
a `inkwell::context::Context` for the duration of my `eframe::App` but I
can't store it as a field of the app. The most natural solution to me is
to simply to lift the inkwell context outside of the App and borrow from
it, but that currently fails because the AppCreator implicitly has a
`'static` lifetime requirement due to the use of `dyn` trait objects.
Here is a simpler, self-contained motivating example adapted from the
current [hello world example](https://docs.rs/eframe/latest/eframe/):
```rust
use eframe::egui;
struct LongLivedThing {
message: String,
}
fn main() {
let long_lived_thing = LongLivedThing {
message: "Hello World!".to_string(),
};
let native_options = eframe::NativeOptions::default();
eframe::run_native(
"My egui App",
native_options,
Box::new(|cc| Ok(Box::new(MyEguiApp::new(cc, &long_lived_thing)))),
// ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
// BORROWING from long_lived_thing in App
);
}
struct MyEguiApp<'a> {
long_lived_thing: &'a LongLivedThing,
}
impl<'a> MyEguiApp<'a> {
fn new(cc: &eframe::CreationContext<'_>, long_lived_thing: &'a LongLivedThing) -> Self {
// Customize egui here with cc.egui_ctx.set_fonts and cc.egui_ctx.set_visuals.
// Restore app state using cc.storage (requires the "persistence" feature).
// Use the cc.gl (a glow::Context) to create graphics shaders and buffers that you can use
// for e.g. egui::PaintCallback.
MyEguiApp { long_lived_thing }
}
}
impl<'a> eframe::App for MyEguiApp<'a> {
fn update(&mut self, ctx: &egui::Context, frame: &mut eframe::Frame) {
egui::CentralPanel::default().show(ctx, |ui| {
ui.heading(&self.long_lived_thing.message);
});
}
}
```
This currently fails to compile with:
```plaintext
error[E0597]: `long_lived_thing` does not live long enough
--> src/main.rs:16:55
|
16 | Box::new(|cc| Ok(Box::new(MyEguiApp::new(cc, &long_lived_thing)))),
| ----------------------------------------------^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^----
| | | |
| | | borrowed value does not live long enough
| | value captured here
| cast requires that `long_lived_thing` is borrowed for `'static`
17 | );
18 | }
| - `long_lived_thing` dropped here while still borrowed
|
= note: due to object lifetime defaults, `Box<dyn for<'a, 'b> FnOnce(&'a CreationContext<'b>) -> Result<Box<dyn App>, Box<dyn std::error::Error + Send + Sync>>>` actually means `Box<(dyn for<'a, 'b> FnOnce(&'a CreationContext<'b>) -> Result<Box<dyn App>, Box<dyn std::error::Error + Send + Sync>> + 'static)>`
```
With the added lifetimes in this request, I'm able to compile and run
this as expected on Ubuntu + Wayland. I see the CI has been emailing me
about some build failures and I'll do what I can to address those.
Currently running the check.sh script as well.
This is intended to resolve https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/2152

Hello,
I have made several corrections to stabilize the virtual keyboard on
Android and IOS (Chrome and Safari).
I don't know if these corrections can have a negative impact in certain
situations, but at the moment they don't cause me any problems.
I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have about these fixes.
These fixes correct several issues with the display of the virtual
keyboard, particularly since update 0.28, which can be reproduced on the
egui demo site.
We hope to be able to help you.
Thanks a lot for your work, I'm having a lot of fun with egui :)
* Some initial progress towards #4490
This PR just moves `Theme` and the "follow system theme" settings to
egui and adds `RawInput.system_theme`.
A follow-up PR can then introduce the two separate `dark_mode_style` and
`light_mode_style` fields on `Options`.

### Breaking changes
The options `follow_system_theme` and `default_theme` has been moved
from `eframe` into `egui::Options`, settable with `ctx.options_mut`
---------

* Fixes https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/issues/6638
* Related? https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/4563
This improves how an eframe canvas works inside of a larger web page,
and how it works when there are multiple eframe apps in the same page.
`eframe` will set `tabindex="0"` on the canvas automatically, making it
focusable.
It will also set `outline: none` on the CSS, so the focused canvas won't
have an ugly outline.
## Breaking changes
You may wanna add this to your `index.html` to give the canvas focus on
startup:
```js
document.getElementById("the_canvas_id").focus();
```
## Test setup
```sh
./scripts/build_demo_web.sh
./scripts/start_server.sh
open http://localhost:8888/multiple_apps.html
```
Then open the "Input Event History" and "Text Edit" windows
## Tested
* Chromium
* [x] drag-and-drop of files
* Test both when a `TextEdit` is focused and when it is not:
* [x] `Event::Key`
* [x] `Event::Text`
* [x] copy-cut-paste
* [x] Wheel scroll
* [x] `Event::PointerGone`
* [x] Mouse drag
* [x] Mouse click
* [x] Mouse right-click
* [x] Defocus all eframe canvas, and then start typing text
* [x] Firefox (all of the above)
* [x] Desktop Safari (all of the above)
* [x] Mobile Safari

- Closes https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/4060 - no longer aligned
to top
- Closes https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/4479 - `canvas.style` is
not set anywhere anymore
- Closes https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/2231 - same as #4060
- Closes https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/3618 - there is now one
`<input>` per `eframe` app, and it's removed transitively by
`WebRunner::destroy -> AppRunner::drop -> TextAgent::drop`
This PR improves the text agent to make fewer assumptions about how
`egui` is embedded into the page:
- Text agent no longer sets the canvas position
- There is now a text agent for each instance of `WebRunner`
- The input element is now moved to the correct position, so the OS can
display the IME window in the correct place. Before it would typically
be outside of the viewport
The best way to test this is to build & server the web demo locally:
```
scripts/build_demo_web.sh && scripts/start_server.sh
```
Then open the EasyMark editor, and try using IME to input some emojis:
http://localhost:8888/#EasyMarkEditor
To open the emoji keyboard use:
- <kbd>win + .</kbd> on Windows
- <kbd>ctrl + cmd + space</kbd> on Mac
Tested on:
- [x] Windows
- [x] Linux
- [x] MacOS
- [x] Android
- [x] iOS
## Migration guide
The canvas no longer controls its own size/position on the page. This
means that those properties can now be controlled entirely via HTML and
CSS, and multiple separate `eframe` apps can coexist better on a single
page.
To match the old behavior, set the `canvas` width and height to 100% of
the `body` element:
```html
<html>
<body>
<canvas></canvas>
</body>
</html>
```
```css
/* remove default margins and use full viewport */
html, body {
margin: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
canvas {
/* match parent element size */
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
```
Note that there is no need to set `position: absolute`/`left: 50%;
transform: translateX(-50%)`/etc., and setting those properties may
poorly affect the sharpness of `egui`-rendered text.
Because `eframe` no longer updates the canvas style in any way, it also
means that on mobile, the canvas no longer collapses upwards to make
space for a mobile keyboard. This should be solved in other ways:
https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/4572
The closure passed to `eframe::run_native` now returns a `Result`,
allowing you to return an error during app creation, which will be
returned to the caller of `run_native`.
This means you need to wrap your `Box::new(MyApp::new(…))` in an
`Ok(…)`.
* Closes https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/4474
Currently, if the size of the canvas element changes independently of
the size of the browser window (e.g. due to its parent element
shrinking), then no repaints are scheduled.
This PR replaces the `resize` event with a `ResizeObserver`, which
ensures that _any_ resize of the canvas element (including those caused
by browser window resizes) trigger a repaint. The repaint is done
synchronously as part of the resize event, to reduce any potential
flickering.
The result seems to pass the rendering tests on most platform+browser
combinations. We tested:
- Chrome, Firefox, Safari on macOS
- Chrome, Firefox on Linux (ubuntu and arch, both running wayland)
- Chrome, Firefox on Windows
Firefox still has some antialiasing issues on Linux platforms, but this
antialiasing also happens on `master`, so this PR is not a regression
there.
The code setting `canvas.style.width` and `canvas.style.height` at the
start of `AppRunner::logic` was also removed - the canvas _display_ size
is now fully controlled by CSS, e.g. by setting `canvas { width: 100%;
height: 100%; }`.
The approach used here is described in
https://webglfundamentals.org/webgl/lessons/webgl-resizing-the-canvas.html
Note: The only remaining place where egui updates the style of the
canvas it is rendering to is some of the IME/mobile input handling code.
Fixing that is out of scope for this PR, and will be done in a followup
PR.
Before, when setting the `zoom_factor`, the website was already
enlarged, but the zoom was ignored when calculating the logical window
size and mouse position, causing an offset between the actual cursor and
selected elements. That is addressed here

Previously, any frames in flight (`requestAnimationFrame`) on web were
not being cancelled (`cancelAnimationFrame`) when `WebRunner::destroy`
was called. If a user called `destroy`, then immediately removed the
canvas from the DOM, eframe could panic with a "failed to find (canvas)
element by id" error message.
This PR changes two things:
- The canvas element is directly referenced everywhere it's needed
instead of being looked up by `canvas_id`[^1]
- The RAF handle is stored in `WebRunner` and `cancelAnimationFrame` is
called on it inside of `WebRunner::destroy`[^2]
[^1]: The WebGL/WGPU backends were already holding onto the canvas (and
associated GPU context), so the change is just converting all the
`get_element_by_id` lookups to retrieve the canvas from the web runner
handle.
[^2]: There is only ever one frame in flight, so we store it directly as
a scalar field.

We were using [`tts`](https://github.com/ndarilek/tts-rs) for the
web-only screen reader. This was overkill, to say the least. It is now

To work around a Safari limitation, we run the app logic in the event
handler of copy, cut, and mouse up and down.
Previously the output of that frame was discarded, but in this PR it is
now saved to be used in the next requestAnimationFrame.
The result is noticeable more distinct clicks on buttons (one more frame
of highlight)
Bonus: also fix auto-save of a sleeping web app

You can now zoom any egui app by pressing Cmd+Plus, Cmd+Minus or Cmd+0,
just like in a browser. This will change the current `zoom_factor`
(default 1.0) which is persisted in the egui memory, and is the same for
all viewports.
You can turn off the keyboard shortcuts with `ctx.options_mut(|o|
o.zoom_with_keyboard = false);`
`zoom_factor` can also be explicitly read/written with
`ctx.zoom_factor()` and `ctx.set_zoom_factor()`.
This redefines `pixels_per_point` as `zoom_factor *
native_pixels_per_point`, where `native_pixels_per_point` is whatever is
the native scale factor for the monitor that the current viewport is in.
This adds some complexity to the interaction with winit, since we need
to know the current `zoom_factor` in a lot of places, because all egui
IO is done in ui points. I'm pretty sure this PR fixes a bunch of subtle
bugs though that used to be in this code.
`egui::gui_zoom::zoom_with_keyboard_shortcuts` is now gone, and is no
longer needed, as this is now the default behavior.
`Context::set_pixels_per_point` is still there, but it is recommended
you use `Context::set_zoom_factor` instead.
* Part of https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/3556
## In short
You now almost never need to use `eframe::Frame` - instead use
`ui.input(|i| i.viewport())` for information about the current viewport
(native window), and use `ctx.send_viewport_cmd` to modify it.
## In detail
This PR removes most commands from `eframe::Frame`, and replaces them
with `ViewportCommand`.
So `frame.close()` becomes
`ctx.send_viewport_cmd(ViewportCommand::Close)`, etc.
`frame.info().window_info` is now also gone, replaced with `ui.input(|i|
i.viewport())`.
`frame.info().native_pixels_per_point` is replaced with `ui.input(|i|
i.raw.native_pixels_per_point)`.
`RawInput` now contains one `ViewportInfo` for each viewport.
Screenshots are taken with
`ctx.send_viewport_cmd(ViewportCommand::Screenshots)` and are returned
in `egui::Event` which you can check with:
``` ust
ui.input(|i| {
for event in &i.raw.events {
if let egui::Event::Screenshot { viewport_id, image } = event {
// handle it here
}
}
});
```
### Motivation
You no longer need to pass around the `&eframe::Frame` everywhere.
This also opens the door for other integrations to use the same API of
`ViewportCommand`s.
* Closes#1044
---
(new PR description written by @emilk)
## Overview
This PR introduces the concept of `Viewports`, which on the native
eframe backend corresponds to native OS windows.
You can spawn a new viewport using `Context::show_viewport` and
`Cotext::show_viewport_immediate`.
These needs to be called every frame the viewport should be visible.
This is implemented by the native `eframe` backend, but not the web one.
## Viewport classes
The viewports form a tree of parent-child relationships.
There are different classes of viewports.
### Root vieport
The root viewport is the original viewport, and cannot be closed without
closing the application.
### Deferred viewports
These are created with `Context::show_viewport`.
Deferred viewports take a closure that is called by the integration at a
later time, perhaps multiple times.
Deferred viewports are repainted independenantly of the parent viewport.
This means communication with them need to done via channels, or
`Arc/Mutex`.
This is the most performant type of child viewport, though a bit more
cumbersome to work with compared to immediate viewports.
### Immediate viewports
These are created with `Context::show_viewport_immediate`.
Immediate viewports take a `FnOnce` closure, similar to other egui
functions, and is called immediately. This makes communication with them
much simpler than with deferred viewports, but this simplicity comes at
a cost: whenever tha parent viewports needs to be repainted, so will the
child viewport, and vice versa. This means that if you have `N`
viewports you are poentially doing `N` times as much CPU work. However,
if all your viewports are showing animations, and thus are repainting
constantly anyway, this doesn't matter.
In short: immediate viewports are simpler to use, but can waste a lot of
CPU time.
### Embedded viewports
These are not real, independenant viewports, but is a fallback mode for
when the integration does not support real viewports. In your callback
is called with `ViewportClass::Embedded` it means you need to create an
`egui::Window` to wrap your ui in, which will then be embedded in the
parent viewport, unable to escape it.
## Using the viewports
Only one viewport is active at any one time, identified wth
`Context::viewport_id`.
You can send commands to other viewports using
`Context::send_viewport_command_to`.
There is an example in
<https://github.com/emilk/egui/tree/master/examples/multiple_viewports/src/main.rs>.
## For integrations
There are several changes relevant to integrations.
* There is a [`crate::RawInput::viewport`] with information about the
current viewport.
* The repaint callback set by `Context::set_request_repaint_callback`
now points to which viewport should be repainted.
* `Context::run` now returns a list of viewports in `FullOutput` which
should result in their own independant windows
* There is a new `Context::set_immediate_viewport_renderer` for setting
up the immediate viewport integration
* If you support viewports, you need to call
`Context::set_embed_viewports(false)`, or all new viewports will be
embedded (the default behavior).
## Future work
* Make it easy to wrap child viewports in the same chrome as
`egui::Window`
* Automatically show embedded viewports using `egui::Window`
* Use the new `ViewportBuilder` in `eframe::NativeOptions`
* Automatically position new viewport windows (they currently cover each
other)
* Add a `Context` method for listing all existing viewports

## What is a Viewport
A Viewport is a egui isolated component!
Can be used by the egui integration to create native windows!
When you create a Viewport is possible that the backend do not supports
that!
So you need to check if the Viewport was created or you are in the
normal egui context!
This is how you can do that:
```rust
if ctx.viewport_id() != ctx.parent_viewport_id() {
// In here you add the code for the viewport context, like
egui::CentralPanel::default().show(ctx, |ui|{
ui.label("This is in a native window!");
});
}else{
// In here you add the code for when viewport cannot be created!
// You cannot use CentralPanel in here because you will override the app CentralPanel
egui::Window::new("Virtual Viewport").show(ctx, |ui|{
ui.label("This is without a native window!\nThis is in a embedded viewport");
});
}
```
This PR do not support for drag and drop between Viewports!
After this PR is accepted i will begin work to intregrate the Viewport
system in `egui::Window`!
The `egui::Window` i want to behave the same on desktop and web
The `egui::Window` will be like Godot Window
## Changes and new
These are only public structs and functions!

<summary>
## New
</summary>
- `egui::ViewportId`
- `egui::ViewportBuilder`
This is like winit WindowBuilder
- `egui::ViewportCommand`
With this you can set any winit property on a viewport, when is a native
window!
- `egui::Context::new`
- `egui::Context::create_viewport`
- `egui::Context::create_viewport_sync`
- `egui::Context::viewport_id`
- `egui::Context::parent_viewport_id`
- `egui::Context::viewport_id_pair`
- `egui::Context::set_render_sync_callback`
- `egui::Context::is_desktop`
- `egui::Context::force_embedding`
- `egui::Context::set_force_embedding`

- `egui::Context::input_mut_for`
- `egui::Context::frame_nr_for`
- `egui::Context::request_repaint_for`
- `egui::Context::request_repaint_after_for`
- `egui::Context::requested_repaint_last_frame`
- `egui::Context::requested_repaint_last_frame_for`
- `egui::Context::requested_repaint`
- `egui::Context::requested_repaint_for`

- `egui::Context::run`
Now needs the viewport that we want to render!
- `egui::Context::begin_frame`
Now needs the viewport that we want to render!
- `egui::Context::tessellate`
Now needs the viewport that we want to render!
- `egui::FullOutput`
```diff
- repaint_after
+ viewports
+ viewport_commands
```
- `egui::RawInput`
```diff
+ inner_rect
+ outer_rect
```
- `egui::Event`
```diff
+ WindowEvent
```

### Async Viewport
Async means that is independent from other viewports!
Is created by `egui::Context::create_viewport`
To be used you will need to wrap your state in `Arc<RwLock<T>>`
Look at viewports example to understand how to use it!
### Sync Viewport
Sync means that is dependent on his parent!
Is created by `egui::Context::create_viewport_sync`
This will pause the parent then render itself the resumes his parent!
#### ⚠️ This currently will make the fps/2 for every sync
viewport
### Common
#### ⚠️ Attention
You will need to do this when you render your content
```rust
ctx.create_viewport(ViewportBuilder::new("Simple Viewport"), | ctx | {
let content = |ui: &mut egui::Ui|{
ui.label("Content");
};
// This will make the content a popup if cannot create a native window
if ctx.viewport_id() != ctx.parent_viewport_id() {
egui::CentralPanel::default().show(ctx, content);
} else {
egui::Area::new("Simple Viewport").show(ctx, |ui| {
egui::Frame::popup(ui.style()).show(ui, content);
});
};
});
````
## What you need to know as egui user
### If you are using eframe
You don't need to change anything!
### If you have a manual implementation
Now `egui::run` or `egui::begin` and `egui::tessellate` will need the
current viewport id!
You cannot create a `ViewportId` only `ViewportId::MAIN`
If you make a single window app you will set the viewport id to be
`egui::ViewportId::MAIN` or see the `examples/pure_glow`
If you want to have multiples window support look at `crates/eframe`
glow or wgpu implementations!
## If you want to try this
- cargo run -p viewports
## This before was wanted to change
This will probably be in feature PR's
### egui::Window
To create a native window when embedded was set to false
You can try that in viewports example before:
[78a0ae8](78a0ae879e)
### egui popups, context_menu, tooltip
To be a native window
