Show CEF window in-game

Development Programming & Scripting

Hi.

I want to integrate CEF ( Bitbucket ) into my game by creating plugin project.

How to show in game window of the CEF? I want to show CEF functional (browser) in stylized window, not in stand-alone CEF window. In something like UE HUD or UE Widget.

How to pass visual output of some program (CEF) to the UE game object?

Thank you.

OK, I just found it ))).

There are some bugs in Web Browser widget…

It shows HTML select incorrectly.

We already have an integration of CEF in the engine, which is used for the web browser module. That displays web pages within slate widgets by setting CEF to render to a texture rather than create stand-alone windows. If you want to use CEF for your own purposes outside of the WebBrowser module you’ll have to be careful that the two systems can work together as I think you can only initialise CEF once within a program.
