Ah, it doesn't work on my Firefox :(

> WebGL warning: <Create>: AllowWebgl2:false restricts context creation on this system

Works fine on Chrome though, looks cool - couple of things;

- I found the the scroll to move very strange to use, click and drag would be nicer

- When I changed the blur intensity, it took over the mouse movements and used that to move the image rather than scroll - until I clicked on the image again



I am guessing this has something to do with your OS or gfx card more then your Firefox. It seems the error is most likely due to something stopping WebGL initialization on your Firefox.

On a brand new installation of FF dev on Windows it works.


Yea, pretty sure theres some webgl config settings that I need to tweak - works fine in Chrome, I just use that as fallback in case something doesn't work in FF.


OP here! Dang it! What OS and version of Firefox are you on, if you don't mind my asking? I hear ya about the scroll, and that's valuable feedback. Are you using an actual mouse or a trackpad?


Latest Firefox on Manjaro - pretty sure it's to do with with the graphics driver and Firefox not playing nicely (fine on Chrome) - so I wouldn't worry too much! (There's some webgl config settings I think...)

Using a mouse, so the scrollwheel to move it seemed ... off ... but then changing the blur intensity made it do what I would expect (letting the mouse move the image) so that's all good! :D


I'm using the same setup and no problems here! Maybe a problem with open-source graphics drivers? I'm using proprietary.


OP: Invaluable feedback. Thank you :)
