Hi Vincent,

As Frederic said, this is coming in PowerBuilder 2019 R2, but I also want to add a few important details not posted on the product roadmap page:

The new web browser control is using Chromium engine, offering high compatibility for HTML5 and also supporting the new HTTP/2 protocol.

PowerBuilder 2019 R2 is currently in beta, and you can request it by emailing product@appeon.com.  The final release is tentatively scheduled for March 2020.

This feature was demo'ed at Elevate 2019 conference, and the recording is on YouTube.

Regards,
Armeen
