I think we've already discussed it. My impression is that at the end it comes to man power. With only few developers it's not possible to do implement something better.

I suggest you discuss the topic on the dev thread. Perhaps we can make a roadmap or something and slowly improve some aspects.

Liddell <ejlddll(a)googlemail.com>om>: Apart from Webkit there is also QtWebEngine used, for instance, by Otter Browser ( http://browsingthenet.blogspot.com/2016/03/k-meleon-vs-qupzilla-vs-otter-br…). This engine might be worth considering as well. An alternative to replacing the rendering engine would be to remove Konqueror's web capabilities altogether (what's the point of have a broken browser?), and adopting another lightweight browser for the TDE (or just removing Konqueror and leaving the matter of installing their favorite browser to the users). For the time being, when launching Konqueror for the first time it could show a message that web rendering is broken for now, and the TDE Team suggest installing another browser. So that the users won't think that the TDE is outdated or something because of this.

Jonesy composed on 2017-04-06 07:03 (UTC-0600): I use konqueror foremost as a file manager _between_ systems (sftp://...) I don't doubt that others do, too. Konq's KHTML is the only remaining web browser engine capable of rendering physical sizes specified by legacy CSS accurately. The physical CSS units cm, mm, in, etc. were changed in the CSS3 specification to be logical sizes. When a display's physical density is matched to logical density by the server, Konq displays physical units accurately at their actual physical sizes. With other web browsers, this is only possible if the physical display density is 96 DPI (uncommon to say the least) and the server's default logical density of 96 DPI is retained. Recent Gecko browsers do have the capability of rendering at accurate physical sizes when physical and logical density match, but only by using proprietary CSS which doesn't exist in legacy CSS. http://fm.no-ip.com/Auth/dpi-screen-window.html is a simple means to confirm the foregoing. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
