Great. Thanks Kevin. When is the next version of WebKit expected to be released? Is there any possibility to include this feature in next release? Gurmit On 12/30/06, Kevin Decker <kdecker@apple.com> wrote:

Hi, We've developed an application using WebKit and Flash. As soon as we're minimizing the main window, flash application was stopping the execution. It was obvious as WebKit was stopping update events upon minimization.
WebDashboardBehaviorAlwaysSendActiveNullEventsToPlugIns is declared but is not used anywhere, looks redundant code. Later I achieved that by removing the "WebNetscapePluginEmbeddedView" instance from default notification center for notifications-NSWindowDidMiniaturizeNotification and NSWindowDidResignKeyNotification. To me it does not matter if flash play at same speed while window does not have focus.
I don't know till when this solution will work so I'd like to suggest that you must give some option in public API so that WebKit does not stop update events upon minimization.
I agree; API to control null event throttling behavior is the most ideal and safe solution. Since I don't think we have a bug to represent the task of bringing this control to API, I filed the bug:
Doh! Sorry about that. The Apple Radar bug number I filed is 4902997.
