Hi Benjamin,

Same option was available in old Version, We are using this option to Enable OpenGL Mode in WebGL Test by default its running in DirectX,

is there any other option to enable OpenGL mode for WebGL test OR any workaround

Please let us know .

Thanks,
Pandurang

webgl.disable-angle . This changed in bug 996266. Please don't reopen bugs with questions, especially not to people like me who have nothing to do with the actual topic of the bug - I just removed the security flag. Use the relevant newsgroup / mailing list instead.
