1143263 - WebApp Runtime makes Mac always use discrete graphics card

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox Graveyard :: Webapp Runtime, defect, P3)

Description

[:Felipe Gomes (needinfo for replies!)]

On Macs with dual graphics chip, launching the WebApp Runtime immediately forces the system to use the discrete graphics card, and it remains like that during the entire app execution.

Could this be a problem with using a clean / new profile for each app?

No, I found out what it was. The installer needed to declare something in the Info.plist file for the generated app. Posting patch

Mstange, could you double check that this is fine? This is the Info.plist we create for the app packages that we generate (to install native apps that uses the webapp runtime)
