In the future, maybe. For now, we're far from the X11 based OCC renderer. Edges/vertices display has still to be implemented, as well as entity selection. > This runs very nice on my linux box with Chrome 9. > On my MacOSX machine, I noticed that Firefox 4 Beta 10 webgl renderer is much better than Chrome9. Smoother animation (the fps rate is almost the double for certain demos), the rendered geometry seems to be 'blured' in Chr9.
