Like it says, I often need to generate web content in Python as part of my workflow, and it would be nice to have it pop-up in a floating panel instead of an external browser. Is there some easy way to embed a Qt WebView in a panel? I was hoping for something simpler than a full blown custom panel.

Thanks in advance,
Tim

Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately I need something cross-platform.

Cheers,

Are you able to use the help browser? It's an embedded Qt WebEngine instance in a panel.
