Canvas is suddenly blank after selecting other tabs in the browser

[pabulaner]

We encountered an issue with the canvas being rendered.
Because if You render something on the canvas inside JPro and then select some other tabs in the browser and then go back to Your JPro tab, the canvas is blank.

Setup:

• Lenovo ThinkPad P15v Gen 1
• Intel® Core™ i7-10750H CPU @ 2.60GHz × 12
• Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS

To reproduce just run the following code inside JPro and Chromium:

package com.example;

import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.canvas.Canvas;
import javafx.scene.canvas.GraphicsContext;
import javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

public class App extends Application {
    @Override
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
        BorderPane root = new BorderPane();

        Canvas canvas = new Canvas(800, 600);
        root.setCenter(canvas);

        GraphicsContext gc = canvas.getGraphicsContext2D();
        gc.setFill(Color.RED);
        gc.fillRect(50, 50, 100, 100);

        primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(root, 800, 600));
        primaryStage.show();
    }
}

If the tab opens in the browser You should see a red rectangle. If You now have at least four other tabs open and click them one after another and then go back to Your JPro application, the canvas is blank.

Hi @pabulaner

We tried a lot of devices, but we can't reproduce it.

Can you try this version? 2024.2.2-CANVAS_FIX.pom
If it works, I'll add the fix to the next version.
Otherwise, please contact me by email so we can have a quick meeting.
Which should be enough to fix this problem.

Hey,
so I tried it with the jpro-plugin versoin "2024.2.2-CANVAS_FIX" and it still is blank after selecting other tabs.
