WebGLContextEvent

This interface inherits properties from its parent interface, Event.

WebGLContextEvent.statusMessage

A read-only property containing additional information about the event.

This interface doesn't define any own methods, but inherits methods from its parent interface, Event.

With the help of the WEBGL_lose_context extension, you can simulate the webglcontextlost and webglcontextrestored events:

const canvas = document.getElementById("canvas");
const gl = canvas.getContext("webgl");

canvas.addEventListener(
  "webglcontextlost",
  (e) => {
    console.log(e);
  },
  false
);

gl.getExtension("WEBGL_lose_context").loseContext();

// WebGLContextEvent event with type "webglcontextlost" is logged.

• WebGLRenderingContext.isContextLost()
• WEBGL_lose_context, WEBGL_lose_context.loseContext(), WEBGL_lose_context.restoreContext()
• Events: webglcontextlost, webglcontextrestored, webglcontextcreationerror
