## [0.9.2] - 2026-06-16 - **Plotly and Vega-Lite no longer leave a blank panel on QGIS builds without QtWebEngine.** When a QGIS build ships no QtWebEngine, the embedded panel falls back to the legacy QtWebKit viewer — and that old viewer cannot run the modern JavaScript (ES6+) that Plotly.js and Vega-Lite require, so their charts stayed blank in the dock even though they exported and opened correctly in a browser. ECharts and the matplotlib image engine were unaffected (they run on QtWebKit). The dock now detects the QtWebKit viewer and, for Plotly/Vega-Lite, shows a short explainer in the panel instead of a silent blank: your chart is still built — one click on **↗** opens it in your system browser, or use **Export HTML**. For a chart that renders inside the dock, switch to the **ECharts** engine, or install QtWebEngine for QGIS. - Root-caused in real QGIS: under QtWebKit the engines fail with `ReferenceError: Can't find variable: Plotly` / `vega` (the bundles never parse), while ECharts renders normally; under QtWebEngine (QGIS 4 / Qt6) all engines render. Chart output, the engines themselves and exports are unchanged — this only affects what the embedded panel shows on a QtWebKit-only QGIS.
