This feature consists in the ability to navigate between focusable elements in a Web page, such as hyperlinks and form controls, by using Left, Right, Up and Down arrow keys. For example, if an user presses the Right key, heuristics determine whether there is an element they might be trying to reach towards the right, and if there are multiple elements, which element they probably wants.

The “hardware-acceleration-policy” property

  “hardware-acceleration-policy” WebKitHardwareAccelerationPolicy

The WebKitHardwareAccelerationPolicy to decide how to enable and disable hardware acceleration. The default value WEBKIT_HARDWARE_ACCELERATION_POLICY_ON_DEMAND enables the hardware acceleration when the web contents request it. It's possible to enforce hardware acceleration to be always enabled by using WEBKIT_HARDWARE_ACCELERATION_POLICY_ALWAYS. And it's also possible to disable it completely using WEBKIT_HARDWARE_ACCELERATION_POLICY_NEVER. Note that disabling hardware acceleration might cause some websites to not render correctly or consume more CPU.

Note that changing this setting might not be possible if hardware acceleration is not supported by the hardware or the system. In that case you can get the value to know the actual policy being used, but changing the setting will not have any effect.

The “user-agent” property

  “user-agent”               char *

The user-agent string used by WebKit. Unusual user-agent strings may cause web content to render incorrectly or fail to run, as many web pages are written to parse the user-agent strings of only the most popular browsers. Therefore, it's typically better to not completely override the standard user-agent, but to use webkit_settings_set_user_agent_with_application_details() instead.

If this property is set to the empty string or NULL, it will revert to the standard user-agent.
