Hello,
It seems the GUI has some issues in offscreen canvas worker.
Here is a PG:
You can just comment out GUI section to check if the pg is working otherwise. The gui section seems to be the problem.
I suppose its because offscreencanvas has no inputs. Is there any way to get GUI working even without inputs? Gui I want to use id an indicator without a need for an interaction.
I assume the solution is here - Support for offscreen canvas - #6 by kyptov
The GUI libs right now throw an error in canvas. That is what I was primarily concerned about. Is this what you are saying that implementing these changes from the post would prevent gui errors? Or its just enabling events in worker.
Just 
But I believe you may use HTML elements, which should be much easier.
Thanks. It seems there is couple things in BJS that wont work in in offscreencanvas. I managed to find a way around for follow camera. Now it seems its similar story for gui. I wonder what else will be problematic.

If you have a list of what’s missing I can try to add them/fix them
GUI is a second thing after cameras I came across. I was hoping to transfer my project I did while ago so I imagine there could be other stuff by the time I finish. Maybe I stop posting about offscreencanvas issues and just post a summary when I finish.
BTW I am using comlink lib for workers which allows for transferring events among some other cool features. We can close this thread for now. Thanks for your help!
