Hello all !!

Has anyone tried to use Google's popup oauth authentication in an application being included in WebViewGadget?
Since it is necessary to create a popup outside the main window, I believe it is not yet possible.
What do you recommend me to do?

I don't know specifically, but maybe this is a situation where you need to use an "app password" with Google, like I have to when sending an email from Gmail with my app.

Hi. Have you seen my post about OAuth2? I believe you don't need the WebViewGadget as long as you can simply open a URL in system default web browser (RunProgram() directly with the URL on Windows. Calling xdg-open on Linux). I believe you can apply the same as I described in my post also for authentication to other services (2FA).

the solution is actually to open an external oauth link in the browser xD
