The web browser built into the Nx Desktop client allows users to embedded the WEB interface or WEB client of 3rd party software into the Nx Desktop client. With this added functionality, users do not need to switch between applications and windows.
Nx Witness versions 3.0 and up use Qt WebKit.
We used the same version of Qt for the web browser as we used for other parts of Nx Witness -- Qt 5.6.1. More information of the QT Webkit can be found on the Qt wiki and forums:
http://doc.qt.io/archives/qt-5.5/qtwebkit-index.html
https://wiki.qt.io/Qt_WebKit
Nx Witness versions 4.1 and up use Qt WebEngine.
The built-in web browser is now based on Chromium 77.0.3865.129.
More information about Qt WebEngine can be found below:

Is it possible to adjust zoom level of websites inside NX client now?
Like these controls from Chrome:
I tried with + and - keys on my keyboard, but that don`t seam to work.
My webpage is not performing XHR requests in NX witness (I load data in using xhr from a json file, and populate the webpage).
Works outside of NX.
Hi,
This is a plugin from QT framework.We use Qt WebKit.
Most likely it is of same version as Qt used which is 5.6.1 for the latest Nx Version.
There is no solid specification. Some information can be found at Qt wiki and forums:
http://doc.qt.io/archives/qt-5.5/qtwebkit-index.html
https://wiki.qt.io/Qt_WebKit
FYI, later on we are going to switch to other browser. But we'll do that only after 4.1 release.
There is no solid ETA yet. Thanks for your understanding.
Hi Ichiro,
I really interested in this article.
What is the other browser that you might change?
Is it like internet explorer or google chrome?
Hi Norsahla,
In v4.1 we will add Chromium as the in-client browser.
