[Question] How to access CEF stuff? #1674

Well, I know steamvr uses CEF internally for GUI (Settings, Binding menu.. etc.)

But when I develop overlay, I couldn't use electron because there's so many layers electron lays on.

For modern web development for overlay, I wonder how to access CEF layer that steamvr using.

I don't think SteamVR provides any external access to anything in the GUI system. The only option available seems to be the IVROverlay interface in OpenVR, which requires you to render any graphics to a texture.
