Since this morning I am not able to generate 3D charts with plotly package. On the Viewer window I get the message: WebGL is not supported by your browser - visit https://get.webgl.org for more info
Clicking on the link, it opens a page in my browser (Safari) where it shows that webgl is working properly. If I run the script directly in R, the chart is shown in Safari.
I am working in a macOS Sierra, R 3.5.1, RStudio 1.2.964.
One of the staff might be able to chime in here, but I suspect this is a case of the internal RStudio viewer actually not supporting WebGL. It may not be using Safari, so I'm not surprised that there's a difference there. Hopefully we can confirm that for you, though, @RgrNormand

Which version do you mean by 'last stable version'? Do you mean the previous preview release? Can you confirm which version of RStudio that was just so we're on the same page?
(My confusion here is just because the stable release of RStudio, v1.1.456, does not have an option for changing the rendering engine)
