No, this forum, and github issues are the recommended support channels and
your question seem reasonable to me :)
You could also try to discord server.

I myself have very little knowledge of how the offscreen canvas stuff works
so I don't have any easy answers for you I'm afraid.  One thing I would
recommend is looking through `test/test_browser.py` for examples/tests that
use the offscreen canvas setting.  Do they work as expected for you?

cheers,
sam
