Description from upstream CEF:

Create the browser using windowless (off-screen) rendering. No window will be created for the browser and all rendering will occur via the CefRenderHandler interface. The |parent| value will be used to identify monitor info and to act as the parent window for dialogs, context menus, etc. If |parent| is not provided then the main screen monitor will be used and some functionality that requires a parent window may not function correctly. In order to create windowless browsers the CefSettings.windowless_rendering_enabled value must be set to true. Transparent painting is enabled by default but can be disabled by setting CefBrowserSettings.background_color to an opaque value.

Call this method to disable windowed rendering and to use RenderHandler. See the pysdl2, screenshot, panda3d and kivy examples.

In order to create windowless browsers the ApplicationSettings.windowless_rendering_enabled value must be set to true.

You can pass 0 as parentWindowHandle, but then some things like context menus and plugins may not display correctly.
