@Waxolunist do you have a test case for this?

[LeeLenaleee]

This is the correct behaviour, the annimations on the offscreen canvas are disabled by default with this pr: #9751.

Reason for it is that animations break chart.js in web workers because web workers dont have acess to the window object, replacing this in the code with self made other things break so thats why animations are disabled

Closing as this is working as-designed

You could have had updated the documentation at least. I wasted my time to get ChartJS to work inside a web worker only to find out that animations won't work.
