Ubersicht - Interaction Shortcut Does Not Work on macOS Mojave

Open gtrooper opened this issue 6 years ago • 6 comments

Hello All,

Anyone know what is happening with the Interaction Shortcut in macOS Mojave ? It does not work at all.

You can get intermittent functionality while the Ubersicht prefs window is open and you fiddle with the Interaction Shortcut setting. It's probably some app interaction change in Mojave for security reasons, or maybe a simple change in window layering levels since Mojave has Dynamic Desktops. Shouldn't be too hard to correct since it does function in some scenarios.

It's a known issue. Mojave is stricter when it comes to intercepting key strokes. All apps now need assistive rights to be able to listen to keystrokes when not active. You can give Übersicht assistive rights by going to Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> Privacy -> Accessibility

This solved it immediately.. A huge thanks man.

I have given the assistive rights upon the above instruction, however, the interaction still doesn't work. Is there a stronger method to solve the problem?

I have an iead that it can set a global hot-key to start && stop interaction shortcut.
