Cannot switch between fullscreen applications

Open vansantcode opened this issue 11 months ago • 4 comments

When attempting to switch to an application that is open in fullscreen Thor Launcher usually only activates the application on the desktop and does not switch to the fullscreen window that is already open. Sometimes, clicking the application via the dock will temporarily allow for the Thor Shortcut to work after. Even so, eventually switching between two full screen applications returns to the original behavior of activating the applications on the desktop and not the open full screen windows:

@rodnaph Does this issue appear to be the same as #45?

@gbammc Was Thor intended to work with fullscreen applications? I imagine that fullscreen switching was never in the cards based on the way that desktops and spaces and fullscreen natively behave on the operating system.

Has anyone taken a look at this issue? Any agreement on what the expected behavior for switching between fullscreen applications should be?

@vansantcode It seems quite related yes, I wasn't able to ascertain exactly why the intermittent behaviour I was seeing was occurring though I'm afraid.

@rodnaph I am pretty sure the issue lies with the natural design of macOS Spaces.
