Mac Client freezes when launching new tourney
Env: Mac OS 10.13.3 XMage version 1.4.29 v4
Steps 1 - Launch client & server 2 - choose to launch local server 3 - select new tourney 4 - try to change one of the boosters 5 - note freeze
Can you see "search country window" on connection dialog? If you can see it then check where exactly is that window popup on your mac (behind or in front of connection dialog)?
This is what I see when I tap the magnifying glass. When I drag the list over the dialog, it overlaps in front of the dialog like it does in your screenshot @JayDi85
OK, then try to search client logs and report it here (after your client "freeze" on set selection). It's can contain errors. That's logs can found in black window or in ..\xmage\mage-client\mageclient.log (report last page of logs).
It's old logs (from February 22), maybe you are shown file from wrong folder (check your link/folder to start up launcher/client). Delete mageclient.log file, restart xmage, try to create new match until freeze, close xmage and report logs here.
My bad! Wrong path
I just took a screencast of the error happening in real time. It's strange, it seems nothing relevant is being logged. Screencast below:

Here's the log from that session:
Also, for what it's worth, I'm now running High Sierra 10.13.4, I got around to updating today
I am experiencing this in the current version on Mojave as well. I can start up the server locally and log into it. But as soon as I try to change any drop down item (booster packs in tourney, game types, etc...) the client freezes up and is unresponsive. And the logs have nothing in them that is useful. All that is in it is:

There are possible some text assistance or whatever third party software on MacOs (app freeze on text field enter -- that's third party software try to create quick search buttons or whatever). I still don't know the reason. Someone report in #5130 about Contexts app. You can find that software and disable or add java app to ignore list.
Hmmmm. I definitely don't use Contexts. I killed all my apps and found out which one is creating the issue. It seems to be Magnet which causes issues. So seems to be window managers/organizers that's messing stuff up.
Ah! Good to know. I use magnet as well. I'm assuming that was the root of my issue.
Okay, more findings on this. It's caused by some interaction between window resizing apps (at the very least) and something inside the MageFrame object.
- The "Connect to Server" dialog on it's own will freeze the UI
- The "About" dialog does not freeze the UI
Looking at the "About" dialog, the big difference about it is that has the following line in it's constructor this.modal = false;. If I set the "About" dialog to also be modal, then the "About" dialog suddenly starts freezing the UI when the window is resized.
XMage uses custom code to simulate modal dialogs -- see startModal() for related code.
Also you can run client app with -debug param to enable debug menu and run render and popup test tools:
Updating Java does not solve this issue. I have tried compiling it targeting Java 18 (not 1.8, 18) and running it with Java 18 and the issue is still there.
Strange it is a little better, on 1.8 when it freezes it also stops all haptic feedback on the device. Under Java 18 the feedback still works but the application still freezes.
It gets weirder... If all modal windows are closed, XMage is tiled to take up half the screen, then you can open the connection dialog (or similar) and start re-tiling it as you please without it freezing. But the moment you try to open another window which has been set to modal, the application freezes.
