Can not use Escape wile task switching #2

Not everyone knows this, but if you hold after pressing ⌘+Tab, you can go backwards by pressing back-tick, and cancel by pressing Esc. I do this a lot. Unfortunately, this is impossible with GoldenChaos-BTT installed. Even after enabling the Esc key, I have to hold the fn button to actually use Esc.

This should actually be solved in the latest version. Sorry for not responding sooner - I usually keep support to the thread on the BTT forums! Please let me know if the latest version solved your issue 🙂

Hi! I just started using GoldenChaos-BTT and I have this issue. GoldenChaos-BTT 3.176 (Aug 9, 2019)

I was able to reproduce the issue - I'll make sure it's fixed in the next version! Thanks for reporting :)

Update on this: Unfortunately, it seems like macOS disables the Touch Bar app area (including all of BTT) while task switching at a system level. That means there's no way around this particular limitation unfortunately, unless Apple decides to change this behavior :(

Closing this issue since it can't be implemented. If that ever changes, I'll make sure GC supports it.

That's a shame, thanks for looking into this man
