Can't make Minecraft in borderless mode behind other windows (Mac) #23

Hi, I'm on Mac using this mod, but in the borderless mode Minecraft is always the only thing visible, even if I tab to other applications:

Even though I'm on the Chrome window, it's still behind Minecraft. Is there any way I can fix this?

Thank you!

Hi! I'll look into it. No ETAs, though, as my only MacBook no longer has macOS installed, and my only friend who daily drives this OS has a pretty tight schedule right now, as they don't have electricity for like 12 hours a day, so I have no good means of physically testing macOS-related stuff at the moment.

Hi, please take your time, I'm in no rush at all. And I hope your friend gets electricity back! 😁

Thanks! I sure hope that they do too! :)

Hello there again! Sorry it took me a while, but I finally managed to thoroughly test the mod on macOS. Indeed, it didn't behave quite as I'd hoped. It turns out that Apple has a pretty funny approach to fullscreen windows - they take up an entire so-called "space" and don't allow other windows to share it (unless they have a special flag). To address this, I modified the fullscreen mode used by CWB on macOS to a sort of "windowed fullscreen" to bypass the issue. Seems to work pretty well. Anyways, let me know if you encounter any other problems!
