Closed Reginold-P closed 1 year ago

Reginold-P commented 2 years ago

I installed it using brew and when I started it, it shows the icon on the menu bar. When I click or tab my three fingers, it not working and I'm seeing the icon flickering on the menubar I'm on AppleSilicon and running the v2.5

It's the same for me, running 2.5 on MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2020, Four Thunderbolt 3 ports) Intel-based

Same for me on M1 iMac (v2.5). v2.4.8.1 works properly.

Same for me, went back to the previous non M1 version for now. ☺️

Fixed it on Mac M1 Big Sur 11.6 by:

  1. Remove MiddleClick from Security & Privacy > Privacy > Accessibility
  2. Run 
    killall MiddleClick
brew reinstall --cask --no-quarantine middleclick
  3. And then add it again to Security & Privacy > Privacy > Accessibility

The flickering happens because the app doesn't have Accessibility permission. It's waiting for the user to grant the permission, and restarts every 5 seconds to get to work as soon as the permission is granted.

After next release, the menu bar icon will check for Accessibility permission and appear disabled if it's not granted. The app menu will also have some helpful items related to permission status.

When #46 is fully tested, the menu bar icon will not flicker at all.

Fixed in the new release.
