"Now playing" widget doesn't react to taps #32

Closed stepazar closed 5 years ago

Thanks for the nice Touch Bar solution!

Everything works except "now playing" widget. It does pause/play, but it doesn't react to taps. Do you know what can be the reason?

billziss-gh commented 5 years ago

The "Now Playing" widget cannot be used to play/pause the music. For this purpose use the control widget:

You can enable taps on the "Now Playing" widget, but all they do is switch the widget to show the "Active App".

Sorry for misunderstanding, but I meant the play/pause button on control panel widget. It doesn’t respond to taps for some reason.

Sometimes macOS appears to get in a condition where the play/pause buttons do not work even when not using EnergyBar. I am wondering if this one of these cases.

Does rebooting the system not fix the problem?

stepazar commented 5 years ago

No, rebooting doesn't help.

Play/pause actually works very well, but the problem I was trying to report is that this function does't work: "Press and hold the play/pause button to skip backward/forward".

billziss-gh commented 5 years ago

Here is how to make this work. Press and hold the play/pause button. Then while holding move your finger to the right of the button to skip forward. Or move your finger to the left of the button to skip backward.

Cool, thanks for the quick response and explanations!

No problem. If your issue is resolved perhaps we can close this?
