32bit Applications no longer supported by MacOS >=10.15

[andyherbert]

I assume that 32 bit support for applications won't be making a return to MacOS.

Thanks for reporting the issue, @andyherbert. I'll work to get it recompiled in 64-bit.

FWIW, I went through the struggle to download 10 GB of Visual Studio and XCode, find the missing packages not shipped/linked with this repo and and managed to compile a 64bit version of the current unreleased v3.3.0, which seems to work fine on macOS Catalina. 🎉

Of course this version is not digitally signed for release, unsupported and comes with no warranty. But maybe it helps while waiting for the official release to come out:

PabloDraw-3.3.0-dev-macOS-64bit.zip

@cwensley It would be awesome if you could compile an official version (even if you tag it as pre-release) and add the binaries to the GitHub release.

Nice work! Very cool of you! Seems to work well on my Macbook Pro in Catalina 10.5. Will let you know if I experience any issues on my end!

@fhemberger thank you so much for this!

@fhemberger After upgrading to Big Sur that no longer works.

[fhemberger]

@teikko This was always just meant as a temporary solution. Please ask @cwensley to release a new version with proper support for Catalina and Big Sur.

Hey guys, I've got new test builds that should fix this issue. Give it a try!

Closing this as fixed. 3.3.0 should be released soon! In the meantime, give the above a go.
