@phoerious we will need to fix this

This also happens with macOS Sequoia when building KeePassXC locally. Not depending on the Xcode.

CGDisplayStreamCreate is deprecated see: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coregraphics/1455170-cgdisplaystreamcreate

[shemeshg]

actually found it is not required to prevent screen capture

Screen capture is managed (as intended) with

m_appkit->setWindowSecurity(this->winId(), true);

it might be that this function can be remarked...

more details

CGDisplayStreamCreate is deprecated see: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coregraphics/1455170-cgdisplaystreamcreate

use ScreenCaptureKit instead

The function that uses this call to CGDisplayStreamRef is actually just triggering the permission request to enable Screen Recording which is required for polling the window titles (if I recall correctly). If we can poll window titles using just the accessibility permission that would be ideal. Any ideas?

I do it in my app without CGDisplayStreamRef and it works fine, since keepassxc is code signed , it should be ok - the authorization is uniquely bound to the executable . if it wasn't, you would have to clear old authorization manually for every upgrade.

Can you provide a code snippet from your app?

[droidmonkey]

BTW, you can continue to build properly if you set the following environment variable before running cmake: MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.14

[shemeshg]

I'm using the keepassXC macos files as is and just

https://github.com/shemeshg/pass-simple-qt/blob/f79873fb0325d67bef849b9b0e3b74202f5f7608/mainwindow.cpp#L427C1-L440C2

(I've credited you at the SBOM)

[droidmonkey]

We are talking about two different things. The linked code hides the window from other processes and remote viewers. I'm referring to harvesting window titles for use by auto-type. This thread doesn't impact hiding the main window.

This won't work for ARM builds. There it has to be at least 11.0.

Idk if this helps.

Hi, is there anything new here? It seems there are also issues related to DisplayLink and KeePassXC, causing windows to sometimes become unmovable.
