switch focus spaces doesn't work #2147

Open JocelynFloresz opened 8 months ago

JocelynFloresz commented 8 months ago

get stack when switch focus spces

sometimes yabai -m space --focus ${d} doesn't work with skhd or yabai command, especially after I typed on a space or focus long time on a space. and I get this info: cannot focus space because the display is in the middle of an animation.

I'm so confused, and I veryveryvery need this command. Can somebody help?

Send window to space and focus on that space

cmd + shift - x : yabai -m window --space recent && yabai -m space --focus recent cmd + shift - 1 : yabai -m window --space 1 && yabai -m space --focus 1 cmd + shift - 2 : yabai -m window --space 2 && yabai -m space --focus 2 cmd + shift - 3 : yabai -m window --space 3 && yabai -m space --focus 3 cmd + shift - 4 : yabai -m window --space 4 && yabai -m space --focus 4 cmd + shift - 5 : yabai -m window --space 5 && yabai -m space --focus 5 cmd + shift - 6 : yabai -m window --space 6 && yabai -m space --focus 6 cmd + shift - 7 : yabai -m window --space 7 && yabai -m space --focus 7 cmd + shift - 8 : yabai -m window --space 8 && yabai -m space --focus 8

I have this configuration and when I send a window to other space it works but Focus doesn't happen. Can someone help me ?

I have SIP disabled and I am on yabai version: 6.0.15

aaSchcolnik commented 8 months ago

Edit: running sudo yabai --load-sa fixed this.

I had ran this before and it had not fixed it but i tried it again after a reset and everything started working. Most likely my mistake.

Having the same issue, i had an older version of macOS ventura and just updated to the latest version of Ventura, everything was working fine before so i decided to uninstall and reinstall both yabai and skhd, everything is working including moving the focused container to a new space and setting focus to that space, but changing focus by itself doesnt work.

MacOS version: 13.6.5 (ventura) yabai version: 6.0.15 skhd version: 0.3.9

SIP disabled

This worked for me.

Have tried this, didn't work.

In case my config files are needed. Yabai config file:

It may be that support for older versions of macOS need to be updated in yabai when Apple releases fixes. Ventura 13.6.5 is a new release and it may have changed things. I don't have a Ventura machine so I cannot verify/fix that. If you have a Ventura 13.6.5 machine, upload Dock.app and post a link and I can take a look.

The same applies to macOS Monterey 12.7.4.

All versions of Sonoma should be working fine on master.

JocelynFloresz commented 8 months ago

My macOS Version is Sonoma 14.3.1. yabai version: 6.0.15. when switch space stuck, i get this info from terminal cannot focus space because the display is in the middle of an animation.

Can u help me? What other information can I provide?

koekeishiya commented 8 months ago

Hm that error used to indicate that the display is in the middle of a space transition, but I haven't seen that message in Sonoma.

Hey mate, im going to be real, im not sure if this is the Dock.app file you're asking for but here you go, i found it on /System/Library/CoreServices/. I apologize if this is the wrong one.

Here's a download link for said file (it'll last three days): https://dropover.cloud/68c67ceb908cd96e0092fcf77c0bb155

Anyways, like i said if for some reason the focus space feature stops working i run this: sudo yabai --load-sa and it starts working again. Thanks for your time.

koekeishiya commented 8 months ago

Dock for 13.6.5 should be compatible with yabai already without further changes.

tjex commented 7 months ago

@JocelynFloresz , as a side note, if you could fix the typo in the issue title spces -> spaces, it will help others to find this issue in the future, as there's lots of useful help in here!

mairm1340 commented 7 months ago

I have this one... still does not work for me....

/opt/homebrew/bin/yabai -m signal --add event=dock_did_restart action="sudo /opt/homebrew/bin/yabai --load-sa" sudo /opt/homebrew/bin/yabai --load-sa

mairm1340 commented 7 months ago

I ran on the terminal

❯ sudo /opt/homebrew/bin/yabai --load-sa

it asked for password and it loaded... nothing fancy...

I then ran

❯ sudo yabai --load-sa

there was a notification which I had to select to allow and once I did it started to work.

this is what i experienced. yabai can auto resize window size. but can't switch spaces
