Switch does not play nicely with teleport #114

Closed numist closed 9 years ago

numist commented 9 years ago

Situation: Two Macs, named A and B. Keyboard and mouse belong to A.

When the user is controlling B using teleport and invokes Switch's hotkey, the interface comes up on A. Things only get worse from there, because Switch is suppressing keystrokes while the interface is up, so no keystrokes will go to B until the interface is dismissed. Very bad experience.

This is probably an event tap ordering problem, but it needs to be resolved while maintaining the ability to override ⌘⇥ away from Dock.

f498125 didn't fix the issue. Going to have to disassemble teleport to see how it's capturing keystrokes.

I think this is a side effect of using event taps instead of higher level keybindings, which makes it a dupe of #31.
