0.3.0 broke something on macOS 10.10

[justvanrossum]

In FontGoggles, clicking on the "Variations" tab makes the whole tab move to the bottom of the parent, rendering it unusable.

0.3.0:

0.2.4:

This does not seem to happen on macOS 10.15.

It may not be worth fixing this, but I thought I could at least document it.

macOS 10.10 is released in 2014....

I guess a more clear statement of vanilla support over different macOS version could help here...

We should consider that we cannot keep up supporting the latest macOS with losing older macOS versions.

[justvanrossum]

What would be the next reasonable lowest version? 10.15? 10.14?

[typemytype]

no idea...

things to consider:

• py3.9 EOL is October 2025
• switch between intel M1
• M1 is only Monterey+

[typemytype]

does it happens for each tab view? or only a tab view inside a splitview?

maybe a small example?

the change in vanilla was a move for the tab view to a NSTabViewController

[justvanrossum]

Hard to say, I but I'll try to make a small reproducer.

I got a report of a similar issue affecting macOS 11.7 https://github.com/Nagwa-Limited-Community/Glyphs-MATH-Plugin/issues/5

Screenshot:

Test case:

import vanilla

def run():
    w = vanilla.Window(
        (400, 400),
    )
    w.btn = vanilla.SegmentedButton(
        (10, 10, -10, 20),
        [
            dict(title="Very Long Title"),
            dict(title="Another Long Title"),
            dict(title="Long Title Indeed"),
        ],
    )

    w.open()
    w.center()

run()

Same code executed with executeVanillaTest works fine:

[typemytype]

could you test with the latest vanilla from the repo? the vanilla version on pypi is behind

[chrisjansky]

@typemytype Not sure I follow, I am using vanilla v0.3.0 which looks like the latest version here on GitHub Releases also

[typemytype]

true, but the latest commit is newer and already fixed this issue, sorry for being lazy on the releases

pip3 install git+https://github.com/robotools/vanilla to install the latest from this repo

[justvanrossum]

This issue still persist, even in the latest version in git.
