cycle 1/2, 2/3, and 1/3 on half actions stopped working #1249

Closed dylanwebster closed 1 year ago

dylanwebster commented 1 year ago

When using keyboard shortcuts for "Left Half" or "Right Half", the "cycle 1/2, 2/3, and 1/3 on half actions" setting used to work to. cycle between 1/2, 2/3, and 1/3 the screen. Now, it cycles to 2/3 for a split second and then snaps back to 1/2. It does not cycle to 1/3 at all. I don't recall when exactly this broke and if it happened after a Rectangle or macOS update.

macOS version: Ventura 13.4 Rectangle version: 0.70 (76)

Thanks for reporting. This sounds like you might have another window manager running at the same time? If that's not the case, would you mind adding logs for when this happens? Hold the option key in the menu bar menu and select View Logging...

Hello,

I also noticed that window snapping stopped working this morning after my MacBook updated to Ventura 13.4. This is the logging I see:

2023-09-01T07:20:46-04:00: Unable to obtain window id
2023-09-01T07:20:48-04:00: Unable to obtain window id
2023-09-01T07:20:50-04:00: Unable to obtain the accessibility element with the specified attribute at mouse location
2023-09-01T07:20:51-04:00: Unable to obtain the accessibility element with the specified attribute at mouse location
2023-09-01T07:20:52-04:00: Unable to obtain the accessibility element with the specified attribute at mouse location

This is the result of me attempting to snap to the right, then the left, then clicking the mouse three times.

Sometimes the accessibility API can be a little flaky immediately after an update, and this is often fixed by rebooting your Mac.

nleroy917 commented 1 year ago

Got it.

AFK now but I'll try that as soon as possible.

nleroy917 commented 1 year ago

Not sure if it solves @dylanwebster 's issue, but the restart did the trick.

Appreciate it!

dylanwebster commented 1 year ago

Thanks. So this appears to be intermittent and I haven't pinpointed it to what else is happening on my system. Randomly started working again yesterday and then stopped. Working again today after a reboot. To my knowledge, I don't have another window manager running. I'll try to grab logs if/when I see this again. Thanks by the way for making and maintaining rectangle. My life would be much worse without it ;)

Hi Ryan, I'm still having issues, but it's more intermittent. Here's the log of moving between third when it works:

I happened to be using two different monitors for this example, but the same behavior is independent of monitor used. What else would be useful information to troubleshoot?

Also I'm now on macOS 13.5.2 and Rectangle 0.71

dylanwebster commented 1 year ago

I'm pretty sure I isolated the issue to DDM (Dell Display Manager) software that was doing something regardless of display. Not sure why it was intermittent, but now Rectangle is working consistently. Closing since I don't think there's an underlying Rectangle issue. Thanks!
