Struggling to resize windows on macOS Tahoe?

[atax1a@infosec.exchange]

@the_wub @noheger on macos we use BetterTouchTool, which has options for this.

Ah, somewhat weird. Firefox has that thick border, but other apps do not. Maybe something to do with GTK vs QT, not sure.

While the border is pretty much not there, it's still very easy to resize windows.

With the narrow border it's more obvious that indeed dragging area inside the window itself is smaller than outside it. Maybe to avoid overlapping with controls inside those windows?

Otherwise that scrollbar might be weirdly inaccessible.

@noheger You move your cursor pretty fast to show it not working, but you slow down quite a bit to make your point. Maybe slow down in the first place.

@noheger
The whole #LiquidGlass fiasco has made #MacOS noticeably worse. It wastes a LOT of screen space.

@groxx @phl @the_wub @noheger wow I didn't remember Windows 7 looking that good.
Maybe Apple should've tried improving this design instead of whatever they've done instead.

@noheger this is dumb. Good post!

@noheger I've just realised that #Ubuntu does that too. I never noticed because I never use the corner to resize; I do Super + right click.

Clearly the superior UI, infallible in every way...

@noheger Steve Jobs has been rolling in his grave ever faster and faster over the years. These days he must be fast as a drill.

@noheger Well, I'm not going to say Tahoe has no issues, but I can't reproduce the error you're seeing.

In the old days I would say try restarting without extensions to see if the problem persists. These days I think it's create a new user account.

@noheger Please tell me this is configurable and that it's not what they ship as a default setting...

[sarenberg@twit.social]

@noheger Great piece. To the point. Not too technical. (For us common folk.) Useful. Thank you.

[jscari@mastodon.social]

@noheger Holy crap! This kept happening to me and I thought it was my mouse flaking out or something. So they changed the visual corner radius without adjusting the click area to match…great. Really starting to regret updating to Tahoe.

@farshidhakimy @phl @the_wub @noheger 7 was a bit over the top for the time, and it clashed rather awkwardly with old components... but yeah, it worked pretty well. I turned down the in-app transparency because it was sometimes too low contrast (but NOTHING like how bad Tahoe gets) but that's about it, it communicated what it needed to just fine and few minded.

@the_wub
meta+right click on plasma

[wyssdaniel@swiss.social]

@noheger Not in my case. Works on my Mac totally fine.

[glennmagusharvey@sakurajima.moe]

@noheger now that's just silly

[glennseto@mastodon.social]

@noheger The term "frame-perfect trick" really shouldn't come come up for UX design...

[cubeofcheese@mstdn.social]

@noheger oh that's cool. I didn't know about that setting
