The help system for Mac OS was updated already in 2017.0 (no changes in 2018.0). The help is displayed by wxWidgets (Hugin has currently no access to the internal of this window.) - so it can behave a little bit different for the initial position than other Hugin windows. So can somebody reproduce the issue?

Opening Help from the menu shows the window with the title bar at a position with negative y coordinates, thus the standard close button of OS X can't be reached with the mouse. Mac OS X 10.11 doesn't allow such a window to be dragged to another position other than using the upper title bar of the window. So it should be tested that a new window opens with the upper left corner inside the screens field of view. As a test I have created a shortcut (using a third party macro editor) to manually reposition the front most window's top left corner to x=50 / y = 50. That actually works and now I tested if I had accidentally dragged one such window to this wrong coordinates and that position was later stored by my system prefs. So I closed the correctly repositioned window and tried opening it again: it still opens at a too high position. Also the help window can't be closed using the standard shortcut on Mac OS X: Cmd+W BTW the 'about' window is opened in the center of the screen. Now when the help window is front most and I try to quit Hugin (Cmd+Q) Hugin will crash this way: A dialog opens "atos needs to take control of another process for debugging to continue. Type the name and password of a user in the 'Developer Tools' group to allow this." username: password: [Cancel] [Continue] There is no such group defined on my system and no matter what user/pw I try or click 'Cancel' the program will crash.
