Title:
Help window opens outside of the screen area
Status in Hugin:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
tested on OS X 10.11 / Hugin 2018.0.0 rc1
The Help window opens outside of the screen area both when opening the
help window from the menu and also when clicking on the question mark
button inside the enblend options dialog.
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.
