"NSColorPanel.shared.showsAlpha = false" is causing not satisfiable layout constraints (macOS 26)
When disabling the opacity slider of color panels, my app crashes with unsatisfiable layout constraints. Feel free reproduce with a minimal test project: A macOS app based on the Xcode 26.0 template with only one line added to the ViewController's viewDidLoad() function: NSColorPanel.shared.showsAlpha = false The issue doesn't occur if this property is set to "true" or not set at all. I just filed a corresponding bug report (FB20269686), although I don't expect any feedback from Apple ... as numerous issues I reported were never updated or commented at all (after migrating from RADARs).

[Catalina] Quick Look doesn't extend Sandbox for "related items"
Hi folks,My Quick Look plugin reads a "related item" in addition to the file to be thumbnailed / previewed. Therefore I implement a NSFilePresenter as described in scenario 2 of the link Apple documentations:https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/Security/Conceptual/AppSandboxDesignGuide/AppSandboxInDepth/AppSandboxInDepth.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40011183-CH3-SW22This approach worked well until macOS 10.15 "Catalina" (and even works there for the main app). When previewing a file with Quick Look the related item file is not read. I assume the sandbox of Quick Look is not extended to the related item.Before filing a RADAR, does anyone has a similar QL plugin and observing the same behavior?Greetings, MattesEdit: If I perform the preview using qlmanage the related item is read...

iOS Simulators not listed as Run Destinations (Xcode 14.3)
For all my iOS projects only simulators running iOS 16.4 are listed as Run Destinations ... although I've installed the iOS 13 simulator and corresponding entries are listed under "Devices & Simulators". I've toggled "Show run destination" from "Automatic" to "Always" with no avail. Deployment target is e.g. iOS 13, and I'm running Xcode Version 14.3 (14E222b) on a 14" MBP with Apple Silicon. As a current bypass I'm booting up the simulator manually and install apps by "xcrun simctl install booted APP.app" to allow some basic testing, but that's no sustainable solution. Any help is much appreciated! Mattes

Siri is not speaking shortcut voice responses
Hi folks, Last year I added Siri intents to my iOS app, providing class room information to the user. Worked nicely with iOS < 14: The user could define a shortcut with the corresponding action, e.g. "Next Lesson", and Siri read the result from my intent definition (voice only dialog response). With iOS 14 Siri isn't reading responses anymore, but is only giving the feedback "Okay, viewing with...": So the shortcut is run, displaying the result provided from my app, but not reading it out loud. Unfortunately this was the main purpose of my intents, asking Siri just for some information w/o looking at the phone. Is this a general design decision in iOS 14? What do I need to implement to make Siri (again) reading intent results? Currently I can only think of a bypass, putting the result text into the clipboard and adding a second action reading the clipboard (which is an iOS-provided one). Any thoughts? Mattes

App Store Connect: No "Sales and Trends" with Safari 15
After updating Safari to version 15.0 (16612.1.29.41.4, 16612), App Store Connect refuses to load "Sales & Trends". Other tabs like "My Apps" are loaded properly and Firefox has no issues showing my trends, but Safari is just presenting a blank page (titlebar only, no navigation, no charts). Apple, what a shame that Safari cannot render even your own web sites... Mattes
