To update an old issue - without any project changes on my end, but with several Xcode upgrades, this stopped happening. I don't know the exact Xcode version when it stopped.

FYI, we just tested beta 5 (25A5327h) and aren't seeing any improvements or changes.

I have also submitted a case regarding the regressions in UI/UX for screensavers: Tahoe has redesigned the UI for System Settings to remove the Screen Saver pane altogether. Instead, you access Screen Savers from within the Wallpaper settings. This has the following issues: Confusion - macOS has emphasized the importance of Screen Saves in recent years, and users expect to have a Screen Saver pane Usability - although you can access the Screen Savers settings, it’s now hidden behind a button within the Wallpaper settings, and the resulting window runs as a very small modal non-resizable dialog. Since macOS ships with dozens of screensavers by default, forcing the user to navigate these in a tiny window is just silly. Backwards compatibility is broken. For example, the command open x-apple.systempreferences:com.apple.ScreenSaver-Settings.extension No longer works in Tahoe. FB18698083

Testing using Beta 3, I've figured out one of the issues: In macOS Tahoe, when you are viewing the Screen Savers dialog (from inside Wallpaper), using legacyScreenSaver, the system is incorrectly launching 2 copies - one at fullscreen on the main screen, and then a second (correct) instance which is in Preview mode. Reported as FB18697726

Another issue: WKWebView-based screensaver doesn't display on 2nd monitor (legacyScreenSaver) in Tahoe Submitted as # FB17938870

Yes, the CSS has :hover classes, for example: .PlayPauseButton:hover { color: #FF0; text-decoration: none; cursor: pointer; } When i run this HTML/CSS in Safari, or in a normal WKWebView in a test app, it all works normally.

It's not related to NSAppleEventsUsageDescription - that's for something else. Specifically, I'm trying to set up a CGEventTap with the defaultTap option: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coregraphics/cgeventtapoptions/defaulttap This triggers the OS dialog that looks like this: My question is: can this dialog be customized in any way?

There are many bugs with third-party screensavers under Sonoma. Here's a long thread that discusses a number of fixes: https://github.com/JohnCoates/Aerial/issues/1305 In particular, if your screensaver detects when it needs to exit, it can call exit(0) which seems to do the trick.

I'm digging into this in more depth, don't have specific answers to all the issue yet, but am discovering some workarounds, and will post back when I have things sorted out. Feel free to contact me directly if you want info sooner - I'm active in a few places, including https://github.com/JohnCoates/Aerial/issues

@eskimo We are also getting reports of failures in first-party Apple screensavers using 13.4 on multi-monitor systems - in particular the Shifting Tiles screensaver has random blank screens when starting on 2 or 3 monitor systems. Shifting Tiles: when using the "Options / Source: Colors" (which doesn't use photos, just blocks of color) it seems to work fine on 2 or 3 monitor systems. However, if I choose "Options / Choose Folder" or "Options / Photos Library" then I can see some sort of malfunction: With 2 monitors: after the screensaver starts, I get 2 blank screens for about 20 seconds. After 20+ seconds, then both screens start working. With 3 monitors: after the screensaver starts, I get 5 seconds of blank screen, then monitor 1 starts, then another 5 seconds, monitor 2 starts, then another 5 seconds and monitor 3 starts. With repeated testing, the pattern is somewhat random: sometimes 1 and 2 start right away, followed by 3 about 5 seconds later.

Unfortunately this bug has been improved, but not fixed. In 13.4 RC, a system with 2 monitors works about 95% of the time. On a system with 3+ screens, the failure rate is 100%. Submitted a new FB case FB12179420 Discussion continues here: https://github.com/JohnCoates/Aerial/issues/1286

Thanks @eskimo the FB cases we know about are FB12023530 and FB12007471 - the thread which has the most technical details is this one: https://github.com/JohnCoates/Aerial/issues/1286 Note that the bug appears to be random and intermittent, so one successful test doesn't mean it's not happening. Test multiple times.

Still happening in Beta 3 - I've narrowed it down a bit, it appears that any use of WkWebView in a x64 Intel app no longer functions on M1 / ARM macs: Instead, the WebKit process crashes. A standalone ARM build, or a Universal Intel/Arm build work fine. Apple: this is a very bad regression, any insight? I have updated FB11786440 with an XCode sample project to illustrate the crash.

I am no longer seeing this issue in the first beta of macOS 13 Ventura (22a5266r)
