Reply to Missing mouseUp events

In my experience mouse tracking is so broken in macOS 13, and now even more in 14. I would write yet another feedback in the Feedback Assistant app.

Reply to Microsoft Visual Studio Version -vs- XCode Versions Compatibility

"Work together" in which way? Those are two totally unrelated apps with two totally different toolchains and project formats.

Safari stopped supporting NPAPI (and similar types) plugins in version 12. But maybe someone out were wrote a Java Applet to Webassembly conversion tool.

As written at the end of your message, altool is not supported anymore, it has been replaced by notarytool. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/technotes/tn3147-migrating-to-the-latest-notarization-tool?changes=_3_3

Reply to C++ std::stable_sort crashes on iOS 12

Try to switch back to the old linker. Xcode 15 ships with a new linker that might cause issues on older iOS versions (it definitely has issues on older macOS versions).

Reply to Mac App's container changing when the app is signed

Probably you are signing it with different entitlements. It looks like your unsigned app is sandboxed, but when you sign it you use an entitlements file with sandbox disabled (or no entitlements file at all).

Reply to TextKit 1 anti-aliasing on macOS Sonoma

There is a similar (maybe?) issue that is replicable for example by opening Safari info window, and clicking on the Version or on the Copyright textfield. When clicked, the text will become blurry.

Reply to C# Cocoa app, button images stretched

Probably another victim of the clipsToBound change. NSView clipsToBound is set to false when compiling with the macOS 14 SDK. If the code drawing the button uses the dirty rect instead of the bounds, it will draw in weird way. Is that button image drawn by a subclass you wrote?

Reply to Unreal Engine / Path tracer

Metal already have all the required API to implement raytracing. So probably there is nothing preventing Epic or Twinmotion from implementing it in Unreal or Twinmotion. However, to get good performance you will have to wait for an Apple Silicon GPU with raytracing acceleration.

Xcode 14.3 requires Ventura, I guess FileMerge deployment target was set to macOS 13.

Reply to Does macOS support h265 hardware accelerated encoding

Yes, if the hardware supports it. I think 2017 or newer. Apple Silicon supports HEVC 10bit and 4:2:2 too.

Reply to AVAssetWriter error -12743 appending HDR Metadata

Why the propertyListRepresentation? The kCVImageBufferAmbientViewingEnvironmentKey should be in the binary format defined in ITU-T H.274. So you should get the data directly as is and pass it to new buffer, a plist won't work.
