The Mac built-in display is unresponsive to closed lid state and causes external display not to respond to resolution adjustment behavior on an unsupported Mac running macOS Mojave.

Easy fix/workaround for this is to download a program that I fianlly found. Super easy. Here it is. https://github.com/Eun/DisableMonitor. Download and run. Click the display icon in menu bar and navigate to appropriate device and select disable. This will cause your external monitor to take true full power of your display environment.

We have a fairly large AIR desktop application (captive AIR, using Runtime version 21).
Recently our QA have confirmed and reproduced an odd report by a Mac user:
When the app is in full screen, running on OS X High Sierra, then some clicks on the main user interface go through to whatever application is running behind the window. Whatever background window has been clicked, it will jump to the front and the click is processed, e.g. if the click was sent to a Finder window and happened to be in the location of a favorites folder, that folder will be opened as if you clicked it when the Finder window was open.
If no window is behind our app at the click location, the desktop will receive focus.
This is not consistent and even clicks in the same spot (as much as one can hit the same pixel twice) sometimes go to the background window and sometimes end up, as expected, in our window.
I know that this sound weird but it's been verified both by our QA and by me and another developer working on different machines.
Ideas would be most welcome.
Answering my own question after some trial and error:
Upgrading to AIR SDK 28 solved the problem.
Bonus tip: Avoid Adobe AIR. Great technology, zero support, dead forums.
I am creating calculator VBO in blueprism object studio.
In application modeller I gave calc.exe path and able to launch calculator, but I am not getting identify option to spy on any element..
In Element, After clicking Launch buttion, identify is appearing for a split of sec and Launch button is coming back instead of Identify
PS- As mentioned in videos and links, I have launched calc via application modeller not directly via windows..
I am using windows 10, BluePrism V.5.0.11.0 versionenter image description here
Windows 10 calculator is complicated case, please consider using different application in your training. For example paint is much simpler to get started.
If you really need to get that going, then you may need to launch application first, using one object, and afterwards use second object to attach and interact with it.
can be two reasons
1. Either your application is not launched properly.
2. Sometimes we face problems with some versions of applications.
The best way to fix your problem is
Edit your settings remove the application path from the navigate stage.
Launch the application separately
Open Navigate stage > Action > Attach
Provide the window title within quotes (example: "Calculator")
Click OK then run the object
Now if you go to application modeller
You will be able to see the identify button under the element.
Hope this will help you.
I resolved this by unchecking "Disable invasive techniques (hooking)".
The Windows 10 calculator runs with process name win32calc which is also located under c:\windows\system32.
So when you launch the application please make you identify the applications process name and its location
I resolved this by circumventing to windows 7 calculator instead of a windows 10 calculator on windows 10.
Link to download win 7 calculator for win 10-
https://winaero.com/download.php?view.1795
This will be installed in the same place as your default calculator.
Inside-
C:\Windows\System32
The name of the app in my case was "calc1.exe" to avoid collisions with the default calculator.
I used this as my base reference app for spying and it worked.
Also note, the hover to highlight button seems to be a bit buggy, try a bit hit and trail to get you required button to be highlighted and mark using "Ctrl+LeftClick"
Has anyone encountered this situation?
When I was trying to run application, which was completed in Xcode6Beta, it kept showing:
2014-07-14 00:28:48.131 WeightLogger2[1866:32214] Can't find keyplane that supports type 8 for keyboard iPhone-Portrait-DecimalPad; using 2617181025_Portrait_iPhone-Simple-Pad_Default
You just need to toggle the software keyboard by selecting:
iOS Simulator -> Hardware -> Keyboard -> Toggle Software Keyboard.
Then, everything works
uncheck this option
iOS Simulator -> Hardware -> Keyboard -> Connect Hardware Keyboard
however if you are using number pad or decimal pad then this log again will be displayed, but in simulator you can use the number pad or decimal pad. may be we need to configure our text field with the new preferred way of using keyboard with ios 8. I could not found it yet. or it may be a bug according to this
Xcode iOS 8 Keyboard types not supported
FYI, apple may rejected your app due to this. They complained that the app did no allow the user to enter input on an iPad. So you can respond that the app works fine on an actual iPad and that on a simulator all one has to due is disable external keyboard or toggle SW keyboard. They will accept this comment and allowed the app to be approved.
I have a chat application written in VB.net which is used to chat between users who are connected in LAN inside a office . The application popups whenever user gets new chat message. It works fine in windows XP. But sometimes in windows 8 the application fails to popup the chat window. So my chat window is not appearing at the top when popup occurs for new messages.
I have tried using setwindowspos, form.Show(), form.BringToFront() which can bring the form to topmost. But sometimes this will not work properly.
So is there any other method other than those three(which i have mentioned above) i have used which can make the form popup and bring it to front.
Your WinForms app is a desktop application, so it's likely that the reason the pop-up is not being displayed in Windows 8 is because the desktop is not visible.
Remember that Windows 8 brings with it a whole new Start Screen interface and relegates the desktop to an alternate mode. All desktop applications still run, but they run in this separate mode and cannot interact with the new Metro applications (or whatever they're calling them nowadays). Yes, it's too bad that the usability folks at Microsoft didn't listen to Larry Tesler and have decided instead to mode us in, but c'est la vie.
So anyway, the pop-up is still being displayed, but it's being displayed on the desktop, which is not visible. Bringing it to the top isn't doing any good because it's already at the top of all the other windows on the desktop. If you click on the "Desktop" tile in the Start Screen, you should see your window.
Fixing this problem is going to take some work. Forcing a focus switch to the desktop mode is a horrible idea from a usability perspective, and I'm not sure it's even possible. A better solution would be to look into using Toast notifications instead, which can be done from a desktop application.
I've downloaded v. 537.6+ of WebKit for Mac OS, and am running it on 10.8. (No programming here, just being a web developer looking for the WebKit web inspector.) Everything's fine, except the "Show page source" option in the Develop menu is grayed out when I'm on even the most, and I can't find any way to enable it. I"m very puzzled -- is there something else I need to do to get it enabled? Is there something else going on? Is this how it's supposed to be?
Developer Menu
The contextual menu:
WebKit is not a full browser - only a rendering engine. Typically things like "view source", the back/forward buttons, address bar, preferences menus etc. are implemented at the browser level, outside of WebKit. However WebKit probably provides a minimum implementation of these for testing purposes, which presumably excludes 'view source' (which I can imagine isn't really essential for testing).
If you want to play with a full browser, you can't compile all of Safari, but you could try compiling Chromium instead which provides all that stuff. Note however Chromium is now using Blink instead of WebKit.
You can enable WebInspector to view the source.
The webkit you have is a very old one. I've tried downloading it to help with your question, but it won't even run on OSX 10.8.3. You can always get the current latest build of WebKit here:http://www.webkit.org [edit: I see this question was asked in 2012, so that would explain why it's an old version.]
However you say you are "a web developer looking for the WebKit web inspector" and you are running OSX 10.8. In that case you can perhaps just use the standard Safari that's already on your Mac. You need to do the following to show the Develop menu. And then you have the "Page Source" item you are expecting.
Launch Safari.
Open Safari’s Preferences by selecting ‘Safari, Preferences’ from the menu.
Click the ‘Advanced’ tab labeled.
Place a check mark next to ‘Show Develop menu in menu bar.’
