when using a hotkey window, opening apps from iTerm messes up with which app/window gets focused
Thanks for filing an issue! Please answer the questions below so I can help you.
- iTerm2 version: 3.4.20 (tried 3.5.0beta13 too)
- OS version: macOS 14.0 (23A344) (didn't have the issue with the latest macOS 13.6)
- Attach ~/Library/Preferences/com.googlecode.iterm2.plist here (drag-drop from finder into this window: com.googlecode.iterm2.plist
- Attach a debug log, if possible. Instructions at https://iterm2.com/debuglog: huh. i don't have that big menubar menu lol
- Attach a screen capture video if it would make the reproduction steps clearer.: Screen_Recording_2023-09-28_at_23.32.57
Detailed steps to reproduce the problem:
- get a few apps/windows showing
- get a hotkey window. it seems to only be happening with hotkey windows
- call any external app in anyway (
open -a
, binary etc.)
What happened:
the app that was called/opened in iTerm should be the one focused.
What should have happened:
the app that was called/opened in iTerm shows up very briefly then the app/window below in the stack of apps/windows get the focus instead.
