Wrong window role

oguzserbetci opened this issue · 4 comments

First of all thanks for this awesome distribution! One of the problems I faced was with the window role being AXTextField. This causes problems with the window tiler I use, as you can see at its issues: (yabai).

I'm not knowledgeable, but it seems like the easiest change would be to change the Emacs window role to AXWindow.

This repo isn’t the official Emacs repository, and AFAIK the change is non-trivial. If you have a patch for that, you can add it to here; else, I think you should mention this in the emacs-dev mailing list.

Thanks yo the @jakejx we now have an option --with-window-role-fix. Please test it. If there are no complaints on this change, I am gonna make it turned on by default in several weeks.

I just tried it and it works with yabai :)

@oguzserbetci cool! I will it give this feature a little bit more time and then will mark it as opt-out 😸
