2.6.12 seems to work OK for me on the just released version of High Sierra. All I really use is a 2D layout with keyboard shortcuts to move up/down/left/right without transitions. For that, at least, this version works great.
Of course, I did have to go through the disable-SIP, install, enable-SIP dance.
Oh weird, it ended up without any access to the plugin?
Exactly, it had no read access for the plugin.
I’ve since updated another Mac and the TotalSpaces2 plugin installation worked fine. That one had a case-insensitive file system before and after the update, so I share your assumption that the case-sensitive file system might have been the cause for the above.
Hi - long time TotalSpaces user here. I hadn’t tried the High Sierra beta, but have installed the release version onto a fresh disk, and so far have failed to disable SIP. When booted in recovery mode “csrutil” is not found…
I’m hoping I’m doing something stupid. Otherwise, it kind of looks like Apple might have removed this option in High Sierra release version…
Interested if others have used csrutil OK on release High Sierra.
Hey all, testing with High Sierra and everything seems to be running smoothly.
(had a small panic attack when I tried to run 2.5.4 after updating to the newest OS this morning).
Thanks for the great work getting everything ready in advance @stephen!
Hi there
Not so good here. What is the right procedure to update?
The very first thing I did (after installing high sierra) was to update from inside the application. So I clicked in ‘Check for updates’, it downloaded whatever update (It said 2.5.4, I think I remember) and complaint about the SIP thing. So, restarted, then I had to go to recovery to do the csrutil disable thing. Back into osx, it seemed to have installed ok.
But it’s not working. Not working means it does not transition to any space but, transitioning with default os x, the menubar icon shows the right number of the space though (I’m working with a 2x2 grid). Then, I’ve donwloaded the 2.6.12 version from the top of this thread and dropped into Applications folder, quit TS2, start again with same result.
Despite downloading the so 2.6.12 version, clicking in ‘About’ keeps saying version is 2.5.4, which I dunno whether or not is right. Also the Registration button keeps enable in About dialog, despite I’m a registered user (telekosmos, FYI ). That is not annoying at all, just, as before, I dunno whether or not is right.
Looking forward to hear you how to go on. Don’t hesitate if you need more info about it.
Hey Stephen, I’m also having trouble with MacOS High Sierra. After installing HS, I uninstalled TS2 ver 2.54, rebooted computer to disable csrutil, and then proceeded to reinstall TS2 ver 2.54. After reinstalling I’m not able to use TS2 to switch between spaces and I can’t see the overview grid. When I do try to switch between spaces the space matrix graphic sometimes appears for a split second but then disappears and the space does not switch. Should we currently be using ver 2.54? Do you have any suggestions?
Hi Stephen, I’ve installed 2.6.13 and generally things appear to be working as intended. However, I have noticed that the transitions/animations are much slower then they used to be. I always set transitions to the fastest speed so that movement between spaces is snappy. However, now the transitions and the animation to see the overview grid is much slower than before. I’m not sure if anyone else is experiencing this same issue. Would it be possible to speed up the max speed of transitions/animations?
Thanks for looking into this Stephen. I’m using a late 2016, 15 inch MacBook Pro with 2.9 Ghz Intel Core i7. I’m currently hooked up to an external monitor (LG 43UD79) but the animations slow if I’m hooked up to the external monitor and also when using the MacBook without the external monitor.
Yeh, I’ve noticed that even with just the 2880x1800 LCD display it struggles with the animations a bit sometimes, it’s pushing a lot of pixels about. But of course modern GPUs should be up to the task.
It might be possible to rewrite those animations using metal, I’ll look into it, but this won’t happen quickly.
I really hope you rewrite the animations in Metal 2. My Mac’s animations became silky smooth after upgrading to High Sierra, but Totalspaces 2 lags behind
Hi Stephen, could you check what’s going on with TS2 not working anymore with macOS 10.13.4 beta 3 (17E160e) ? We have another dedicated thread for this. Thank you in advance.
