I'm not using the latest tip, but i didn't see any related change, so i'm asking.
When you click on a certain audio-clip you can render it with a plugin. The plugin opens in a separate dialog-window and it seems that all mouse-clicks on popup-windows (which use inside the plugin) are simply ignored?
Was this fixed recently?
Don't remember fixing that specific problem, but we have done various fixes for windowing that may have indirectly fixed it. You'd need to give it a try.
Thanks, i just updated to the latest tip. The problem is still there. Its a Mac-only issue.
also confirmed with the juce demo plugin, using cubase 8.0.030, VST2 64bit, OSX Compatibilty Level 10.7, latest SDK
I added a simple ComboBox to the plugin to demonstrate the issue:
Can anybody have a look at this? If Rolis and Steinbergs would work togehter (does latest cubase include a juce based plugin?), i think it could be solved in a few minutes...
Yes, this is on our list, no need to bump it.
Sorry for being so annoying, any news on this topic?
Hi chkn,
I cannot re-produce this bug in Cubase 7.5. Just like you, I've used the JuceDemoPlugin and simply added a ComboBox. I compiled the plug-in for VST2, 64-bit and OS X Compatibility level 10.7. Any other differences I should be aware of? Can anybody else reproduce this bug?

Its defintly here at my side, i just tested again.
Did you use the clip rendering menu? Right Click on an audio Clip --> Plugins --> JuceDemoPlugin
I tested on Cubase 7.07 and 8.0.30 on OSX El Capitan, 64bit, VST
When you click on the Popup, you here the sound "beep" as it would like, when you click outside a modal window
just tested, the problem happens also with VST3 (latest VST3 SDK, latest juce, latest XCode), Deployment Target 10.11, OSX Base SDK (latest)
build an tested on OS X El Capitan (10.11.2) on Cubase 8.0.30 (64bit)
Plugins from other vendors (tried voxengo curve eq), which open also new windows beside the plugin-gui, doesn't seem to be affect by this issue. So this must be a juce specific issue. I tried to debug it, once the popup window was clicked, no move or mousedown/up messages coming through. Any hints? Feeling a little bit alone now. I used the latest tip, 100% unmodified juce.
to continue my monologe:
I tried it the same under a complete fresh new Yosemite installation, and the same problems happens again!
So again, here are the facts
-> right clip rendering
-> VST 64, newest SDK, Compatibilty Release 10.7 & 10.11
-> Host OSX Yosemite (clean install) and OSX El Capitan
-> latest JUCE, latest XCode
-> Cubase 7.0.7 & 8.0.30 - 64 bit
I can't believe i am the only one!
I fixed it, i don't know if i fixed it the right way, but at least it works now!
in juce_mac_NSViewComponentPeer.mm in JuceNSWindowClass
In the Constructor
addMethod (@selector (worksWhenModal), worksWhenModal, "c@:");
//==============================================================================
static BOOL worksWhenModal (id self, SEL)
{
return true;
}
Background:
Cubase uses the runModalForWindow: method from NSApplication for the clip render dialog, the only chance to get auxiliary windows to work is to overwrite worksWhenModal to return true (Maybe this should the default for plugin-in builds, or maybe only for cubase/nuendo hosts)

bump, i insist this is an issue
Yep, saw it, just haven't had chance to investigate yet..
Thanks, btw i use a lot of different kinds of auxiliary windows, not only popups (incl. resizableWindow), so a option to make worksWhenModal return true, should be applied to every window.
