veranth Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Vectorworks 2020 just requested for authorization to access keystrokes from other applications on my Mac. Why would it do that? Quote Link to comment
zoomer Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Interesting question. I checked my Security Settings > Privacy and I have no VW entry in Input-Monitoring. Can't remember if I was asked too but I think I would have denied that request. Quote Link to comment
veranth Posted September 10, 2020 Author Share Posted September 10, 2020 Thanks, I denied also but it got me wondering whether my copy of VW is infected. Quote Link to comment
rDesign Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 (edited) Are you running MacOS 10.15 Catalina or newer? If so — it may not be anything nefarious according to the following Apple Support thread, but I’d be interested to hear from someone at Vw to confirm if this is the case. Might even make for a helpful VwKB article. Apple Support Community :: Keystroke Receiving - Why Are Apps Asking For This? Edited September 10, 2020 by rDesign Quote Link to comment
