FSL, macOS Ventura: Crash when a file selection dialog opens
On macOS Ventura (13), I noticed that FSL crashes when trying to select a file.
The crash happens whenever the user wants to select a file through a file dialog; for instance, a geometry file or a plugin.
Two screen recordings are added:
The problem is not from our code. It comes from Qt but the actual bug is apparently from Apple. I found users complaining about the same thing when moving to Ventura:
- https://forum.qt.io/topic/141868/macos-catransaction-synchronize-called-within-transaction/8
- https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/722889
So, hopefully, Apple will fix it soon...
NOTE: I updated to the latest Ventura update, 13.3.1, and the issue is still there...
UPDATE:
Apparently, GMEX is not affected by this issue:
So, I should check Qt tool GMEX and FSL use to open a file dialog; probably, the one used by GMEX/VP1 is another one and not affected by the Apple issue.
