[Alphacocoa-devel] [alphacocoa:tickets] #187 Click is detected too slowly

[Joachim K. <jk...@us...>]

Hi Bernard, 

sorry for the noise. It turns out to be a OSX bug!
I just saw it also in Thunderbird.

The culprit turns out to be a preference setting (in Accessibility), 'double-tap to drag', that causes the bug, system wide. (This used to be a standard OSX feature (I always used it), but at some point it was relegated to be an exotic Accessibility feature, and I guess the bug was introduced then. Until I got this newish MacBook, I never had problems with it. Now I will try out 'three-finger drag' instead.)

Cheers,
Joachim.

Here is an annoying asynchronicity issue: do the following with 0.2-seconds intervals:
(1) click somewhere
(2) type a letter
(3) type a letter
What happens is that the first letter is inserted before the insertion-point movement
caused by the click :-( The second letter is inserted after the movement.

(I am not sure if 0.2 seconds is a precise indication, but it happens in practice.
The computer is relatively new MacBook Air running 10.13.4.)
