The application works fine if you hold down the Command key when clicking the mouse.

in addition to pressing the command key when clicking the mouse, it helps to shift focus to any open program on macOS before opening the application from taskbar; in this case, Outline works correctly.
In any case, I agree that this is a critical bug for macOS.

...
It turns out that this bug occurs specifically if you hide the application and then immediately reopen it without shifting focus to another application.

It's unusual how the Outline client is still yet to be ported to a Universal MacOS binary. I wonder if the fact that it's running under Rosetta 2 and not natively is the cause of this bug.

Adopting the program to Apple Silicon support, as mentioned before, would be great!
And fixing the bug in Sonoma :)
Thank you!

We've been struggling with macOS because cordova-osx has been deprecated and it has not been updated in a while.

We have a new version or the macOS client based on Mac Catalyst that allows us to use cordova-ios, which is still supported and updated. I'm hopeful that will address those issues. @daniellacosse @sbruens can we release the Mac Catalyst version in the next release?

I'll note that we don't have a Sonoma machine, so I'm not 100% sure if it will actually fix the problem, but the new code seems to work much better on Ventura.

We're planning to release the Catalyst version of the Mac client soon! @sbruens and I are sitting down this week to walk through the final steps.

Do you mean this PR: #1630
Maybe others interested about it can make our contribution.

We desperately need an Apple specialist who can make our Mac Catalyst app build successfully in debug mode. Our old macOS client, based on the deprecated cordova-osx is not working.

The issue we are seeing is conflicts between bundles with common dependencies. @sbruens can add more detail.

It's the archive process that's failing, and we're under the impression that there are alternative ways to release the MacOS app that don't require an Apple-style archival, skipping the duplicate dependency check - if anyone knows what those alternative release methods are, that would be super helpful.

Can you please give me a issue link? I'm not a iOS expert but I will try to see if I can make any contribution.

Thanks.

That's the one. We've been having issues with archiving the Mac Catalyst version and I am pretty new to Apple development so it's been a slow process of trial and error. I just created #1784 to track the particular issue. If anyone has thoughts on how to resolve it that we haven't been thought of yet, we would appreciate the help. I will continue to work on it as well. @wangw469 thank you for offering to take a look as well!

It is still broken on M3 MacBook with Sonoma. The workaround is to hold the Option button while clicking on the app icon

Still broken :( M2 & Sonoma 14.2.1 (worked well with Sonoma 14.1, but after update won't work). Hold cdm key helps.

Same, M2, Sonoma 14.0. As listed before CMD helps sometimes 😓

I encountered the same problem while setting up my new Mac on Sonoma. The workaround of holding down the cmd key and changing the app focus worked, but I'm still waiting for the right solution.

Cmd+Click on UI elements (and sometimes I need to add Shift) works fine, but of course, it's not the best way.

It's not by design - we use cordova-osx to build the mac client, which has long since deprecated. A decision that was inherited. We're trying to move to Mac Catalyst, but lost our apple developer last year, and don't know what we're doing in this regard. ANY help would be greatly appreciated.

Also, just something you might find helpful @wl4g: Hanlon's Razor

Hey @daniellacosse and @sbruens!

Perhaps it's time to lock this issue from new comments to avoid "useless plusones" and pin it in the issues section so that the increasing number of people who update their machines to Sonoma and now find Outline "not usable" can easily find that this is already "known" and also the proposed "solution" here?

As for myself I switched to ShadowsocksX-NG client while waiting the fix here.
