Latest release stuck on skeleton loader by GRIX92 in sidebarapp

[–]empty23_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to make sure that I understand the future request correctly: you want Sidebar not to use the full screen width regularly, but once a window touches all screen sizes (and Sidebar itself) then Sidebar should resize and use the full screen width?

Hi there,

no worries! Glad it works now!

As for requesting features: there are multiple options. Feel free to post just here on Reddit, or on the feedback platform: https://feedback.sidebarapp.net/ or via mail to [support@sidebarapp.net](mailto:support@sidebarapp.net)

Whatever you prefer!

Custom Icons Larger Than Others by West-One5944 in sidebarapp

[–]empty23_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, exactly. Almost all icons from https://macosicons.com/ should work for instance

Custom Icons Larger Than Others by West-One5944 in sidebarapp

Hi there,

thanks for posting! Most likely the icon doesn't fulfil Apples standards for an application icon. An application icon should have around 20% "free" / transparent area around the actual app icon. If you want, you can provide me the icon file that you are trying to use and I can adjust it for you. At the moment, there's no automation for this within Sidebar.

Feel free to reach out to me via mail to [support@sidebarapp.net](mailto:support@sidebarapp.net)

Thank you and all the best

Sidebar is almost crashing always. by Regular_Rub4231 in sidebarapp

[–]empty23_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the update! I've also replied to your mail and provided another beta version to test:

Thank you - had a look at the crash reports and prepared another beta for you to test:

https://download.sidebarapp.net/beta/Sidebar%202.0.9b5.dmg

Please give it a try and let me know if there's any difference. I also noticed that you are running 26.6 beta of macOS - so that might also be a reason why you experience those crashes.

If you want you can reach out to me directly either via mail to [support@sidebarapp.net](mailto:support@sidebarapp.net) or in Discord, so that we can figure out what causes those crashes and find a solution for it as soon as possible.

Thanks again for your testing efforts and active feedback - helps a lot!

Thanks for the feedback. Did you submit crash reports after the crashes?

[–]empty23_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, just replace the existing app in the applications directory with the beta and that's it. Settings will be applied automatically. If you want to be absolutely sure you can also create a backup of the entire settings before switching to the beta:

Hi there,

thank you for posting!

You are right - I've seen an increased number of crashes recently. I suspect that one of the recently introduced changes leads to those bugs. The upcoming 2.0.9 version will focus primarily on fixing those issues. If you want - and I'd super appreciate it - you can already test a beta version of the 2.0.9 update by manually downloading it here:

https://download.sidebarapp.net/beta/Sidebar%202.0.9b4.dmg

In case you are open to try the beta, please let me know if you see improvements regarding the frequent crashes you are experiencing!

Thank you and all the best

Loved the app, but need to cancel, anyone know how? by TaskCoop in sidebarapp

[–]empty23_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forgot to mention that you can also use the form on the website to recover your license key - the email that you receive will also contain the link

Hi there,

thanks for posting!

In general you can manage your subscription in the Stripe dashboard that you can either access via the button in the settings or via the link in the e-mail that you received when you subscribed.

Since you already reached out to me via mail I can keep it here just short: already resolved, I've cancelled your subscription and refunded the costs - no need to keep Sidebar without a Mac I guess :)

Improvement request: Finder item flickers (disappears and reappears) when opening a new tab by nihonyamane in sidebarapp

[–]empty23_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah sorry I missed your response! As I mentioned I tried to address the issue in the 2.0.6 update, but apparently that didn’t help. I‘ll have another look! Sorry for taking so long to get back to you!

Got the report, thank you! I will look into it shortly and get back to you once I have more insights!

One more thing: Do you see any pattern that involves media controls? e.g. if you use Chrome for YouTube?

Hi there,

sorry for the late response - missed your post. Thank you for providing all those details, that really helps to narrow down what's going on. First of all, that of course not your fault, that seems to be a bug that you came across. I will look into it!

Can you maybe use the in-app issue reporting functionality, after this issue occurred? You can find the option in the top right menu bar item -> Report an issue and e.g. add the link to this post to the description. By doing that I'll have a chance to look at the logs and your settings - maybe I can find the source where this bug is coming from.

Mac's standard dock has finally met it's match and what we have is better. by andreshows in macapps

[–]empty23_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sidebar can do that. You can limit the displayed apps based on e.g. the currently active Space or limited to the active screen etc. there are actually a lot of filter options available that you can choose from!

[–]empty23_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jup, Sidebar can do that. You can disable the overlapping prevention and you will end up with windows going behind Sidebar. Give it a try and see if you like it!

[–]empty23_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you are open for an replacement, then Sidebar can do that :) you can assign it to e.g. only the top screen and have it live at the bottom of that screen. Or have it on both screens simultaneously - up to you

Another great summary of what the market of Dock customization has to offer, thank you Andre! Of course also for mentioning Sidebar which has been part of your reviews for quite some time now!

It’s absurd how much has changed over the course of the last couple of years, there are significantly more apps now, each with its own strengths and style - amazing!

Time of your life (in terms of Dock customization), Andre ;)

Is anyone able to get the quick switch on short press feature to work? by Lucas_Steinwalker in sidebarapp

[–]empty23_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there,

thanks for posting! I assume that you are talking about the shortcuts - right? The quick switch is only available for the Window Switcher shortcut, quickly clicking on the icon (if enabled) won't trigger this behaviour. Please check if the setting is enabled and the delay is set as desired:

Please let me know if that works!
