Mac Development tips

[JamesPat]

Many of you may have apps running on Macs, but I am unsure if many are developing on a Mac. I am developing AND learning on a Mac and it has been an interesting journey. As I find Mac oddities I will try to add them here, please do so also.

First oddity: You can't delete a CommandButton from a Canvas section. I tried everything, right-click, Command-Delete,... I finally gave up and entered a ticket. Yvonne was kind enough to find the answer. On a Mac, use [fn] + Delete (your keyboard may have a Backspace key) and delete works as expected.

In the past, I have had keyboard issues when using Macs to run Windows in a VM, like crtl-alt-del and numlock on an extended keyboard.

Hope this helps someone else in the future.

That’s interesting to note.
Thanks James.
