Scriptation doesn’t work after updating to MacOS 26 (Tahoe)!
macOS 26 - Tahoe - Update Required
Much of Scriptation’s interface and features prior to version 5.1.2 aren’t compatible with macOS 26 (Tahoe). If you have updated your Mac’s operating system to OS 26, you will need to update to the latest version of Scriptation (starting with 5.1.2).
Additionally, there are several known issues in versions 5.1.2 & 5.1.3 that we are actively working on fixing as quickly as possible. If you discover a bug that isn't listed below or need assistance after upgrading to macOS Tahoe 26, feel free to let us know by submitting a bug report to our development roadmap or by emailing support@scriptation.com!
Known Issues specific to Mac OS Tahoe 26 users
- Annotations: The options within style palettes and inspector popovers for annotations in the Annotation Toolbar— which allow you to set colors and color presets, fonts, line styles, thickness and opacity, and arrange annotations— don’t fit inside their windows. This issue has been fixed as of version 5.1.4! ✅
- Auto Highlight: When saving your character color presets in Auto Highlight, checkmarks won’t visually update until they are reloaded by scrolling them out of view first. Even if you don’t see the immediate change, the selection (or deselection) will still save. This issue has been fixed as of version 5.1.4! ✅
- Top Toolbar: When customizing the Top Toolbar, if a tool that was previously shown is now hidden from the top toolbar, it loses its label in the more (+) popover. However, the tool’s icon will still be visible and can be selected, and relaunching Scriptation will also restore the labels in the more (+) popover. This has been fixed as of version 5.1.3! ✅
- Top Toolbar: When closing a menu because of an action (for example, when changing layers or documents), the toolbar will briefly “jump” and the icons will quickly disappear and reappear. This doesn’t affect any ability to use the app and has been fixed as of version 5.1.3! ✅
- Read, Rehearse, or Record: Starting a tour when opening either Read, Rehearse, or Record modes for the first time will cause the app to get stuck without any options to exit the tour. Relaunching Scriptation will resolve this issue, and this has been fixed as of version 5.1.3! ✅
- Bookmark and Annotation Outlines: The bookmark and annotation outlines popover extends from the left side of the window instead of its icon. This doesn’t affect any ability to use the app and has been fixed as of version 5.1.3! ✅
- Lining: In dark mode, each scene and character selection item within the Lining sidebar has a grey stripe running through it. This issue has been fixed as of version 5.1.4! ✅
