The `desktop` command does not work as expected on Mac

Open afugls opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Describe the bug The desktop command does not work, as expected on Mac. It is not an intuitive behavior - at least not for a first time user.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open VC Code and a .m file.
  2. Connect to MATLAB
  3. Type desktop in the MATLAB termnial
  4. MATLAB GUI opens in the "background". That is, I can see the GUI if I show all open windows (ctrl+up arrow on Mac), but I cannot, for example, cmd+tab to the GUI or click on it in the dock.

Expected behavior A MATLAB GUI should appear in the forefront or in the dock.

Useful Information

  • OS Version: mac os Sonoma 14.4.1
  • VS Code Version: 1.87.2
  • MATLAB Version: R2024a

Additional context I assume this behavior is caused because the connected MATLAB instance is hidden on Mac as mentioned in #9 .
