Pro Tools + Spaces (macOS Mission Control)
When using the Spaces feature in macOS (swiping between multiple desktops on a single monitor), Pro Tools intrusively adds its windows to any space I swipe to.
Does anyone else notice this behavior, and does anyone know a way to stop this from happening? |

Re: Pro Tools + Spaces (macOS Mission Control)
I've been using PT with mac spaces for years, and first thing we can agree on is, PT has not a very good integration with spaces. First most obvious thing; PT never remembers windows/spaces. At least with more than one monitor and 'displays have their own spaces' enabled.
First thing to try is right-click on PT icon in Dock and choose options, assign to. If you don't get all the options, create a new space on that monitor, and all options should show up. Bit of a macos bug there… I find I get best results with 'None'. Keeps plugin windows from popping up on desktop and such. I've learned to live with it, I use different display configurations for different PT sessions anyway, so I'm used to hitting F3 (Mission control) and dragging edit and mix windows to where I need them at any time. Modern macOS displays handling is pretty good in itself, so dragging a whole-screen space from one resolution to another is quite seamless for example. Try: Dock: Options: Assign to: None.

Re: Pro Tools + Spaces (macOS Mission Control)
Thank you so much, that worked perfectly. I had no idea there was a context menu for that, and sure enough, Pro Tools had been set to "All Desktops".
Thanks! |

Shure. No problem.
Thanks for reporting back.
