Resizing GUI freezes the app

[cbrnr]

Problem

I cannot resize the window. Whenever I try, the program immediately freezes and I have to kill it.

Expected

I would like to resize the window, because the default size is way too small.

Operating System and Version

macOS 11.6.3

GUI Version

v5.0.9

Running standalone app

I'm running the standalone app.

Type of OpenBCI Board

Cyton

Are you using a WiFi Shield?

No

GUI 5.0.9 will likely be the last version to run on Processing 3.

I believe this may be fixed by moving to Processing 4, which is planned for GUI 5.1.0 and already committed to the development branch.

You are welcome to clone this repo, checkout the development branch, launch using Processing 4, and if it works fine use Processing IDE to export the application as a local copy for yourself.

Can you please try this and report back if this resolves your issue on Mac OS 11?

Thanks,
RW

I tried, but I get an error related to libraries not found (the libraries that are normally in the home directory which I reported in #1029):

@cbrnr Can you please share the full console log? Resizing the app should not be related to a BrainFlow dll file. More information is needed to resolve this. Also, there is a known issue supposedly with OpenGL and Apple Silicon. processing/processing4#370
processing/processing4#128

[retiutut]

I would try the latest Processing 4 build, run the GUI from this in the development branch, and share the full console log.

This version was released 4 days ago: https://github.com/processing/processing4/releases/tag/processing-1282-4.0b7

[cbrnr]

I have an Intel Mac, so this is not related to an issue with Apple Silicon. As I've mentioned previously, starting the OpenBCI_GUI from the latest Processing build gives me an error because libBoardController.dylib cannot be found. Where can I get this library (and the other ones that are probably also missing)?

[retiutut]

We will now be using Processing 3. This change applies to the current master branch and the development branch. Apple Silicon should be able to run the app as an Intel app. There were too many serious errors occurring in Processing 4 ahead of finally releasing 5.1.0.

[retiutut]

Please try again using the master branch and Processing 3.5.3. This should resolve your issue. If you still get an error, share the console log here and we can reopen the issue. Thank you for making this issue.
