Thanks for the nice app. I hope you find some time to work on Sierra compatibility. |

I intend to upgrade to 10.12 Sierra recently. |
Manage to make it work with Sierra using mySIMBL. https://github.com/w0lfschild/mySIMBL Another useful tidbit - The only browser that seems to work with it is Opera; tested Google Chrome, Safari, and Firefox. |
+1 for not working on 10.12. YewOw, your step didn't work for me either. |
When running SIMBL Agent 0.9.9 I got an abort and error message indicating that garbage collection was no longer available in 10.12. I recompiled SIMBL 0.9.9 and AFloat works again. I've let Mike Solomon know so that maybe he can put a link up to newly compiled SIMBL 0.9.9 to get around this problem. |
Ok, after looking at this again, it does appear to work fine - just not for most windows. The only one I reliably see it affecting is the Terminal. Which is great, but I would like it to work with many others as well. |
Thanks for sharing this application. It works flawless on Sierra (10.12.1) for nearly all windows. However, I just used your afloat bundle, not SIMBL. Instead, the SIMBL application I opted for was mySIMBL at https://github.com/w0lfschild/mySIMBL |
@thiagoveloso I have upgraded to 10.12.1. And mySIMBL and Afloat(2.4) are reinstalled. But it still did NOT work for iTerm2. Do you meet the same situation? |
@liudanking I did not. In order to get it working, I just rebooted in recovery mode and disabled SIP. Then, rebooted to a regular boot and installed mySIMBL and Afloat from within. Last, I rebooted again in recovery mode to re-enable SIP. It has been working fine since then, except for a issue with The Unarchiver. Did you try disabling SIP? That might be a crucial step. |
@thiagoveloso I followed you instruction (But I did not re-enable SIP after re-install mySIMBL and Afloat, because xtrafinder need SIP disabled). The good news is that, iterm2 works with Afloat now. The bad news is, I need to click |
@thiagoveloso After I add SIMBLAgent in login items, all works now. Thanks. |
@liudanking cool, I'm glad it worked. Did you try using The Unarchiver with Afloat enabled? It fails here: instead of unzipping the file, it brings the settings window... |
@thiagoveloso yes, I meet the same problem. Currently, I use |
I pushed the solution for macOS Sierra. It should be worked now. |
I've added mySIMBL to log in items, but I still need to manually press "inject into running applications" every time I turn my mac on otherwise it doesn't work. Is there a fix to this? |
@rwu823 still not working after using macos-sierra-solution |
As of today on Sierra 10.12.3, the Sierra install script only worked for me by manually installing mySIMBL |
While my level of technical skill is low, I have been using Afloat in OSX 10.11 but it appears to have been disabled or deleted since the upgrade to 10.12. I went through the steps outlined and verified the SIP was disabled (it had apparently remained disabled as the status query returned "disabled" on the restart into recovery), but the menu items do not show up in the "Window" menu in a number of third-party apps such as Chrome, Airmail, Snagit, Excel, Word that had previously displayed the items.
Any suggestions or insights are most welcome. I don't use the functionality daily but it is very handed when needed.
Thank you.
