VLC Macos Window "dragging" is broken

Postby vlc3.0.10isballs » 01 May 2020 12:00

Hey guys,

First off: i like most features of 3.0.10...but removing one of the best features of VLC simply makes it "balls" in my opinion (hence my nickname).
Does anybody know of a solution for this issue? It used to be the way that a VLC window in macos was draggable by simply clicking in the window and drag it; not i have to click the top bar to drag it...I thought VLC hard crashed until i realised that this awesome default feature was simply removed in the new version...WTF?

Can anybody help me out?

This should be fixed in the next update, in the meantime you can try a nightly build https://artifacts.videolan.org/vlc-3.0/nightly-macos/20200512-0628/vlc-3.0.10-f39c6bc4.dmg
