Sidebar menu 1st item menu covered

FabioNucci

Hi,
I'm still testing the app myself.
BUG: When I click on some items in the sidebar menu, the first item [Time tracking] gets covered in black, and I can't click on it anymore.

This issue occurs only on certain clicked menu items, they are:

Time tracking: bug happens
Tasks: no bug
Tags: no bug
Export: bug happens
Analytics: bug happens
Focus Sessions: no bug
When in fullscreen mode the entire Menu jumps down like 30px but the 1st item doesn't get covered in black. If it's not on fullscreen mode, the 1st item gets covered/ unclickable.

See examples below:

WorkingHours version: 2.16.30
OS + version: macOS Tahoe 26.6
Device model: Mac mini

I am currently not able to reproduce this issue. When I am in fullscreen and move the mouse cursor to the upper edge of the display, it looks like in the screenshot below, which is what I think is the expected behavior for macOS apps.

You wrote that you are on macOS Tahoe 26.6 - the currently released public version is 26.5. Was this a typo or are you using an early macOS preview?

In your screenshots you have the filter active. Does the problem only occur when you have the filter active?

I noticed that your screenshot looks differently and it seems like you have the "reduce transparency" option enabled in the macOS settings. After enabling that on my device, I am also seeing this issue. Will check if I can find the underlying cause.

Quick update: I investigated this further and it looks like a macOS/AppKit issue with the titlebar accessory area. I reported it to Apple here:

For now, the only workaround I know is disabling Reduce Transparency in macOS settings. I’ll keep looking for a clean app-side workaround.

sorry It was a typo. It's Tahoe 2.5.
And Yes, I'm using reduce transparency mode.
The funny part is that it only happens on certain menu items.

Thank for your fast followup, btw!

It happens on those screens for which the filter UI is shown - so time tracking, analytics and export
