![]() ![]() Snazzy Labs owner Quinn Nelson has posted two videos on Twitter demonstrating some of the early notch issues. The main video demonstrates what appears to be a bug in macOS. Status bar items like Apple’s battery indicator can get hidden underneath the notch when status bar items are extended. Nelson demonstrates this with iStat Menus, which can be hidden under the notch or can force system items like the battery indicator to be hidden underneath the notch. Note: If you find any running process named with Search Marquis or. While Apple has issued guidance to developers on how to work with the notch, the developer behind iStat Menus says the app is just using standard status items and that Apple’s dev guidance “won’t solve the issue presented in the video.” This doesn’t appear to be intended behavior, as the notch works differently inside certain apps. Choose Force Quit to end the process immediately. You could imagine this notch being a major pain point for developers and users alike, but it’s not. And that’s thanks to the menu bar, a Mac convention since day one that provides the perfect place to hide a display cutout. The menu bar has been given a little extra height to completely encompass the notch, and menu items automatically move to the other side of the chasm if there isn’t room for them to fit. First of all, make sure to log into your Mac with an administrator account, or you. Delete iStat Menus application using the Trash. It takes no time to get used to having a notch at the top of the display. If iStat Menus Family Pack (5 Users) 5.11 cannot be quit normally, you can select the app in Activity Monitor, click the large red Quit Process button in the left corner and click Force Quit button in the pop-up dialog. Select the process (es) associated with iStat Menus in the list, click Quit Process icon in the left corner of the window, and click Quit in the pop-up dialog box (if that doesn’t work, then try Force Quit). And it’s a good use of space since moving the menu bar up into what would otherwise have been unused bezel means that there’s more room downstairs for everything else. ![]() Add in the curved-edge highlights that appear when you click on a menu-bar item and the whole approach really looks great.) (I see now why Apple changed the metrics on the menu bar in macOS Big Sur-it was clearly laying the groundwork for this display. If you obsess about it, I’m sure it could become irksome, but I barely notice it. The notch in the menu bar for the camera is very weird at first. The mouse pointer passes under it, so it justs disappears when in the center of the menu bar. That’s really weird! If I had written this review a week ago, after my first day with the machine, I’d have written a lot more about the notch. ![]()
