Mac: >accidentally click a window other than the current active

Maybe i dont wanna accidentally click sometging i dont want to. I first want to see the entire screen of a program

we don't make mistakes

Pretty sure it depends on the program. For example, in Office it will only change focus and not register the click.

Office on a Mac? Or is Microsoft copying Apples bugs now?

Depends on the application. There are several on OS X where clickthrough works. OS X can be an inconsistent mess like that. Often depends on what you click on within that application too.

Safari will switch tabs when you click on the tab bar, Vox will toggle play/pause when you click on the pause button, even when their respective windows are not in focus. Neither platform is perfect.

>want to click on something on another monitor or side by side program
>Le click
>*nothing*
>considerable worry that it clicked and is taking its time
>not sure if want to click again
>wait 15 seconds and then click again
>works immediately
This is you. This is what you're asking for.

one OS is made for toddlers that drink starbucks the other is for grown ups who know how to take responsibility for their mistakes.

No, office on windows.

Control schemes should follow correct usage not accidental usage patterns

Weird. The two things that Windows usually gets tested for are Office and Games. That means that now both macOS (where clicks not registering is the default, but there are exceptions) and Windows (other way around) are inconsistent in this regard.

Clickthrough and no clickthrough have nothing to do with accident prevention. It is to allow users to switch to a different window without activating an element within that window. Instead of finding an exposed safe spot to click when you want to switch focus, you can click on any part of the window to bring it to the front. Either way have their merits.

I just alt tab

True but I rarely as in almost never have windows placed in a way where there is no top bar visible or I can't just switch through other methods

Mac:
>intentionally click a button in a window other than the current active one at the front
>switches focus to that window AND NOTHING ELSE

Windows:
>intentionally click a button in a window other than the current active one at the front
>switches focus AND registers the click inside the window's UI simultaneously

Explain this bullshit mactoddlers.

Ubuntu MATE:
> Switch focus by moving the mouse over the windo

It can be enabled on many foss de/wm

>>62216887
Because it's more comfy when you use multiple screens?!

I hate the behavior of macOS.
If you switch windows often that extraclick is disgustingly annoying

Mactoddlerism:

The state in which you make more accidental clicks than intentional clicks, thus the behavior handling of unintentional clicks is more important.
