Release 24.07 of the macOS SDK contains bug fixes, stability improvements, and security enhancements.  

Resolved Issues

New
215201

Monitors operating in the native portrait orientation are not supported in Anyware sessions. Use of portrait monitors in-session results in screen layout with incorrect orientation.

Workaround:

Do not use portrait oriented monitors during Anyware sessions. Instead, use landscape monitors.

PCoIP Client quits unexpectedly when exiting full screen while audio source is running (MacBook Pro)

 
171658

Exiting full screen mode while an audio source is running may cause the session to quit unexpectedly. This issue affects clients running on recent MacBook Pro hardware.

Workaround:

Stop audio sources, including video with audio, before leaving full-screen mode to avoid this issue.

If the session does disconnect, reconnecting will resume the session.

The name of network shown in Anyware Health Monitor does not change during a session

 
169411

In Anyware Health Monitor, the name of network shown will not change during a session even if the actual network changes.

For example, if an ethernet cable is pulled out and the system switches to WiFi, the name of network will not change in the Anyware Health Monitor display until the session is disconnected and reconnected.

MacOS support bundler issues

Several issues have been identified with the support bundler for the macOS client.

macOS client may only minimize one display on OS X 10.11

 
61740

If you launch the PCoIP Software Client in OS X 10.11 and you have not clicked anywhere within the display before using the minimize hot key (Ctrl+Alt+M), the display that has not been used will not be minimized. This does not occur in macOS 10.12 (Sierra) or 10.13 (High Sierra).

Workaround:

Click with the mouse on both displays of the client any time before pressing Ctrl+Alt+M, and both displays will be minimized.
