Problem with popup menu on new session dialog window

Ahh, that makes sense.

@Nacho_Sotelo , I tinkered around with this for a bit and was able to find a workaround.

Turns out that using elementClick() on any element in that window triggers the accessibility mode, so I wrote this script to first try and change the sample rate, if it fails, it'll use elementClick() on that popupButton to trigger accessibility mode, and then it'll try to change the sample rate again.

It's a bit hacky but gets the job done!

const sampleRate = '44.1 kHz';
const sampleRatePopupBtn = sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is('Dashboard').first.popupButtons.allItems[2];

/** @param { AxElement } popupButton */
function makeSureAccessibilityModeIsOn(popupButton) {
    // Trigger Accessibility Mode with elementClick
    popupButton.elementClick({ asyncSwallow: true });
    sf.keyboard.press({ keys: "escape" });
};

try {
    // Try to change sample rate
    sampleRatePopupBtn.popupMenuSelect({
        menuPath: [sampleRate],
    });
} catch (err) {
    // If error, trigger accessibility mode and try again
    makeSureAccessibilityModeIsOn(sampleRatePopupBtn);

    sampleRatePopupBtn.popupMenuSelect({
        menuPath: [sampleRate],
    });
};

Cool thing is that this can be used on any popup menu that could fail in a similar way. I know I've had this happen with the ones on the New Tracks window.

I had the same issue in 3 different Macs (Mac Pro 2014, Macbook i7 2020 and MacBook i9 2019. All of them where configured from the scratch and loaded with original software. Today, I received the advice to get a ride of Google Chrome (I had it on all Macs) in order to improve the performance of mi i9. Once I tried Protools after uninstalling Chrome, I realiced thar the issue was SOLVED!!
I checked with some SoundFlow users friends who never had the issue and none of them had installed Chrome in their Comps.

To uninstall Chrome in a complete way, copy and execute one by one all this commands in a terminal.
Chrome full uninstall

rm -rf /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/
rm /Library/LaunchAgents/com.google.keystone*
rm -rf /Library/Application\ Support/Google/Chrome
