From my side of things, its stupidly boring, It can (and should) easily be done by a computer

@Bastien Montagne (mont29) do the code recognize the keyboard layout?
If so maybe a temporary "solution" could be to simply have a message in the keymap settings that warns about the special keys behaviour.

@Ivan Cappiello (icappiello) I agree (and experienced similar issues on French keyboards since the beginning of my Blender usages ;) ). Just saying that this cannot be considered a bug, as it most likely requires a fair amount of work (including some design/research) to properly solve it… :/

@Bastien Montagne (mont29) Then you should at least consider moving this new 2.8 minimal keymap on keys that are available on most keyboard layouts, or maybe create new hacks. In effect the view pie menu is completely unavailable and not remappable in any way in italian layout. And you may imagine the user experience you get if you switch to an US layout keeping your keyboard italian.

It is indeed similar issue as in T67130: keyboard layout problems., so… same answer. ;)

@Brecht Van Lommel (brecht) did the event debug data give any clue on how to handle this?

seems to be the same as:
https://developer.blender.org/T67130

Re-downloading the current RC should also solve this problem.

@Brecht Van Lommel (brecht): I think this is solved with your commits, right?

rBSc42b7f843464a810ffd587704ab1ceaf9fee0172

Well, this bug happens 1 out of 10 times, but it's really unpredictable and hard to catch...
You may open 20 .blend files fine, and then open other .blend file and this happens....

Official build updated now.

Thanks @Brecht Van Lommel (brecht) That seems to do the trick.

No time to test today to replace the official build, but this one should work in theory:
https://download.blender.org/ftp/brecht/builds/blender-2.80rc1-macOS.dmg

Strangely, I cannot reproduce it either (with July 2 build or recent RC1)
I didn't make it up (I have no reason to do so :)
But it is strange...

Hi @Brecht Van Lommel (brecht) . I'm still seeing an issue with that link you sent.

The latest build should work now:
https://download.blender.org/release/Blender2.80/blender-2.80rc1-macOS.dmg

thanks @Brecht Van Lommel (brecht) :D

Think i understand what you mean now.

Possible solution here:
https://code.activestate.com/lists/pythonmac-sig/24597/

For the ctypes issues I've created T66986: macOS code signed release errors with Python ctypes.

Changing the value using the trackpad is really essential?
Does it crash also if you enter and confirm different resolution values?
Can you try disabling overlays? (just press the button that is usually above the camera icon in the upper right corner of the 3D view).

I can record video tomorrow (today I can’t) to show exactly what i mean

I mean opening .blend file from finder.

By opening Blender from Finder, what of the following you mean:

• Going to the Applications folder, and starting Blender from there?
• Opening .blend file, which is supposed to start Blender and open the file of choice in it?

No, it’s not that
What i mean that it doesn’t open file. It starts blender with default scene, but not opening file.
If blender is already launched — yes, it loads file. But if blender is quit, and then you tries to open blender file from finder — it just launches blender with default scene

I am a bit confused here. What is "scene in file" ?
Opening Blender from finder without providing any file is supposed to open default startup setup for that Blender version (will be factory settings first time, or your saved startup if you import it from previous Blender or save it again in a newer version).

It was factory on a brand new MacBook. I've recently downloaded RC1 and have been able to Quit with Disregard and Save my file... so maybe just a transient bug in the previous beta build or a fluke with what all I did up to the point I tried to quit that first time. Can close this out then.

Thanks all for the reports. We've uploaded a new build here that should work:

The download on blender.org will have the fix as well, but it might take a bit for all download mirrors to be updated.

Hi @Brecht Van Lommel (brecht) ,
I'm still unable to select the DOF using "DOF Distance (Pick)" on the right click menu, even with the new download link you provided.
Best,

Addons import/export OK after "Load Factory Settings" which is like a reset system!!!
