@normis any update on a native mac app for winbox?
just seen your new youtube video and saw a NEW winbox icon,
then found this post and realised its been around for 3 months now, surely the has been progress?
ive been using https://github.com/nrlquaker/winbox-mac but the is bugs with the ‘Open in a new window’ option
and its the same using wine64 native too
NOTE im using Intel mac not ARM (we arent all rich)
Usually in situations where you have a winbox issue that others cannot reproduce, it helps to remove the session file.
Unfortunately you will lose all settings you made to the user interface.
You can see what session file you are using when you enable Advanced mode and try to open a new session.
new session and the problem was resolve…but now I have that reconfig all tabs in windows…I think that this type of config would be better in one config.ini file or similar
when I was finishing config the windows I tried and it didn’t work anymore
the fault is not in the session file
I have debugged the error and I think that already found the problem
Windows in Inline Comments
If Comment tab is at the end - Detail Mode works
If Comment tab is in any other position - Detail Mode does not work
If Comment tab is in any other position and Inline Comments mode is disabled - Detail Mode does not work
I think I found the cause of this problem - disabling font smoothing with Wine 7.x and newer causes this behaviour while it does not with Wine 6.0. Dude does not have the problem with any Wine version.
As font smoothing is enabled by default this problem can be unnoticed by most.
It would be nice when the title bar would also display (optionally?) the “Note” alongside the “Session” that is already displayed.
(I mean the “Note” from the Managed Addresses list in Winbox, not the “Note” in the router itself)
Regarding question, does WinBox use API? I use Winbox on a router that was seeing thousands of login attempts via the API. In IP/Services I disabled the API, Login attempts stopped and Winbox continued to function. Just FYI.
It does not use the same TCP port as API, but I guess it uses a similar underlying protocol, with some additional capabilities to download the menu structure etc.
