We will do our best to answer you for one working day. myPoint and Catalina / Big Surv1.13
The new 1.13 version is build according to the last Apple Privacy Policy.
So the app should not require registration in the "Privacy Input Monitoring" list anymore.
v1.1 - 1.11
On a Catalina system an old application must be registered in the "Input Monitoring" list in order to deal with input devices (like keyboard and mouse) while in background.
As myPoint monitors some hotkeys and mouse events all the time it should be registered or it will work only while it's in front.
To simplify the process Catalina will ask the user to register such an app.
Here is a description of the same case with myPoint. When myPoint is launched for the first time a box with "Keystroke Receiving" title will appear.
If the user denies the "Keystroke Receiving" request, Catalina will not ask any more. So the user must register the app manually.
Disabled buttons in system pop upsAll versions
The "disabled buttons" issue is a new feature introduced with macOS Catalina.
It is available in the latest macOS too.
A permission-requesting pop-up (window, panel, etc.) must not be overlapped by another app window.
For example, any window dragged above the permission panel will disable its buttons.
So on-screen assistive apps (like screen shades, mouse crosshairs and locators, etc.) should be toggled off until the user choose the permission action.
The easiest way to deal with this issue is to disable the running tool:
