BUG: If the program is unresponsive, always click on the macOS finder

Hi Community, Hi Graphisoft,

I had so many problems, when ArchiCAD is unresponsive. When the program doesn't react.

Sometimes I double clicked the object symbol in the work list.

But since some weeks, I found this bug;

Always I must press to the macOS Finder icon, and then ArchiCAD wakes up again....

Some users have this problem, anybody else?

I had this issue since many many many ArchiCAD versions (24/25/26/27/28.....) but didn't find early this bug, that i must press the macOS finder icon button.....

Yes, I have seen this too. It appears you are using the ⌘-tab shortcut, which is what I do too: ⌘-tab to something other than Archicad then ⌘-tab back. I cannot be sure but I suspect certain new dialogs or palettes trigger this loss of focus.
