Macpass: Autotype does not work at all

[tpluscode]

Describe the bug

Recently I've been unable to get it to work where is used to before.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to a website whose title matches an entry
2. Press auto type key combination
3. No Match for Item-0

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• macOS: 10.15.2
• Version 0.7.11

Can you elaborate "where it used to before" ab "recently" a bit more? Did this occur with the update to 0.7.11 or did it happen with 0.7.10 as well? Item-0 looks like MacPass is not able to get the correct window title. Sometime this is also a "Focus Proxy" window title, which happend a lot when using Autotype on the AppStore.

To narrow this down pleas supply a list of Apps where Autotype is broken now and where it still works.

Ah indeed. So it stopped working in Safari 13.0.4. Latest Chrome (80) and Firefox (72) are fine

[tpluscode]

I'm not sure which MacPass version it last worked with. May not have upgraded to each one

[mstarke]

This is not a direct solution but you could use the AutotypeURL plugin which will read the URL of safari (and chrome) windows and allow direct URL extraction instaed of having to rely on the window title. You might want to give it a try. But the problem still needs fixing.

Oh, that plugin's awesome. I've been waiting for such a feature ever since I've been using MacPass. Thanks!

You should thank @georgesnow for coming up with the idea and implementing it.

Reverted to 0.7.10 for now to fix the issue.

@aesyondu what problem are you encountering? This seems unrelated to the original issue. Item-0 matching is something that comes up when safari displays a status icon and I'm currently testing some mitigations that will get published soon if I get to it considering the current circumstances.

[aesyondu]

Oh my bad, it is indeed unrelated. I don't use the title matching feature yet, didn't know there was one.

In 0.7.11, Cmd + t (Perform Autotype) stopped working, so I downloaded 0.7.10 and it worked again. Now that you mentioned it, I downloaded 0.7.11 again and Perform Autotype seems to work fine.

The inital issue should be solved with 16ca18623e1333c0f7f129081163676eaed4e039

@aesyondu Nice that Autotype works again. This might have been an issue with Permissions and MacPass not properly reporting that something is not correctly set up.
