Does anybody know if the notch is an obstacle for the cursor? Does the mouse pass through the notch or does it need to go around?

- smoldesu 5y agoUnless you have a menubar that spans across the notch, in which case the behavior changes for some reason to teleport your cursor across the notch. Mind you that this is not the same behavior for statusbar icons for whatever reason, they will reside underneath the notch (yet still accessible for) unless the aforementioned global menu expands beyond the notch, in which case it just starts hiding random statusbar icons until it fits.
- david422 5y ago> behavior changes for some reason to teleport your cursor across the notch Which was always the cardinal sin in mac os HIG - never move the mouse.
- cassianoleal 5y agoIt doesn't though. You still have to move it yourself, only instead of it going underneath the notch, it teleports across. Not automatically. You need to move it.
- wlesieutre 5y ago"Some reason" being so that moving from a menu to the adjacent menu with the notch in between is the same short mouse movement as between other adjacent menus, instead of having a longer move through the dead space of the notch. I tried one in the Apple Store but didn't think to check any software with a >50% full menubar to see if that feels weird or not. If they hadn't done this, someone would be complaining these menus are supposed to be 10 pixels apart, but I have to move my mouse 100 pixels instead. If it bugs you, hit cmd-I on the application and put it in the no-notch mode.
