Did anyone test Max on MacOS Catalina Beta?
I plan to do it this coming week.

I'm curious about this. Is Max already signed by Apple? Otherwise it won't run.
For the same reason, I guess that standalone apps created in Max won't run either.

Is there an official statement from Cycling74 about support for MacOS Catalina?

@Lucas, in my experience app works. but need to codesigned with an Apple ID (but can be as simple as running a script when you build it).

@Personal_usename
which version of Max have you tried? also, the script you were referring to, care to explain more?
Thanks!

well, IF you have an apple Developed ID you can use something like this: https://www.digicert.com/code-signing/mac-os-codesign-tool.htm to automate the process for your app signature. Then it becomes painless. As for the Max version I have latest version, and it's working fine

Thanks for the info.... still on Max 7 here, so a bit concerned

Max 7 seems to be working on Catalina for me. Drawing in wave shapes with the Apple Pencil on my iPad is nice.
