Places the Touch Bar panel on your desktop so you can see how the menu changes depending on the selected app and also interact with the buttons. #Simulate Touch Bar #Launch simulator #Standalone Touch Bar #Simulate #Touch Bar #Simulator
The latest MacBook Pro models have replaced the function keys on the keyboard with the Touch Bar, which means that the corresponding space delivers access to many other buttons so you can interact with your apps.
If you don’t have access to the device, you can still interact with the software components if you launch the Touch Bar simulator from Xcode.
Touch Bar Simulator represents an alternative solution for being able to see and interact with the simulator without taking the time to deploy the Xcode development environment that requires a considerable amount of resources.
The Touch Bar Simulator application can be launched from virtually any location and is no way conditioned by Xcode. At the same time, the Touch Bar Simulator also includes a transparency slider and a capture screenshot button.
The later will grab a picture of the current Touch Bar state and automatically save it to your Desktop using the JPG file format. The screenshot only grabs the buttons area, without the simulator’s bar and will ignore the transparency settings.
Note that besides using the built-in button, Touch Bar Simulator also enables you to grab screenshot by using the Command + Shift + 6 hotkey. Moreover, the Command + Control + Shift + 6 keyboard combination will place the screenshot on your clipboard.
The Touch Bar Simulator is great if you want to check how the device reacts to a certain application without actually testing on a Touch Bar enabled machine.
What’s more, you get to run the tests outside the Xcode development environment, so you don’t have to waste any resources.
