[Fusion, MacOS, Bug] Browser menu appears on top of other applications after waking laptop from sleep, if Fusion was active but hidden..

I'm consistently seeing a weird bug with Fusion, where the Browser control appears above other apps I'm trying to use.

 

Specifically, here's the recipe for reproducing...

* On a Mac laptop, running Sonoma 14.5 version of the OS

* Open a project in Fusion

* Hide fusion ("Fusion" -> "Hide Fusion" menu item)

* Go to some other application window - E.g. Google Chrome or whatever.  Doesn't matter what the app is.

* Close laptop to put it to sleep

* Open laptop

* Notice: Fusion's Browser control now appears above whatever application you were using (!)

 

For example, if I do the above right now, as I'm in Chrome writing up this report, when I open my laptop, it looks like this:

Moreover, if I switch to another application, the Browser stays on top.  E.g. Switching to Cura...

The only way I've found to fix the problem is to open Fusion and then hide it again.

 

While this isn't a showstopper bug, it is rather annoying.  I split my time between my home and my office, so I open open/close my laptop multiple times per day, and I encounter this issue each time.

 

FWIW, here's the info for the version of Fusion I'm running:

@broofa This is a long standing issue with Fusion how ever we have addressed this with the recent update 2.0.20256. Please update to this version.

@RajkumarIlanchelian How do I get that version?

When I run the installer at https://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/personal-download , it says I'm on the latest version.

@broofa Here is another way to do this. 

1. Close Fusion (If you have created a shortcut for Fusion launch delete it)

2. Go to Launch pad - Run Fusion service utility

3. Run the repair command


This will take you to the latest version.
