I used to use Quartz debug often, but in the last couple of times that I've used it I can make it work. Is anyone able to make it work? Did something change about how I should use it? Here's what I'm doing:
1. OS X 10.11.1
An XQuartz installation consists of many individual pieces of software which have various licenses. The X.Org software components’ licenses are discussed on the X.Org Foundation Licenses page. The quartz-wm window manager included with the XQuartz distribution. Quartz Debug is included in 'Additional Tools for Xcode' available at developer.apple.com. Using screencapture when remotely logged in to a headless mac via ssh. After updating to El Capitan and installing the most updated version of Graphics Tools for Xcode 7, I noticed that the option to disable BeamSync in Quartz Debug is gone. This is a huge issue when playing high FPS games on a Mac, and has yet to be resolved.
2. Quartz Debug Version 4.2 (180)
Macos Quartz Debug
3. Open Quartz Debug
3. Verify that 'Enable Quartz Debug' is check in the panel.
4. Check 'Flash screen updates'
5. Launch my app from Xcode
6. Expect to see yellow flashes when I type in my apps NSTextView, but I don't see yellow flashes anywhere in any app... what do I need to do to see those again?
