    • macOS

    Description

      The effect maker on Mac creates shader files under /private/var/folders and this can create situation where Effect maker cannot be started anymore.

      Steps to repro:

      • Install Qt DS 3.8 and create effectMore
      • Install another copy of Qt DS and try to open effect maker

      Expected outcome:

      • Effect maker opens on the UI

      Actual outcome:

      • Effect maker is seen on the taskbar but it does not open on the UI
      • Analysing with dTruss reveals that it's trying to open shader templates under /private/var/folders where it does not have access rights 

      100% repro
