Handoff

TablePro publishes an NSUserActivity for the key window so Apple Continuity can hand off the current context to another Mac.

​
Requirements

  • Both Macs signed into the same iCloud account
  • Both Macs on the same Wi-Fi network with Bluetooth on
  • Handoff enabled in System Settings > General > AirDrop & Handoff
  • TablePro running on both devices

​
What gets handed off

The activity tracks the focused window and switches between two types based on what is selected:
  • com.TablePro.viewConnection: connection ID. Receiving Mac opens that connection.
  • com.TablePro.viewTable: connection ID and table name. Receiving Mac opens the connection and selects the table.
Switching between a query tab and a table tab updates the activity automatically. The activity title shows the table name when viewing a table, otherwise the connection name. Query text, scroll position, and unsaved edits are not included.

​
Use it

On the receiving Mac, the TablePro Handoff icon appears in the Dock and in the Cmd-Tab app switcher. Click it to open the same connection (and table, if any).
