I searched the Metal Shading Language Specification Version 3.0 document, however I cannot see any function for inverting a matrix. Is there really no function in Metal for inverting a matrix? I often need to this in linear equations and have so far resorted to writing the necessary function each time, most of the time just copy-and-pasting code. inverse exists in SIMD and GLSL, so why not in Metal? It seems so unexpected that this function does not exist that I am almost certain I have just overlooked something obvious. I even tried 1 / M, to no avail.

Hello, Im trying to install it following these steps https://www.applegamingwiki.com/wiki/Game_Porting_Toolkit but i get an error with 'brew install apple/apple/game-porting-toolkit' ==> tar -xf crossover-sources-22.1.1.tar.gz --include=sources/clang/* --strip-components=2 ==> cmake -G Ninja -DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=Off -DCMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM=ninja -DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=On -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTUR Last 15 lines from /Users/rafael/Library/Logs/Homebrew/game-porting-toolkit-compiler/02.cmake: -DLLVM_INSTALL_TOOLCHAIN_ONLY=On -DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS=clang /private/tmp/game-porting-toolkit-compiler-20250519-44600-qwrjgl/llvm CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:3 (cmake_minimum_required): Compatibility with CMake < 3.5 has been removed from CMake. Update the VERSION argument <min> value. Or, use the <min>...<max> syntax to tell CMake that the project requires at least <min> but has been updated to work with policies introduced by <max> or earlier. Or, add -DCMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM=3.5 to try configuring anyway. -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred! If reporting this issue please do so to (not Homebrew/* repositories): apple/apple MacOS 15.3.1 Thank you in advanced Regards

We are seeing crashes in Xcode organizer. So far we are not able to reproduce them locally. They affect multiple app releases (some older, built with Xcode 15.x and newer built with Xcode 16.0). They only affect iOS 18.5. Is there anything that changed in latest iOS? It's hard to tell what exactly is causing this crash because setting symbolic breakpoint on CA::Render::Image::new_image(unsigned int, unsigned int, unsigned int, unsigned int, CGColorSpace*, void const*, unsigned long const*, void (*)(void const*, void*), void*) triggers this breakpoint all the time, but not necessarily with exactly the previous stack frames matching the crash report. Is it a known issue? crash.crash Thank you.

We as a team of engineers work on an app intended to visualize medical images. The type of situations where the app is used involves time critical decision making for acute clinical conditions. Stability of the app and performance are of utmost importance and can directly help timely treatment action. The app we are developing uses multiple libraries and tools like vtk, webgl, opengl, webkit, gl-matrix etc. The problem specifically can be described as follows, it has been observed that when 3D volume is rendered in the app and we try to rotate the volume the rotation is slow, unresposive and laggy. Specifically, we have noticed that iOS 18.1 the volume rotation is much smoother as compared to latest iOS 18.2. Eariler, we have faced somewhat similar issue with iOS 17 but it got improved in iOS 18.1. This performance regression is affecting the user experience in our healthcare application. We have taken reference from the cornerstone.js code and you can reproduce the issue using the following example: https://www.cornerstonejs.org/live-examples/volumeviewport3d Steps to Reproduce: Load the above mentioned test example on an iPhone running version 18.2 using safari. Perform volume rendering using the provided dataset. Measure the time taken by volume for each rotate or drag action. Repeat the same steps on an iPhone running version 18.1 for comparison. Additional Information: Device Model Tested: iPhone12, iPhone13, iPhone14 iOS Version With Issue: 18.2 18.3(Beta) I would appreciate any insights or suggestions on how to address this performance regression. If additional information is needed, please let me know. Thank you.

Hello XQuartz is an open-source effort to develop a version of the X.Org X Window System (https://www.xquartz.org/), widely used to bring graphical support to applications running in remote servers (usually via SSH). Since macOS Tahoe, XQuartz fails to refresh properly on window resize (more info here https://github.com/XQuartz/XQuartz/issues/438#issuecomment-3371409500), leading to severe usability issues. The XQuartz developers are already aware of the issue, but I’m wondering if there’s anything we can do at the OS level to resolve it and restore the usual behavior from before macOS Tahoe. Thanks, KiM
