“Show / Hide Menu Bar Icons” action no longer working

The action “Show / Hide menu bar items / icons left of selected item” no longer works — icons aren’t hidden when triggered.

This used to work fine. Recreating the action, checking permissions etc. didn’t help.

Bug or internal change?

which version are you on?

I’m currently using Alpha 5.507.

However, the issue already occurred briefly a few weeks ago — back then I deleted and recreated the action, and it worked again. But now it has stopped working completely for the past 1–2 days.

Yesterday I also installed the macOS 26 beta, and the action doesn’t work there either. Other than that, BTT seems to run fine so far.

on the beta it’s a known issue, that will be fixed during the next weeks before the launch of macOS 26
