"Switch to Login Screen" action not working in Big Sur

Bug Reports
1

I have the System Action 'Switch to Login Screen' assigned to a keyboard shortcut. Since upgrading to Big Sur it doesn't work at all. I've tried upgrading to the latest BTT alpha (3.508) but it's still not working.

Apologies if this has already been reported, but I did a search and couldn't find anything.

Affected input device
Apple Magic Keyboard with Numeric Keypad
Logitech MX Keys for Mac

Device information:
Type of Mac: Mac mini (2018)
macOS version: 11.0.1 (20B29)
BTT version: 3.508 alpha

I am also having the same problem :frowning:

on modern macOS you can workaround this by assigning the shortcut ctrl +cmd+q to a trigger in BTT

I'll check why the action doesn't work for you.

Ctrl+cmd+Q is Lock Screen, not Login Window.

I've developed an AppleScript that triggers the Login Window via GUI scripting.

Thanks for the response. Unfortunately, that shortcut is the Lock Screen shortcut and is different from the login window. I want to see a list of users.

ah sorry.
I looked into it and found a way to make it work again. I'll work on this for the next BTT version.

Should be fixed in the latest alpha (get via "check for alpha version updates")
