Devices behind a dock or hub now show where they're plugged in
This release is about your dock. If you connect through a dock, a hub, or a
monitor with USB ports, the devices hanging off it now appear nested under what
they're actually plugged into, instead of as a flat list or not at all.
Fixed
- Devices behind a dock or hub are listed, and nested correctly. WhatCable
now shows everything behind a dock or hub with each device under the hub it
sits on, so a trackpad behind a hub behind your dock reads as exactly that.
Before, those devices could appear as a flat list with no hierarchy, or be
counted but never listed. Thanks to @jesserobbins and @tomjn for the reports.
Under the hood
- Improved diagnostic data. The Contribute Diagnostic Data feature now
collects more accurate USB, Thunderbolt, and display information, which helps
us improve cable, port, and display detection across more Macs.
