Summary: NSTextView supports “Search with Google” in the context menu. This will always use Safari to open Google and ignore the default browser set in SystemPreferences.app Steps to Reproduce: To make it easier to reproduce this bug I’ll use TextEdit as an example. 1. Open System Preferences and under About change the default browser to Google Chrome (or any other non Safari browser) 2. Open Text Edit, select text and select “Search with Google” from the context menu. Expected Results: Google will open in Google Chrome or the configured non Safari browser. Actual Results: Always Safari will launch Regression: / Notes: This code would do the correct thing: [[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] openURL:aURL];
