Unable to Create Files Adjacent to User-Selected File Due to App Sandbox Permissions
I am developing a macOS app that requires the ability to create new files in the same directory as a user-selected file, but I am encountering permission issues due to the App Sandbox restrictions. While the user can select a file (e.g., a.jpg) using a standard open panel, I cannot create an adjacent file (e.g., a.jxl) in the same folder because the sandbox only grants access to the selected file, not to other files in the directory. I understand that full disk access might be an option, but it requires user intervention and isn't suitable for this case. Is there any way to extend access to other files in the directory (including those not selected by the user) while remaining within the App Sandbox environment?
