Hello E.T., It would appear that since El Capitán, partitioning a disc has become inaccessible. I’ve reported this to Accessibility. Numeric editable fields are provided for specifying the size of each partition, but when you change the values in these fields, they immediately revert to what they were. It seems that all partitions must be changed at the same time using the circular adjuster that we can’t use.
I’m utterly disgusted about this.
