GUI inconsistency?


Recommended Posts

if it's on all windows, it's not really inconsistent is it?

I thought this was a thread to bitch about things like switching to "graphite" mode not working on finder windows, etc.

@ uiop, which 3rd party apps do you have installed ? I have ShapeShifter and WindowShade. I think it might be one of those apps doing it. not sure though.

I have none installed actually. I'm not into modding the appearances

Yup, Panther has a few UI glitches. Here are the ones I've experienced so far:

1. the shadows under icon names on the desktop are a little messed up after invoking Expose

(regardless of that, the way selected icons on the desktop are highlighted is just plain ugly)

2. by default the Inspector window is positioned in a way that part of the window's titlebar is hidden behind the menu bar

3. the unfold animation in the Info window seems to be slower than in Jag (at least that's the feeling I get)

4. no transition animation in Finder's preferences window

5. black borders at the top and on the left of pages displayed in Help Viewer

I don't get this icon issue at all.

I have no items on my desktop, so I create a new folder called "untitled folder". I expos? the living crap out of this system but I just can't make the icons break like you've shown. Is this a problem for the standard desktop icons only (hard disks, external drives, network shares, etc) or does it effect everything?

I doesn't always happen. I'm not even sure if it's actually Expose that causes that. Pressing F9 now, the shadows remain the way they should. But what I know is that if I just do my business without paying attention to them, they're gonna get messed up sooner or later.
