The grey border indicates the current selection in the raster when the raster does not have the input focus. When it once again gets the input focus the grey border turns to a black line inside a white line. The ATK notion is that an inset is supposed to indicate whether it has the input focus or not. In text this is done by completely removing the indication of the current selection, which unfortunately cannot be distinguished from the case where the selection is elsewhere in the file than the visible part of the file. For rasters the choice was to change the selection border as indicated above. If there is consensus as to how to indicate the focus/no-focus condition, the raster inset could be changed. Fred Hansen
