Message-ID: <1991May24.032146.10126@schaefer.math.wisc.edu> Date: 24 May 91 03:21:46 GMT Organization: Univ. of Wisconsin Dept. of Mathematics Lines: 26 Since System 7 appears to be (um) Rock Solid, I guess we have to settle for finding small cosmetic problems :-). Here are a few: o In the Finder, obscure a portion of the white space to the left or right of the name of an object on the desktop, with a window. (Doing this with an icon doesn't seem to work). Make sure not to obscure any text, or the first pixel width of white space to the right. When you move the window away, the (erstwhile) white space is left gray. o In the Sharing Setup Control Panel, turn on application sharing. The descenders from the old message are not erased before the new message is drawn. (Is this petty, or what :-) o With Balloon Help on, and two applications open, make sure that there is a window belonging to the background application next to a (good sized) piece of desktop. Put the mouse inside that window, but drag it out just before the 'this window belongs to...' balloon comes up. If your timing is right, the balloon appears, referring to the desktop, and it stays there until you move the mouse outside that patch of desktop. This is fairly timing dependent. I'm on a plus. Other machines might just be too fast ;-). Command-Right Arrow is still universally dead (it doesn't work in SF dialogs, either), but that isn't just cosmetic, so it doesn't belong here ;-). -- Garth Dickie -- Math Graduate Student? -- dickie@math.wisc.edu
