From the In The Release Notes? Dept:

Interesting behavior I've noticed in 10.2. Clicking on a window to an app will bring just that window forward -- interleaving windows of different applications.

Clicking on the application in the doc, however, will bring all of the app's windowns in front of background applications. (Classic MacOS behavior)

I don't think it was that way before - or am I wrong? Email me!





Ok, that "Speak When An Application Requires Your Attention" feature in Jaguar is really annoying with AIM.

And it only took me about an hour to find the proper setting. Not that it's buried or anything.. but that the control panels are so durn different

Next problem with the iMac-in-Jag: slow drawing of text when I type more then about 20 words a minute in text fields. The cursor moves, and it seems to remember all the text I typed (beyond the old 32 character limti that the old MacOS had (something like that)... it just doesn't display the text until maybe a half-second later. Disturbing? Yes

Wohooo.. the new TextEdit is pretty good. Rulers and all that jazz.
