Mac OSX is another (1.8 tree).

Open an account window. Calendar works fine. Click back to the main window and 
then back on the account window to bring that back into focus. Calendar is 
blank.

Close the account window. Open it again and the Calendar works. Move to a 
previous transaction and click on the date field: Calendar fails again.

I still haven't got around to compiling G2 on the mac so all I can say is that 
my Debian system is also affected.

Your GUI skills are better than mine so it might have to remain one of those 
little bugs.

On the subject of Mac glitches, why would a QOF application work fine on Linux 
but not on a Mac? - although it's more than just that. It's an application 
that uses 4 QOF objects and a front-end (command-line). On the Mac, the front 
end and 3 objects work fine - try to use the fourth with any data and it 
crashes with an "Illegal Instruction" which I take to be Apple talk for a seg 
fault. It's a little more serious than a calendar not appearing and very 
frustrating. It's something in the QOF registration because even listing the 
parameter names of the object generates some real output and some complete 
garbage. Only noticed it tonight. More investigations are inevitable.
