Installation of GC Intel 2.6.16 on Sierra, mouse click does not work correctly

[Lothar Beyer]

Finally I found out what the problem seems to be:
When I open a window, any window for that matter like registers, main window, preferences, the window will not open completely. I discovered it first with the preference window: I opened it and only the top third of the bottom left close button is visible. In this situation the mouse is of by 1 to 2 lines (=rows). Once I have enlarged the window, so that the full button is visible it works fine. That same behavior also occurs in windows without buttons (like Forward, Close, Save etc). I always have to slightly enlarge or scale down the window and the mouse works ok.
Regards 
Lothar

Does the location error seem random, i.e. sometimes you have to click above the register's date field and sometimes below, or does it seem to depend on the field, so that for the date field it's (perhaps) always above but for the transfer account field it's always below and the credit field is always to the left and so on?
