[GNC] Strange Mac OS interface problem (John Ralls)

[V. Vatsal]

I have tried toggling the Mac OS level tabs as instructed by Dave, but it doesn’t make any difference.

The weird mouse behaviour seems limited to certain windows only.

I have no problems navigating the main GnuCash account window or any of its tabs; clicking on a line selects that line.

But if I try (say) to import an OFX, then the weird behaviour comes up. It also comes up in the file opening dialog box.

I don’t recall having this problem on my machine at home, which is where I had been using GnuCash for a while, on the same file. I will try that machine again this weekend, and see if it works.
