OS X testers needed - Page 2

Madam Broshkina · 11-17-2010, 05:23 PM

I am on Mac Os X 10.6.5 and the icon to add books also does not work for me. Clicking on the words "Add Books" does work. All the other icons work.

I'm seeing this behaviour if I click on the upper portion of the button. Say anything in the top 1/3 of it.

@notsure: You're right, apparently clicking in the top 1/3rd of the button doesn't work, I'll look into why, but I'm not too hopeful, as I have no idea what could cause this.

Yes, all the other icons work.

After reading that I clicked at the bottom of the icon, and my click does what it should do. Thank you! I always clicked in the area of the cross and since it always used to work before with the previous releases, I never even thought to go down.

I can confirm the same issue. When I click on the icon, nothing happens. When I click on the arrow beside the icon and then choose any Add Book item, it works. Previous versions opened 'Add Book from a single...' when clicking on the icon alone.

Okay, I've just tried it again and I think it's something to do with the click map parameters -- hope that's what it's called

If I click high or in the middle of the icon it doesn't work. When I click lower -- almost on the icon text it works.

Hope that helps.

Confirming what has been already confirmed and discussed in the last 4 posts can't hurt. Who knows your "click map parameters" might be the key to the whole thing.

Found the problem, will be fixed in the release.

notsure · 11-18-2010, 12:07 PM

So the next release will move this "beta" into the regular stream?
