Has anyone noticed a gray frame that sometimes appears peripherally around the screen? It's translucent gray border about a half inch wide and either on all four edges or on the sides and top. (It's gone right now, so I don't exactly remember if it's at the bottom, where my dock happens to be right now.) I wonder if it's a prompt of some kind. I haven't yet seen that pattern of strokes or conditions that causes it to appear or go away.

Also, I have inadvertently changed a preference of some sort. When I strike any of the lower corner keys once (such as shift, fn, ctrl, option, and control), it makes manual typewriter noise, as if you are locking in the "shift" key, and causes that key's symbol to appear on the screen. When I hit it a second time, it makes another manual typewriter noise, and causes that key's symbol to be a bolder white. A third strike causes it to disappear. Also, the strike of any other key causes it to disappear as well. I can't find any info on this. It is not num lock.

These two are not related, as the frame shows up very occasionally, and the clicky key thing just started about thirty minutes ago and is driving me crazy.

Help (as usual),
Claire
