What I meant to note is that in the various “Preferences” panels that have
tabs, like the “Sounds” panel (I’m still on Mavericks), the currently selected
tab (what I called the “active tab”) is dark and the unselected tabs are white,
or lighter in color. Whereas on Safari (an Apple app also) and
I am getting confused with "darker tab is the active one”.
In system preferences/Desktop & Screen Saver as an example.
If you click on the Screen Saver Tab:
1. The text of the Screen Saver Tab is white and it’s background is blue.
2. The text of the Desktop Tab is black and it’s background is wh
It’s very interesting because Safari, Firefox, Excell, most Mac applications
have lighter colored tabs for the active tab. The tabs in the Systems
Preferences work so the darker tab is the active one. Seems, with Safari at
least, Apple is inconsistent.

In addition the text in the button is offset far to much towards the bottom of
the tab.
There is a bug report for this one but it has not been incorporated into the
last release.

Except when the window is inactive the colours of the tab are not dimmed.

Looks like I was wrong on this one. In the OSX Preferences window, the active
tab is set to a dark grey, while the inactive tabs are light grey. In Safari,
Firefox, and other programs, the active tab is light and the inactive tabs are
darker. Weird. Oh well, my bad. The Tabbed control in Liveco
BTW, the tab buttons I’m talking about are on the tabbed button control. I know
there was discussion about the color of the text on the buttons, but this seems
like a big bug to me. The active tab should be lighter, while the inactive tabs
are greyed darker.
Comments before I submit a bug repor
Folks:
On a Mac, when there are tabs, the active tab is hilited and the inactive tabs
are greyed out. I’ve seen postings on this previously and figured the situation
was fixed. But, not so in LC V7.0.1(rc3) on Mavericks.
This seems to be a bug that should be fixed. It’s simply backwards from wha
