Yes APFS. Yay, another variable! a) BibDesk 1.5.6 on Macmini8,1 running Mojave / APFS, showing icons: molasses. b) BibDesk 1.5.6 on Macmini8,1 running Mojave / APFS, without icons: fine. c) BibDesk (any) on MacBookPro11,2 running High Sierra / HFS+, showing icons: molasses. d) BibDesk (any) on MacBookPro11,2 running High Sierra / HFS+, without icons: fine. e) Unison 2.40.61 on MacBookPro11,2 running High Sierra / HFS+, showing icons: molasses. f) Bibdesk 1.5.6 on MacBookPro11,2 running Yosemite / HFS+, showing icons: fine. g) Unison 2.40.61 on MacBookPro11,2 running Yosemite / HFS+, showing icons: fine. (But f|g has other problems that started me on this upgrade treadmill. Which I loathe, though I must acknowledge the gain in features and [elsewhere] speed. That’s life I guess! I’ll look if others noticed anything in Unison.)
