I reckon the few Enigma items have been well discussed on PDK Chat but for a few strictly Mac-related items: 1. Changes in regards to how much of the Appearance Manager APIs affected plugins. 2. More limitations affecting which keys plugins could detect and use. 3. Changes in the dialog handler(s) which plugins are obliged to use. The fastest way to solve these kinds of problems for Macintosh plugins is to install MacsBug and send a log file to all the PI developers whose products you use. 90% of the time, the naughty function can be determined in these kinds of reports. Get MacsBug here: ftp://ftp.apple.com/developer/Tool_Chest/Testing_-_Debugging/Debuggers_-_dcmds/ MacsBug_6.6.3.sit.hqx Once intalled, if you have a crash type: "stdlog;es" <Return> (without the quotes) into the MacsBug command-line area and then send the file on.
