PS Have you reported the dialog box+Leopard issue to MM? I'm really hoping there will be a fix to this before Fin2009!

I have not noticed any dialog box problems in earlier versions under Leopard -- so far, they seem fine (although I haven't tried Fin2007).

Cheers,

Crash-on-quit with 10.5 is fixed in Fin2008a.

My current biggest problem with Fin2008a and Leopard is that I find that many dialog boxes do not disappear on clicking OK unless I switch to a different app and switch back. Logging out and back in fixes the issue temporarily.

Is anyone else seeing this? I wonder if it's Spaces-related. I have tried disabling Spaces, but the ctrl-arrow shortcuts still work. I'm finding that Spaces is really, really buggy -- far buggier than any other OS feature Apple has put out in a long time.

I know that the Crash-on-quit issue is written up as being fixed, and it probably is for many people. I have to report that it still happens to me every time. (OS 10.5.1, PPC, Finale 2008a).

As to the dialog boxes not closing, I started noticing this even in Finale 2007 after I switched to Leopard (to test it out). The clicking of OK or Cancel in many, but not all dialog boxes, doesn't work unless you hold down the mouse for a long time. Using the Enter key on the number keypad does work however, as does the Esc key for Cancel. The additional problem is that if you expect some action to take place by pressing Enter, the box closes, but the action doesn't always happen.

I too have a hunch that Spaces is involved in this bug, so I'm going to test it some more by turning it off and removing all key commands related to it.

If anyone else has anomalies to report, please do so! It sure helps to know that you aren't alone with something only affecting you.
