You are right. I didn’t expect the dots to be different, but every 10th dot is the bigger one.
BTW: I do seem to get a popup “OpenGL 2.1 supported” on every start recently. Is that on intention and what should it tell me (apart from the fact that OpenGL 2.1 is supported… :) )? It is quite annoying… could this information maybe be moved to the About dialog?
