Mac using Framers tip



Don't know if I have posted this in the past or not, but if you are using
Frame 5.x and running OS 8.0 or 8.1, then you have a bug to contend with
(and one that really drove me bonkers until I got the fix).  There is a
problem with the Appearance Manager extension that can cause text to be
mangled upon scrolling, and can make even unmangled text display
incorrectly (horizontal placement is off).  This bug also affects some
other applications, and the makers of Mathematica (one of the affected
apps) have worked with Apple to write a patch for this extension.

You can pick up a copy of the patch at
ftp://ftp.wolfram.com/pub/outgoing/Support/AppearancePatch/

It takes just seconds to apply.  Be sure to read the ReadMe file and follow
the directions.

Hope this is of use to some of you.
