Tab buttons wrong

[Terence Heaford]

I am getting confused with "darker tab is the active one”.

In system preferences/Desktop & Screen Saver as an example.

If you click on the Screen Saver Tab:

1. The text of the Screen Saver Tab is white and it’s background is blue.
2. The text of the Desktop Tab is black and it’s background is white.

If you place the system preferences behind another window then:

1. The text of the Screen Saver Tab is black and it’s background is dark grey.
2. The text of the Desktop Tab is black and it’s background is white.

This is on Yosemite 10.10.1

There are no tab controls in the preferences of Safari.
If you are referring to Safari’s tabs for web pages then they are not the same controls as the tabbed control that LiveCode are failing to implement correctly.

Tab controls in the preferences of Apple Mail work as above.

Tab controls in Xojo work as above.

Tab controls in the Date & Time System Preferences work as above.

Apple appear to be consistent to me.



All the best
