Known Bugs for CrystalClear Interface 2.5
Updated for CCI 2.5.8.5, 11/10/11
Note: This list excludes bugs for applications that are included in CCI's "Incompatible Applications" list. Bugs for these apps are documented elsewhere.
On Snow Leopard:
- Finder unexpectedly restarts when you eject a disk image. The workaround for this is to select another item in the sidebar after ejecting the disk image, and before Finder completes the eject operation
- When upgrading to iTunes 10.4 or later, the “license agreement” screen will freeze, not letting you click any button. The solution is to add iTunes to your list of “disabled” apps in CCI’s System Preferences pane, and then run iTunes again. After you get iTunes running, you can, if you wish, re-enable CCI for iTunes, since 10.4 and later will now load it.
- Occasionally, when an application generates a program error (not necessarily caused by CCI), sheets themed with CCI may start to appear with a white edge at the top. This may be accompanied by some graphical flickering when windows animate or resize.
- Pages’ document window title is black when should be white.
- Springy crashes when you close a window that’s set to icon view.
- When you are using the window blur effect, a light (or dark) vertical line may appear at about the center point of document windows, as an artifact of the window frame.
- When using the Glossy button theme, the buttons may appear with blue “stripes” inside its border when rendering on windows that don’t load CCI.
- Adjusting the color sliders when working in HSB values causes the H, S, and B values to change when you change on of the others.
- Users have reported that these applications crash when they have CCI loaded, but I haven’t been able to investigate:
- Delicious Library
- File Finder
- Mathematica
- Adobe Acrobat 8.0
- Adobe Photoshop CS 5.0
- When opening TotalFinder for the first time after installing CCI, some of its tabs may become corrupted. The behavior doesn't occur when launching the software again.
On Lion:
- The Finder sidebar text tends to “smear” when you resize the window. The problem corrects itself through various actions, including resizing the sidebar.
- For some (at this point unknown) reason, functions that require the user to authenticate (enter a username and password) fail when run in TextEdit on Lion.
- Because of Lion’s very robust caching of windows and window content, the process of logging in when running CCI can take much longer than on Snow Leopard. Sometimes, login goes quickly... other times not. Loading into individual apps also seems to be a bit slower than on Snow Leopard.
- When Safari first launches, the URL location field has a transparent background. The second window you launch will not have this problem.
