Hi,
there is a very tiny and marginal issue about rendering in the content of the tooltip under Leopard.
If I have a string "simplified" (length 10) it will be displayed as "simplified" (length 9) caused by the used fi ligature. This leads to a small problem if one wants to output a pretty looking table for instance. Under Tiger is that not the case. Is this behaviour switchable?

What font are you using? I know one of the ProFont variants is very keen on using ligatures.
I show the text using an NSTextView, and AFAIK there is no way I can control the use of ligatures in this.

Oops, my fault. The font was the problem. On Tiger I used Monaco and on Leopard ForMateKonaVe.
