I know that the tool is not the most precise one, but it is enough in this case (we are talking about 10% difference here!). The height discrepancy can be easily seen even without any tool, and I am talking here only about the bright part inside the button, not taking into account borders & shadows. BTW - are you on El Capitan? I think it was ok on Yosemite. /Jacek _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
