Hiya gang, I just upgraded to Jaguar (Mac Os X.2) and have a small problem. Whenever Im working in Carrara and leave the computer idle long enough for the screen saver to come on, a problem occurs when I wake the computer back up. The top menu bar from the OS stays superimposed on top of carrara and I can no longer access the top Carrara menu bar. This also happens sometimes when I switch back to carrara after having messed around in the finder or in another application so just turning off the screen saver wont solve the whole problem. :o) Anybody else have this problem? If my explanation is kind of nebulous, please let me know. Cheers, Max

I think this bug was reported in an earlier post here. After Finder crashes in OS 9.x, you get redraw problems like that with other apps, which are sometimes fixed by quitting the Finder BION.

That menu-bar-thingy is fixed with v.2.1 (at least on my machine) -> http://www.eovia.com/download/updates_car.jsp Bob.

carrara 2.1 and osx 10.2.1 seem like a good combination. fixes your bug and is nice and stable. i have multiple drives and went up to 10.2.3 on one of them but found it crashed carrara a bit, so i'm sticking with 10.2.1 for now. i really recommend having a spare drive to test updates on. it is huge not having to go back and reinstall everything to downgrade the system software.

Hi folks, I ran the updater and it appears to have fixed my problem. Thanks. Actually I had updated Carrara awhile ago when I was still running in 9.2 but then I kept crashing so i reinstalled my original Carrara2.0. But in Jaguar eveything appears to be running smoothly. Thanks for the tip. Cheers, Max
