For the first time ever, an apple update has gone weird on me. I'm getting a strange glitch where either the top or the bottom of the screen is stretching by a few pixels depending on where the mouse is. This is only happening on my account on the machine and it is driving me crazy! I've deleted my caches and some preferences, but to no avail.

Verify trackpad settings - hal4sn
WIthin System Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse > Trackpad, verify if Zoom while holding is enabled or not enabled. It's your choice.Also,
Within System Preferences > Universal Access > Zoom:, verify that zoom is set to off.

I traced the issue to one of my com.apple.*.plist files in my preferences. I checked my trackpad options, there is no zoom option there. I also checked the zoom in universal access, the behavior there did not match what was happening to me. I suspect the problem is a value in a plist that is incompatible with 10.4.10. Thank for the tip, I will look more into it later.Thursday, June 21 2007 @ 12:54 AM PDT
