Installed 10.2.3 recently, just noticed that the close, minmise and maximise buttons in the title bars on certain apps now look 'embedded' in the title bar rather than embossed on the top of it.

Instead of looking like small droplets on the title bar, they now look like screws that have been inserted too far.

This is noticeable on Safari and Calculator, but not on iTunes, strangely. Anyone else have this?

Obviously this is a serious bug in Apple's new operating system which I will have to bring to their attention in faxes, telegrams, emails and written complaints. They'll never get OSX into the enterprise with this gargantuan error.

It's not a bug, it's a feature. Try the search button and you'll find hundreds of messages about these new buttons.

BTW- It's called "Brushed Metal" or "Textured" if you're being anal. Platinum is the OS 9 Appearance (the only reason I bothered opening this thread!).

When I saw this at first, I found it strange. But now that I see it in Safari, it looks like apple is planning using different 'embedded' for brushed-metal windows. Just looks at the button bar, or the clear button in the download window.

iPhoto, iTunes and Quicktime Player do not use the standard system brushed-metal theme, but I guess the next update will make theses buttons consistant with the new standard.

What I don't like about theses the new close and minimize 'embedded' buttons is that they now bring the window to the front when you click them.
