For buttons, it's worth noting that we've fixed the sizing behavior of Mac buttons. In Developer/2000 Release 1.2, it's necessary to expand all buttons on the Mac to make sure all the text is visible, largely because we were reserving space around the pushbuttons for the default-button highlighting. This will be fixed in Developer/2000 Release 1.2.1, which should be available sometime in August. (This is also the release which will include 68K runtimes.)
