Strange screen updating behaviour on OS X 10.5.6 (3.5.8)

Very strange. this works fine on 2 separate macs of mine, running 10.5.6 and with the same java settings. I think i am using 1.5, but i never quite know when running developer as it doesnt bring up the debugging panel.

I put my solution on a new mac book running 10.5.6 same java settings and changes to tabe panel index does weird things to the screens, the new tab panel partly merges with the old one. This happens throughout the solution on every change. It only happens once per change, and then the transition occurs normally the second time.

I illustrate with 3 images showing the change. As i said this isnt one page, but nearly all transitions in the solution. The really odd thing is it works fine on my two other macs!

I suppose the first question to check is how do i find which version of Java Developer 3.5.8 is running under as the console doesnt appear and it isnt in the servoy log file?

Hello,
I had similar issues, but I could fix that by

  • increasing the memory up to 800m in /Applications/Servoy(3.5.8)/Servoy.app > Show Package Contents > open Info.plist (by TextEdit) > change -Xmx to 800M
  • using Java SE 6 on a 64 bit Intel Mac. Go to /Applications/Utilities/Java/ Java Preferences.app > set Java SE 6 on the top of Java applet versions and Java application version.

What kind of Java you have currently running you can find by ‘About’ in the Servoy Help Menue.

Hope that helps
Thomas
