Safari 15 drawing tab close button (X) inconsistently in compact mode:
Safari 15 draws tab close button inconsistently in compact mode
FB9670951 — macOS

Basic Information

Please provide a descriptive title for your feedback:

Safari 15 draws tab close button inconsistently in compact mode

Which area are you seeing an issue with?
Safari

What type of issue are you reporting?
Incorrect/Unexpected Behavior

Details

What does the Safari issue you are seeing involve?

Tabs

Description

Please describe the issue and what steps we can take to reproduce it:

Safari 15 draws tab close button inconsistently in compact mode. Close button (X) is blurry and also bigger on selected tab, while close button on unselected tabs is smaller and sharp but also not centred.

Steps to reproduce:
Go to Safari preferences -> Tabs, select Compact Tab layout, then open at least 2 tabs and hover over one that’s not selected.
The difference is more visible if native display resolution is used (1x scaling), so you may also want to change the resolution.

Expected result:
Tab close button (X) looks the same size and is not blurry.

Actual result:
Tab close button (X) is drawn differently depending if tab is selected or not.

the only thing i see here is that the highlighted tab's 'x' box is slightly larger than the others. otherwise, they're not blurry here, or uncentered...

I pointed out that it is harder to see on 2x scaling, plus separate tab layout doesn't have this problem.
As for centering I forgot to include that it's not centered in rectangle that appears on hover, this one's unlike the other is minor issue but issue non the less.

i run both my macs on 'more space', and spend very little time interacting with the close buttons on tabs. no harm in reporting it, but seems pretty minor...

i've never noticed any quicktime issues (& have been using 'more space' on my macs since forever). what layout issue are you experiencing?
Then I guess `more space` isn't really running at native resolution but doubling and then downscaling.

Look at the picture in the post that I've linked, it's in the second quote
or you could have just answered. ? anyway, since i'm not running my macs in native resolution, i can't comment on this; but is it a 'universal issue'? i mean, is everyone experiencing this running native resolution, or is it just some people...???

Probably, need someone else to confirm, I think setting "Open in Low Resolution" would achieve equivalent result but not everyone has this setting

Anyone else having an issue with the Apple TV app where the video player windows crashes as soon as you hit the play button. Just started this morning for me on beta 8.

UPDATE: Was able to correct the issue by signing out and back into the Apple TV app.

I’ve got a problem with an office365 exchange calendar not syncing properly with the MacOS12 calendar app. It syncs with Fantastical, and with the calendar app on iOS15 on a phone and iPad. But only displays a handful of appointments. Have deleted accounts, cleared caches and so on; always syncs back to the same incomplete state.

Continuity camera and personal hotspot are not working anymore. Unlock with Apple Watch also not working reliably anymore.
Taking steps back. Beta 4 so far was the most stable release. I feel like we will have a crap RC and a disaster release once again...

Is AirPlaying to your Mac working for anyone?
Yes, I can AirPlay from my iPhone 6Plus (iOS 12.5.5) to my MacBook (macOS 12 beta 8).

Edit: Just realised there is a thread in this forum devoted to AirPlay. Have a read of that.

external monitor support is broken in B8. Mac detects the display (5K Ultrafine) and the camera, mic and USB C ports work fine just no display output.

Cheers. Turns out I had to allow Anyone on the same network in Sharing -> AirPlay Receiver. Weird that it just silently fails without it. Also don't remember these settings when I enabled it in the first beta?

since the last update Mullvad VPN is broken. It'll work for a while, but after an hour or so it seems like DNS just stops working. Tried turning off Private Relay, but no help.
Same problem. Didn't break at all until the last beta. Greeeat. Not sure Mullvad has a beta up yet to try. Please post if anyone finds one. [Update: Re-downloaded 2021.4 and reinstalled. Same issue. Sent a problem report.]

Thanks!

UltraMega Update: Heard back from Mullvad:

Hi,

We are aware of this problem with macOS Monterey beta, many users have reported it. For now you can try to use the WireGuard app instead:

https://mullvad.net/help/wireguard-macos-app/

Hope this helps.

Best regards


Will give it a try.

Update #99: It works as advertised using the Wireguard client! Back up. Mullvad is working on a fix.
Update #100: Mullvad released 2021.5 for this fix. Then Monterrey was released as 12.0.1. I'm now on 12.1. Not working. I will try to find time to see if I can grab logs as it doesn't throw any messages, it just never connects. At least they do get back to you when you contact them and they're working on it. Still on the Wireguard client with the Mullvad server list. Works well.

Thanks

Anyone else seeing the issue that clicking on a link that should open in a new tab just opens a new tab without opening the page? Is there sinds Beta 8 and still there in beta 12. I have disabled some options with private relay etc but it doesn't help.

One thing I've noticed since running the beta is that I no longer get a percentage in the drop down bluetooth menu when I charge my keyboard, mouse, or trackpad. It just shows kinda greyed out. Anyone else seeing this?
