Hi Hans
I noticed a significant difference between Pd-extended-0.43 and Pd-vanilla-0.43 appearance. Symbol- and Numberboxes are 2 px higher in Extended than in Vanilla. This is especially problematic in cases where a GOP-patch in Vanilla was created so that the number/symbol box perfectly fits in. The same GOP-abstraction in Pd-extended does not show the number/symbol box at all, because it is overlapping the GOP area of the abstraction.
I also noticed that Pd-extended-0.43 on OS X does not use anti-aliased fonts, although it is (I think) using Tcl/Tk 8.5, while Pd-vanilla-0.43 does use anti-aliased fonts.
On Ubuntu both, Pd-extended and Pd-vanilla 0.43, do use anti-aliased fonts.
