Hi,

The checkbox in Lazarus 2.0.6 is almost unusable in at least 2 cases:
- Object inspector.
On average, I must click 3 to 5 times to get the result I need.
- in the online package manager

See attached screenshots.

In both cases the checkbox disappears in the row where the mouse cursor is located. Kind of difficult to check something then. Clicking is also a haphazard experience.

This is a stock Lazarus 2.0.6.
Am I the only one experiencing this ?
has this been reported yet ?
if not:
should I report it so it can please be included in 2.0.8 (if it is not too late yet) ?

Michael.

As I said, a stock Lazarus 2.0.6 install. From the about dialog, it seems to be using carbon.

It does worth bug reporting.
With macOS 10.16, the installer (2.0.8) might need to include both 32-bit carbon and 64-bit cocoa builds or have two separate installers.

thanks,
Dmitry
