Hide/menu-bar issue with Transmission 1.10 on Leopard

[kine]

Hi, not sure if this qualifies as a bug or what, but i've been having an intermittent issue with Transmission 1.10 (5422) on Leopard (10.5.2). Well, two issues, actually. I searched Google and the forum but i'm not seeing anything, so sorry if this has already come up.

Anyway, issues:

1. Occasionally Transmission will stop responding to the 'Hide' command, via both Transmission > Hide Transmission and open-apple+H. Everything else works perfectly fine, uploading and downloading continues, inspectors work, the window responds to mouse clicks, &c., it just won't hide. I can minimise the Transmission window to the Dock, but that's it. I have to quit and restart in order to get Hide back. (Also, hiding works fine for all other applications whilst this is happening.)

2. Possibly related, but i've only experienced this once, just now, so maybe not. Basically i lost the menu bar for Transmission. I went to download a torrent file in Firefox, which naturally popped up the Transmission window, where i was able to select the downloading options and all that jazz. The download started, everything was working fine... but the menu bar didn't switch over to Transmission, it was still stuck on Firefox. In other words, even though i had the Transmission window active, my menu bar showed Firefox, File, Edit, View, History, &c. I minimised, hid/unhid, closed the window and re-opened it using the Dock icon, switched back and forth between applications, &c., it just wouldn't take over the menu bar no matter what i did. Whenever i switched back to the Transmission window, the menu bar would still be owned by whatever application had been active previously. (So, for example, if i switched to the Finder, and then back to Transmission, i would have the Finder menu bar.) Again, no other symptoms, everything else worked fine, it was just that one thing.

As far as i know Transmission hasn't ever crashed on me, so these aren't ever fatal errors, they're just UI glitches. Restarting always fixes it. Not a huge deal, but still annoying. Can't remember if this problem occurred before the last update (sorry), it's always been so random that i never really noticed. Also, Console doesn't show anything for Transmission, if that's of any use.

Has anyone else seen this? :/

Yes, I've seen this a few times too. Started happening somewhere around version 1.06. Not a major problem, and it may actually be a bug in OS X, since I recall it happening to Safari.

Both glitches still occur annoyingly regularly with 1.54 (8615) and OS X 10.4.11. Don't suppose they 're ever going to be fixed.

Apart from that, excellent stuff this.
cheers,
