Clear type bug

Hey guys,

Enable clear type
Open up class browser/system browser
Move mouse over the mode presenter
More specifically, mouse over either instance or class radio buttons
As you move the mouse over them, they get more bold.

Odd!

Here's a screen shot after mousing over the instance radio button a few
times:

Do they stay that way, or do they return to normal when you mouse over
something else?  If the latter, my hunch is that it's by design, with
clear type simply rendering the mouse over effects in a more obvious way
than the normal anti-aliasing.

Have a good one,

Bill

They stay that way, however;

If I hit the alt key (And at the same time have the Windows XP option of
"Hide underlined letters for keyboard navigation until I press the Alt key"
enabled), then the first time I hit the alt key it forces the control to
redraw itself, and the radio button text goes back to normal. however after
the initial keypress, it never resets itself

I have ClearType on and the Alt-key option enabled.
My text does not change at all when hovering. Only the inside of the
buttons fill with a color.
Hitting the Alt key causes the underlines to stay there forever.
Inside an IdeaSpace, the alt affects all tabs in the space. Opening a
new browser in the space clears the underline in all items in the space.
The highlight may be a video driver issue? I'm using an ATI X800XT with
latest drivers. Using the default XP theme.
