Dynamic side buttons seem broken on Mac OSX with Java 7

[dieterdreist]

At least on MacOS the buttons (toolbar at the bottom of every docked window) don't work because they get hidden as soon as you move the mouse over.

Please supply more info, I don't even know what version of Java you're using, your OS version, if you're using Web Start, a jar, the Mac package for Java 6, the experimental package for Java 7 ?

As a general rule for all Mac-specific issues (I do not have any problem on Windows right now), you'll have to provide the maximum info you can if you want any chance to see your problem solved (no one of us uses a Mac, so these problems are very difficult to understand and solve).

I'm on latest, Mac OS-X 10.8, Java 7:

Thanks.
Does it happen only since you switched to Java 7 or since you use a new version of JOSM ?
I assume you're using dynamic buttons; does it work if you switch them off (set property dialog.dynamic.buttons to false) ?
Also you may want to update to Java 7u45. Support of Java 7 on Mac by Oracle is still quite new and full of bugs.

OK, it works before I add data (e.g startup, ctrl+n for new layer, now these buttons remain visible when I am over with the mouse). Now I add some geometry and they behave strangely: they are visible when the window is activated and I'm with the mouse in the window, but as soon as I move over the toolbar/buttons, they disappear (and reappear when I move back into the window not toolbar).

It also works with the window detached (as there is no hiding at all).

And it also "works" with dialog.dynamic.buttons=false (after restart), as this makes them permanent (works).

Not sure about Java7/6 and won't switch back for testing (is too complicated).

It works mostly with my current Java and version 6238, so my guess is that something was broken in the meantime (maybe the condition for hiding is inverted? Looks like).

[Don-vip]

Made further tests and there's no problem on Windows (tried both Java 6 and 7). Probably a Java bug, can you please try with 7u45 ? Thanks.

I confirm that with latest JOSM and 7u45 on Mac OS-X 10.9 it is still broken.

[Don-vip]

In 6752/josm:

fix #7633, see #9264 - fix dynamic side buttons broken in r6727 + many small enhancements

[Don-vip]

Can you check if it works better with JOSM r6752+ and Java 7u51 ?

[dieterdreist]

Yeah, seems fixed! Buttons behave like expected on Java7u45 and 6762!
Thank you very much, this was a huge annoyance.

sorry, this was too early, does still not work on 7u45, now I will update Java and tell you.

[dieterdreist]

sorry, not working on 7u51 and latest.

Blast from the past? This works absolutely fine for me on build 13265, Java version 1.8.0_161-b12,
