A600GS Applications Pre-Installed

It's not all about games.... there is a serious side to the A600GS

Like the clean look it provides. It would be awesome if you and apollo-computer helped Wanderer to feel a fully fledged desktop interface!

Strangely Wanderer has still a lot of visual problems and it looks like nobody really cares or knows how to fix them (I would not know, were to begin either ...)



Just some pixels on the wrong place ... but they disturb the whole view for me.
And the text in the window-bar is just one pixel too low and so the last line gets cut

I also don't like redundancy. If there is nothing to scroll, dont show scrollbars!
That's just visual noise.

I fixed it up - crudely:

It might be due emulation scaling, on LCD if you have WinUAE display to other ratio then integer scale, things like this occur, the problems should be the same on pi UAE.
About you solution, if you have a windows with multiple icons depending on windows' size you can have multiple states, and those bars would pop in and out.

This is an old problem with the rendering of Wanderer and not a scaling artifact and I pointed it out years ago - but very little has changed since.

Exactly.
Intuition has to check anyways, if the contents fits in the window to calculate the scrollbar ...

Still my favorite way to go for a "fully fledged desktop interface" on something like the Apollo/Vampire would be looking like that:
