Hi,

Just 2 quick questions about Leopard:

1. Apple have dropped Brushed Metal in Leopard, so what will happen if I was to open an App with Brushed Metal in Leopard?

2. Will iLife '06 and iWork '06 work in Leopard?

Thanks.
 
I also still have iLife '06 as I felt no need to get iLife '08 just yet.

They should work together as iLife '08 is still very new, but I'm still curious if more of the knowledgeable members can chime in.

Brushed metal apps will not look brushed in Leopard

iLife and iWork 06 will work in Leopard 🙂

Do we know this for sure? i thought the interface graphics were optionally bundled inside the app? AFAIK apps can still look brushed metal, its just that apple has unified the software that comes with leopard.

I know that you could use safari as an example of an app thats brushed in tiger and not in Leopard but I'm pretty sure that Leopard Safari is either a unique build or it detects Leopard. Otherwise we would see webclips in Tigers Safari.

Too late now, but UNO gets rid of brushed metal in Tiger, and its free!

BTW, for those who use iLife 06, IMO 08 is a great upgrade 🙂

I had considered "UNO" but I didn't like the idea that it was messing around with system and Apps main files.
