I keep mis-clicking the red "close" button.

[Arganos0]

Guys,

I don't know if any of you have this problem, but often when I try to close an app, and I click the red button in the upper left corner of the screen, i somehow click the minimize button, causing the screen to go into the lower right corner of my screen (dock is on the right side) Is there any way to move the three buttons further away from each other or something else, like increasing sensitivity, whatever? Because it's annoying as hell. This is one of my only problems with leopard, that I keep hitting the yellow button.

Thanks

You can't move them. You just need to be more accurate with your mouse clicks. Or use Command-M to minimize, Command-W to close.

maybe you should use the keyboard shortcut to close windows : cmd-w

Use command W or the menu button. I've never heard of this complaint before...!!!

I guess you might have to try getting used to keyboard shortcuts. I just had a quick look under Universal Access in the system prefs, afraid theres not much there to really help you. Only thing I can kinda think of is zooming in, but that just wouldn't be practical most of the time.

Themes often rearrange/resize the buttons, but the trend is to make them smaller rather than larger. Anyway, from the sound of it, theming for Leopard is tough going.

Yea, it's easy to modify small, certain aspects of Leopard; such as scrollbars, icons, dock appearance. It's very hard to mod the entire UI of Leopard. I suggest to the OP, to use keyboard shortcuts or set the mouse tracking rate a little slower.

Shortcuts are the easiest, I usually use Command W and Command Q, thanks for telling us about Command M ggstudios. Is there a way to bring it back up? That would be great, it would let you get around the mac so much faster
