White Triangles in Tiger

Has anyone else noticed white triangles under closed applications in the dock in Tiger? I notice it in Safari and Mail.app. The active apps have the standard black triangles, but closed applications sometimes have a white triangle underneath them.
If I resize the dock slightly, they will go away. Initially I thought I had burned in my screen, but then it went away. Never had this issue with Panther.

 

Nope, just 10.4.2. It doesn't seem to make any difference, but is just one of the things that has gone funky on my G5 since upgrading to Tiger. I also get "recovered files" in my trash at every reboot. Dn't know what that's about. Also Mail.app will no longer send to smtp.mail.mac.

Tiger's a bit of a bear on my mac.

Thanks all! And watch those triangles!

 

It was an upgrade (oh yeah) and I know I should try a new account, just haven't gotten around to it. Just found out about the mail thing, and I'm pretty lazy today.

Thanks Duff-Man (oh yeah)

 

Here's a shot-


Spiffy!

 

It's the "Wave" desktop pattern that comes with Tiger. I have no haxies on this machine. I don't like running any extra theme managers or anything that takes up CPU cycles, RAM etc...

I think my dock looks pretty flat. ??

Here's a whole screen shot-

 

Desktop Image

O.K. this is weird. I changed my desktop picture, it's now "Sea Mist" and the white triangles disappear. Switching back to "Wave" brings them back! It appears to be an issue with the white background on at least that background. Give it a try- set your desktop to "Wave" and see if white triangles show up in the left-hand side of your dock, in front of the white section of the background.

 

You're right! I do now remember using Onyx or Cocktail, or something to turn on Dock Shadow. I didn't see any difference and forgot about it. I'll just turn that right off.

Thanks a bunch!

 

Mail.app

I've got Mail.app working again! Man, this has been a productive weekend!
