Fix for problem with shape selector. It now works correctly after choosing a file to use as the base shape.

Ctrl-X to erase results in not being able to create a new sculpt
Intermittently, if I create a sculptie and then decide to delete it and create a new one, the space bar does not bring up the options as usual and must quit the program to be able to do so again.
Input window
I can't think of anyway that Primstar could cause this. Are you aware of the input focus window being the one the mouse is over? So space bar over 3D view does what you expect, space bar over buttons window does nothing.
Blackened input boxes on creation menu
Hi, Domino. I also noticed something else. Sometimes the input boxes are black. At first, I thought it had no numbers, but when I dragged my mouse over the input box, I saw there was a number in it.
Graphics driver?
I had a similar problem on Ubuntu which went away by itself after some package updates - so I'm assuming it's a system problem rather anything else causing this. It's also been reported on a Windows system. My best guess on this is that it's a graphics driver problem, but when it fixed itself on my system, my ATI Radeon Mobility x1300 wasn't one of the drivers updated. So it's a strange one, I don't know where to start other than checking whether all the systems that have shown this problem have ATI graphic cards. This could eliminate the graphics system or put it more firmly in the frame as the source of the problem.
Window contents disappear on cancellation of file search
I was trying out the new Primstar 9.12 and went to create a sculpt mesh from Add Mesh. When the window came up, I did not realize there was a drop down for type and clicked on the folder icon by mistake (I'm on Mac and sometimes some of the more PC type things throw me for a loop.). I cancelled out of the search and the menu window for adding the sculpt mesh was vacant. When I clicked on it, the sculpt type drop-down reappeared. Clicking around the menu window brought back most of the elements. So I thought I had best report it.
Mac testers
Can anyone else with a Mac confirm whether they get this problem or not? It would be useful to know if it's a general problem with any Mac or something specific to Ele's system. Thanks!
