Here is a strange one. Sometimes the mouse picks up a picture title from a Firefox web page underneath the LxBeams window. Have not yet been able to reproduce the conditions precisely but it is very odd when a yellow picture title box pops up while I am editing a drawing.

That is very strange. I'm going to guess that is a bug in Snow Leopard. I tried to reproduce it. But, I can't get Firefox to display the alt tags (yellow boxes) unless its window is activated.
I'll look around online to see if I can find any reports of similar behavior.
Apple changed some things in Snow Leopard behind the scenes. Even the programmer documentation of the changes does not capture them all. Specifically two that are not contained in the 10.6 changes are the issues mentioned in the recent thread--which had to be discovered by detective work. (The second behavior is actually explained in an obscure place. But there's no mention of why...)
