[2.0.23] Machine GUIs opened in remote view are visually misaligned

Post by Solarflame »

Pretty much every machine GUI opened from the remote view has the "ghost cursor selection" header too low and misaligned while the bottom edge of the window is perfectly aligned:

Thanks for the report however these two panes do not have any relationship to each other and do not make any attempt to align to each others headers.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

I see, it would look a lot more coherent if it was aligned imo.

My assumption would be that the "ghost cursor selection" panel is aligned to some other GUI panel.
So one would have to evaluate all GUIs against each other to categorize them how they are aligned.
Then a decision could be made whether it's possible to do some adjusting.
IMHO, that sounds like a lot of effort for little gain.
