Hmm, better but not quite complete. Upon first opening it is still missing some elements until the dialog is resized or closed/reopened.

Odd. High Sierra / Mojave difference?

Boost version is also different, but it's hard to imagine that affecting this....

Can someone else on Mojave try this and see if they have the colour swatches and colour controls missing like Michael?

[Jeff Young (jeyjey)]

@Michael, in the meantime I've pushed a shot-in-the-dark fix; could you try it out?

[Michael Kavanagh (michaelkavanagh)]

No luck unfortunately. There has been a similar problems with other panels in the Board Setup dialog for some time (see screenshots).

[Michael Kavanagh (michaelkavanagh)]

Hmm, the problem doesn't appear in the official 5.1.4 install from kicad-pcb.org, maybe its an issue with my build...
