1) Open "Views" Control Panel. 2) Select view font size; type 5 <return> 3) Click OK on the resulting alert 4) When the alert disappears, the number indicating the font size is garbage. Or, try this. Make sure your Finder Views is set to Geneva 9 pt. 1) Pick a random Finder window. 2) View by Small Icon. 3) Click in the zoom box to shrink the window to the smallest possible size to hold all the icons. Scroll bars should become all white. 4) Open "Views" 5) Change the font size to 6. 6) Change the font size back to 9. 7) Now view the window whose zoom box you clicked. The size is no longer correct, i.e, the scroll bars are reactivated. I can consistently reproduce both of these bugs.

I tried the two sequences on a IIfx 8/160 with 7.0 copied from a dealer and I didn't get the behavior you describe. In the first case, the size was back to the original value (9) after the alert. In the second case, after switching to size 6, the icons seemed to move up but this is probably because characters size 9 are taller than the small icons while 6 is not. But the scroll bars were not activated. I then switched back to size 9 and the window was back to its original status without the scroll bars activated.
