TOPIC

    If menus enter the space of the menu bar clock, the clock appears in the foreground, obscuring the menus.


DISCUSSION

    Symptom

    The menu bar clock is drawn over a menu.

    Products affected
    • Mac OS X 10.0

    Solution

    The menu bar clock can obscure menus of an application if the application places enough menus in the menu bar to extend into the clock's space. The lower your display resolution, the greater the possibility that this will occur. To address this, you may either increase display resolution or turn off the menu bar clock. Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu to perform either of these tasks.
