Then why is that bug still present?This report was read, tested, and confirmed within days of submission.

How many lines of C++ interfacing with three radically different underlying OS APIs did you write to fix that?A customer of mine sent me a bug report re my 'Devawriter Pro', and I was at that time working on what I considered a significant upgrade of the thing.
My reaction was to shelve my upgrade work and go back to the source code and winkle around until I had sorted out the problem that the customer had found. When I had found the bug, I worked flat-out to sort it out, something I was lucky enough to do inwith a sennicht, and then released that bug-fix version before I could even consider returning to my "next big thing work" [Implementation of Grantha script].
LC's change logs also evidence much work, which in my circles as well is called "putting the customer first".In the circles I move in this is called "putting the customer first".

I’m creating a script widget that produces a login form as I pretty use such in all my apps. Because I want to give myself (and whoever else may use this) some flexibility, I have various options for the elements. For the login button, this can be roundRect but if changing it to a rectangle L produces unequal line thicknesses for bottom/right hiders and generally is more painful as you need to set topLeft and bottomRight border settings.
