Maybe this is intentional, but when I noticed it I thought my LCD was leaking. Maybe it's just a rather subtle UI depth-cue.

In the bottom right you notice some white streaks.

I'm having a hard time reproducing this. Can you tell me a bit about how your running tf2? What resolution, full screen or not, what your video card is set to, window manager you are using, etc. Also any other screen settings your using (mat_viewportscaling, etc)

Hi Matthew,

OS: Ubuntu 12.10 64-bit
Resolution: 1680 x 1050
Full Screen: yes
Video card: ATI FirePro M7820
Window manager: Unity/compiz with lightdm

Video driver: latest ATI fglrx (12.11 beta Catalyst) from ATI website

Don't know what other screen settings are relevant at the moment, attached
is a screenshot I took
using Steam's own screenshot function (minutes ago). I did not edit it in
any way, if you take an image editor (GIMP/Photoshop) and scroll down
vertically from the Mecha's knee. You should see the distortion there at
the bottom.

Thanks that was the info I needed. Basically it's a 1 pixel rounding problem when the UI is scaled to a 1680x1050 screen. It actually happens on all operating systems (if you make the window 1680x1050). Fixing it is slightly harder though, we may just punt it.

Changing the rounding on how TF scales VGUI dialogs is a can of worms we really can't get into. We're going to live with this one for now.
