Some remaining upper/lower case mistakes in menus and tools
Problem fixed in 22.90b17

In Crop tool there is a strange blinking crosshatch cursor appears during movement between normal rotate cursor and hand grab cursor
Problem fixed in 22.90b17

Left and Right handles in Gradient, Levels as well as Curves points seems like located at slightly different distance from left and right edges. This produce not too accurate look, especially when triangles combined with curves points
Problem fixed in 22.90b17

Size of triangle handles now affected by global size of handles in preferences. In larger sizes they start to look too huge and became cropped by window frame.
Problem fixed in 22.90b17

Curve created with "Vector Drawing" tool apply "Points Symmetric" uses Symmetric only for first and last point instead of all points.
Problem fixed in 22.90b17

Small visual artifact in Painting Matrix brush preview When hardness is set somewhere between 80-100
Problem fixed in 22.90b17

Vertical line border from the right side is missing in Painting Matrix panel
Problem fixed in 22.90b17

"Stamp - Create from Lasso" saves stamps to PLD files only as 8 bit
Problem fixed in 22.90b17

Program crash if turn on "Show Mask" and "Edit Mask" and start to draw on raster layer with "Vector Lasso" tool
Problem fixed in 22.90b17

If convert JPEGs to 32 bit and apply Focus Stacking - it generates colored pattern instead of stacked image.
Problem fixed in 22.90b17

"Use System Cursors" toggle in Preferences is missing on macOS
Problem fixed in 22.90b17

Is it possible to provide separate icon resource for Levels Options toggle? Currently Levels use global "10002" icon source and due difference in layout size it looks way smaller than same icon in Menu. Just looks not too pretty.

Is it possible to provide separate icon resource for tiny Layer Style icon in Layer List? Currently it use global "12374" Layer Style icon source and due difference in layout size in Layer List it looks smaller than other tiny icons.

This Clipping Soft Edge always generated in 8 bit when applied to 16 or 32 bit images. (Probably same problem as with Brushes, Layer Styles, Mesh Gradient and Light effects that are 8 bit only, even if used in 16 or 32 bit document or layer)

WOW! Seems themmed sliders on macOS version are under development. Very interesting...

[shijan]

Seems i got some new ideas for better sliders. Here is some background:
Current slider handles filled with black color works ok, but feels a little bit depressive and in some abstract way - they don't feel like buttons and don't fit to native OS elements look. They also feels not too precise and "consumer" due lack of center point mark.

So here are some sketch ideas:
- Slider ruler line Outline Inside Black: 0%, Opacity: 30% for more seamless mix into colored background.
- White area of handle makes it look more like button.
- Center dot provides more precise look and same time visually button don't feels too "heavy".
- Round handle outline may use same color as outline in dropboxes. Or probably a little bit darker to compensate contrast loss in rounded single pixel outlines compare to straight lines.
- Less contrast Slider ruler line background for less visual noise and more seamless integration into window background.

Guess this also may need some experiments with sizes proportions.

Here is sketch Version 3.
Round handle Outline Outside Black: 0%, Opacity: 35% (For seamless integration into window background)
Colored slider ruler Outline Inside Black: 0%, Opacity: 30% (same as i used for colored labels icons in my icons set)

Normal (non-colored) slider ruler Background Black: 0%, Opacity: 10% (For seamless integration into window background)
Normal (non-colored) slider ruler Outline Inside Black: 0%, Opacity: 30%.

Or here is how it may look with same colors and outlines settings but attempted to mimic normal macOS system sliders look (probably less friendly to sliders with colored background):
