I am guessing that the auto fade option for the Instant Details window is an OSX feature...am I right about that? The option is greyed out in my Accordance (8.4) which I run with BasiliskII. As far as I know, this is the only feature besides the 3d map graqphics that does not work in emulation.

From: Accordance Help > Miscellaneous > Differences from OS X

The 68K Classic version of Accordance 8 that runs on earlier systems (7 – 9) including the PC Emulator has the following differences from the OS X application:

• Some buttons look very different.All Preferences are shared and stored in the Accordance folder.
• The Quit item is in the File menu not the Application menu.
• The Preferences item is in the Edit menu not the Application menu.
• Show All Windows is active only when windows are hidden.
• Command-H for Hide Accordance and Command-M for Minimize Window do not work.
• Text smoothing cannot be set within Accordance, but only in the Appearance Control Panel. (Text smoothing makes the Hebrew font very ragged on the screen.)
• Some font sizes have no bit maps so will appear very ragged (particularly 9, 11, 16, and 21).
• Page Setup settings are saved with a saved window.
• The two-button mouse is only supported within Accordance, and control-click performs the same actions as a right-click.
• Key number highlighting uses black color.

These features are not supported:

• 3D maps
• Spell checking of Edit windows
• Auto fade of Instant Details
• International localization
• Check for Updates
• Features requiring the Services.
