It's not just the El Capitan beta, it's the 10.11.0 GA release too. Slight difference in the missing elements, however - it seems limited to progress bar and volume slider here.

I am NOT having this issue on OS X El Capitain 10.11

Please note that Hermes is essentially an abandoned project — if anyone wants to work on fixing this, great, but neither Alex, Winston nor I are actively working on it nor do any of us have any plans to do so in the near future. (For what it's worth, I do not see this on my 10.11 Mac.)

[sirg3]

I can reproduce this and, in the few minutes I had available, narrowed it down to the CIFilters being added to the NSSliders.

[nriley]

Looks like Apple (re)introduced some bugs in layer-backed/hosted views (can never remember which is which). Sigh. That makes a lot of sense.

[cpowell]

I wonder if (and how) it might be related to the nVidia drivers. I switched to the stock OS X driver (away from the nVidia web driver) and now I have my Hermes UI back.

[sirg3]

Sounds plausible. I'm also running the web drivers, though I can't easily switch back to the stock drivers to test the theory.

I've been using Hermes on OS X 10.11 developer beta 1 through 10.11.2 Beta 3 and have not run into any of these issues, for what it's worth.

[nriley]

I haven't seen this in ages, so I think it's probably not a Hermes bug and fixed. Please feel free to comment if it's still happening for you.
