Hi, are you using native window decorations? The eye icon is displayed in Komodo's titlebar in focus mode, but you wouldn't see this if you are using native window decorations.

No, but check out my screenshots below:

Hi, please use the Github interface to attach screenshots instead of e-mail. Github tends to mangle e-mail responses, and I cannot see any images.

This is only an issue on OSX. It works fine on Windows and I'm certain it's fine on Linux. We just need a "if OSX" in the tutorial.

Not a bug in the tutorial, OSX should still show these buttons. The bug here is that the smaller titlebar on OSX doesn't appear to show the buttons we want.

"Only an issue in OSX" ???

Do you know how many "issues in OSX" of one kind or another I have encountered by just trial testing Komodo IDE? You don't? Well, check my listing of issues I reported just a few months ago for v.10.

I am spending time and energy reporting bugs and weird behaviour as I am still hoping that one of these days Komodo IDE will get to point where I can feel confident that I am not throwing my money out the window when/if I decide to buy it. As far as I am concerned you are not there yet. So try to be as nice as possible when people are reporting possible bugs, and don't forget that you are getting very valuable information for free.

@ffurger please don't read negatively into my comment. I said it is only an issue on OSX, as in it can only be reproduced on OSX so the fix can focus on one of the 3 platforms we support. The fix will address the OSX build and NOT the Linux or Windows build. Your reports are much appreciated.
