Hello!

OS X v. 7.4.23 - project URL field in "Add project" is too small to be readable. See the attach (problem field marked with blue)

Thank you for reporting this. It will be fixed in the next build.

I have a similar minor visual anomaly, On Boinc 7.4.22 x64 on Windows,
On the Bottom line of the Event Log, all the characters with tails descend below the Bottom Border,
These range form the bottom portion of the square brackets [] to y, p, q and g

This is probably caused by the top entry in the event log not being exactly aligned with the top of the scrolling window. As you gradually enlarge the event log dialog (vertically), blank space slowly grows at the bottom until there's enough room for another complete line to be displayed. But because the top line is a little too low, the bottom line overlaps the bottom margin, but only while there's exactly enough space to display an integer number of lines.

Thanks, that is it, I have my Event Log expanded to fill the screen, But not maximised, changing the size of the Event Log screen makes the characters fully visible.

Exactly the same behaviour - wasting space by mis-aligning the topmost row - can be seen in the task list in the main BOINC Manager screen.
