Several dialogue windows/sheets have the last line of the header cut off, this is only visible if the line contains letters with descending tail (like p, q, y, etc.)

See attached screenshots for examples.

Reproducible: Always

Pay attention to the word "open" in the header.

We used to have a bug about the bottom of the text in sheets being cut off, but I can't find it now.  Chris, do you remember that one?  

I'd like to make sure this is not that one before confirming (since Markus is right; this is definitely happening, on 10.3 and 10.5).
I think that one -- which I also can't find -- was about only the last n line(s) of text being cut off, not a line-height problem. This looks like the line height is too short, rather than being confined to the last line of text in the dialog.

Found it: bug 327954, and my comment 7 suggests that maybe these are the same issue. The difference, though, is that the Javascript sheets are generated in code, whereas the alert sheets this bug is concerned with are standard Cocoa alerts that we don't (AFAIK) have much control over. It might be an OS issue.

No, they are windows that we construct manually in code. In addition to tweaking the sizing for 10.3/10.4, we should look into creating a 10.5+ codepath for those alerts that uses NSAlert with either an accessoryView or a suppressionButton (depending on the need), and deprecate the entire manual codepath.

Confirming since the other issue is with the explanatory text size, rather than the header, which while related is probably not the same code.

This bug has been buried in the graveyard and has not been updated in over 5 years. It is probably safe to assume that it will never be fixed, so resolving as WONTFIX.
