How many tabs are you opening? Do you mean the close buttons?

This affects XP normal if you open enough tabs, the close buttons disappear to allow the remaining space to be used by the title text. I think this is very intentional.

yes, the tab close buttons...it seems as if the desktop 3d environment may be creating display bugs..........I would agree except I running Linux and had only 2 tabs open

Marking this resolved WFM because I don't think anything is still broken here. If someone can still reproduce this, it'd be good to know, in which case we can reopen.
