Local Authority problem

Hi there,
i've been playing TTD for many years and decided to download the Open TTD.
Everything works fine, except i cannot click with my mouse on a city's name.
This means i cannot open the local authority window and cannot bribe or anything....planting a lot of trees is quite boring, so i hope someone can help me. If you have any suggestions to the problem, please let me know. Also if there's a shortkey for this window it would be most helpful.
Thnx

How can't you click on the name? Because I always can...
One possibility is that you haven't got (or have got) set the city names selected in the transparency options..Although then you shouldn't see the city names at all...

So clicking on everything else works? How odd... Please could you add a savegame as an attachment so we can have a look? Also, does this happen in every new game, or only some of them, or only with particular savegames?

Wouldn't load on 0.5.3 though.

I think i've solved the problem:
when i zoom out, it is possible to click on the citynames. Well at least i can expand the cities a bit this way!
Thnx for all the help, although its still a strange bug.
PS: im running the latest version on a mac os X 10.3.9

I can think of at least 3 "latest" versions: The current trunk revision, the current nightly build, 0.5.3, 0.6.0. Which one are you using?

...and when was even 0.5.2 released?? in spring? even earlier??
Kinda funny seeing net even 0.5.1 but a RC for it to be thought as latest
Oh my,oh my..I just got a good portion of laugh
Though these kind of things happen sometimes
So don't you even think of taking any offence from this
and yes, there are atleast three latest (not to count ChrisIn and others) 0.5.3, 0.6.0-beta1 and latest nightly..
