%%%--- Operating System, Graphics card ---
Windows x64
(Display) HD4000
(GPGPU) 2 GTX 580

- Blender version with error, and version that worked ---

2.69 RC3 r60885, also today's BuildBot version r60951

No known working version, resizable lists are a new 2.69 feature

- Short description of error ---

While using Blender interface font sizes larger than DPI: 72, certain font settings generate or highlight tiny interface glitches (see image magnified view (arrows highlight areas)) on icons at the bottom of new resizable lists.

- Steps for others to reproduce the error (preferably based on attached .blend file) ---

Start 2.69 RC3, open user prefs, under System tab enter font size DPI: 86, close user prefs. Under Materials tab (on the right) look under resizable list new icons (see image).

Indecently, it seems DPI: 95 is required to highlight the issue in today's BuildBot version r60951. This test was performed with a fresh download, without previous user pref settings.

Certain DPI settings present the issue while others do not, could the problem be caused by unwanted pixels on the icons Alpha maps, the unwanted pixels are always present but normally hidden behind interface elements while using other DPI settings? If Alpha maps are to blame, knowing developers are busy, I can try and help by removing the unwanted pixels.

%%%This has nothing specific to the uiList, as you show it in your screencast it also affects other icons (like the X one), it"s likely an issue with our scaling code…%%%
