[Chandler-dev] RenameAndNewEvent fails on Mac

[Philippe Bossut]

Hi,

I arrived at the same conclusion on my side. I checked a fix in r14940. 
Note that recTestNewEvent had the same problem.

Now, the real issue is that the script recording is sensitive to 
rendering condition which means my tweaks (on Mac) do not work on Linux: 
this is because the position of the divider between mini cal and 
collections depends on the font size used for the various text (in the 
day preview and the minical) and that is not consistent from a platform 
to the next. This also really means that a functional test framework 
based on the capture of mouse coordinates can't  work crossplatform.

How do we solve that?
