I’ve noticed when anti-aliasing is turned on for a dropdown component that when the dropdown is not selected, it looks just fine. However, when the dropdown is selected, the anti-aliasing does not seem to be turned on. This is version 7.9.7. Is this the expected behavior or am I missing something?

Confirmed. I never noticed it before, but mine does the same thing. Good catch!
