Yer welcome and also welcome back!

Yes, as far as I know, that's normal. I can't recall that anything changed that made it become any different, though they did add a higher quality fonts-option, but that doesn't seem to make a difference either.

The targeting thing is a bit different, and you'll know when you see it as long as it's enabled (you'll need to be far away enough from a target when targeting it with a spell or ability).
