Re: The Bat! 5.0.8.1 (BETA)
Rick: copy a few messages to a temporary folder. Thread them. Now try to break the thread and watch what happens to the lower message - IT DISAPPEARS How do you break the thread? I can see messages disappear only if I shift-drag a message on itself (it doesn't even have to be threaded, it happens with a single message too). To unthread a message or a subthread, I shift-drag the message down below the last message of the list, on the empty space of the message list pane. It un-threads correctly. -- Luca - e-mail: p.stevens at linuxfan.it Current beta is 5.0.8.1 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Shift dragging to the left and off the messages SHOULD break the threading. Instead of now having 2 unthreaded messages, one of them vanishes -- Rick I'm having another It seemed like a good idea at the time moment v5.0.8.1 (BETA) on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 3 Current beta is 5.0.8.1 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Instead of now having 2 unthreaded messages, one of them vanishes Ok, I realize now the full picture: In v.4.x: drag - re-thread (and you can't drop a message on itself). shift+drag - un-thread (no matter where you drop the message). In v.5.0.8.1: drag - doesn't work. shift+drag - drop on a different message - re-thread - drop down below, on the empty space - un-thread - drop on the same message - disintegrator ray Former behaviour is to be restored, I think. Even if the disintegrator bug were corrected, it's uneasy to unthread a message when the empty space is deep down at the end of a long message list. -- Luca - e-mail: p.stevens at linuxfan.it Current beta is 5.0.8.1 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

You are correct - if you drag them up or down they WILL unthread. If you drag it to the left or toward the tree and it is still near the message when you let go, it will destroy the message. You USED to be able to drag it to the left and have it unthread -- Rick A great many people think they are thinking when they are really rearranging their prejudices. - William James v5.0.8.1 (BETA) on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 3 Current beta is 5.0.8.1 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
