I also have a problem. I use PgDn and PgUp in the preview pane and TB
scrolls _2_ pages, one on mouse-down, one on mouse-up.

Definitely a bug. Introduced in 2.10 or 2.10.1

Strange preview pane behavior

2004-04-20 Thread Terry
Hi all,

Upgraded to 2.10 the other day and have noticed some different
behaviour while scrolling through long messages in the preview pane.

I can move the mouse over the folders pane, message list pane or
preview pane without the necessity of physically selecting any of the
panes. The focus for scrolling works perfectly. There's no need to
select the window by clicking it, selecting a message or a folder
prior to scrolling.

That's the same as the previous version. Here is where the behaviour
has changed.

In all other versions (at least the ones I've had), I could scroll
through a long message without having it physically selected (i.e.
clicking inside of it first). If I came across a link I wanted to open
or some text I wanted to select, I just pointed and clicked. Worked
great.

That doesn't work anymore. I can still scroll without physically
selecting the message. But if I attempt to click a link or select some
text, the message in that window moves back up to the beginning of the
message and text is selected from the point where I tried to click in
the message back up to the bottom line that's now displayed in the
preview pane. For example, if 10 lines display at a time in the
preview pane and I scroll down a few screens and then try to click on
a link that is on line 40, the message scrolls itself back up so the
first 10 lines are displayed again and the lines from 10 to 40 are
selected.

If I physically select the preview pane by clicking inside of it prior
to scrolling, I can then select text or click a link as normal.

Is anyone else experiencing this?  Am I missing some setting somewhere
that changed when I upgraded?

Terry

I'm not seeing that behavior, but I'm seeing something that's probably
related. When I select a message, scroll down (either in the preview
pain or with the message open in its own windows), switch to
another program, and then return to TB, the message is back at the
beginning.

This is particularly annoying when I'm updating a website (15-20
changes) based on information in a long message. The solution is to
copy the message and paste it in to UltraEdit, but this is an needless
extra step.

Hi Terry,

[Selecting text / clicking links in the preview pane when it hasn't
been selected previously]

T Is anyone else experiencing this?  Am I missing some setting somewhere
T that changed when I upgraded?

I can't help you. But I can say that I can't confirm your observation.
To make sure I understood you right: Without selecting the preview
pane I scrolled a long message down to previously hidden lines (with
the mouse scroll wheel). I then attempted to select a couple of lines of
text. I also tried clicking a link down there and repeated this
experiment on several long messages that were too long to display in
their entirity in the preview pane.

The result is not what you describe, but rather what you'd expect: the
text gets selected / link followed without any movement of the cursor
position in the preview pane.

I am sorry for not being more helpful here, but for what it's worth: I
can't reproduce that behaviour either. What about the software you use
to control mouse / keyboard ? [ie. the driver]. Or what about the
software for your graphics card ? I've noticed that the Nvidia drivers
have some options that assert some control over windows .. that's what
I use. Didn't cause problems though. Just guessing.

Yes! I thought somehow a template was messed up, but had no time to look
at it.

I'm using a Logitech trackball on a Toshiba Satellite laptop if that helps.

I'm having the same problem (I also have an MX500)  I have found that
it only occurs the first time that I click within the preview pane.
After that everything works as it should. When I change to a different
message in the same folder (or a different one) the problem happens
again the first time I click somewhere in the preview.

Thanks to everyone who answered.  I'm glad it wasn't just me losing my
mind.  :)

I'd be happy to file a bug report *however* the Ritlabs site hates me.
I've tried numerous times to log in for several days now and I can't
get anywhere. Maybe someone else will have better luck than I am
having.
