I'm happy that doubleclicking an entry now brings up a dialog for editing the addressbook entry; this seems more logical than starting a new message. However, as most of the columns of the addressbook are implemented as in-place-editing fields, doubleclicking an address-entry has sort of a triple effect in some cases: it launches the entry editing dialog, switches the field that you happened to click on into edit-mode and if there is more than one word in the field, selects the one you doubleclicked on. In my opinion, the doubleclick should only result in the entry editing dialog. Edit mode should only be effected if the the two clicks were done slowly. Doubleclicking the only item in the row that doesn't seem to be 'editable', the icon indicating male/female/unknown, is no solution as that fails to select the doubleclicked address entry before opening the entry editing dialog and instead opens some other address that happened to be selected at the time. Also, upon returning from the entry editing dialog, the addressbook seems to be in 'drag-drop' mode of the address you just edited, without a mousekey being depressed. Actually, some things that seem to have gotten lost somewhere in previous betas appear to have been re-enabled. In beta/25 the yellow note with additional information about an address entry didn't appear when hovering an entry, which is now corrected. Also, in beta/25 I was no longer able to drag/drop addressbook entries around, which appears to be fixed now as well as the ability to use the Del-key to remove entries. With regards to addressbook behaviour, the following wishes remain: * Ability to separately add first, last and middle names as columns in addition to 'Name' * After editing an entry it should automatically sort into place, now that doesn't always happen. * If an addressbook group is selected on the left, an address is edited whereby the group list is changed so the entry is no longer a member of the selected group, it should be removed from the list immediately instead of after selecting another group (or the addressbook as a whole) and then the group in question again. * Dragging a user to a group that doesn't have 'hide users unless selected' set shouldn't result in the address being temporarily removed from the main list. -- Greetings, Maurice Using The Bat! v2.03 Beta/28 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 2.03 Beta/28 | "Using TBBETA" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
