Filters behaving oddly in 0.14.0.93
Last modified: 2006-06-18 05:03:32 UTC
The "simplified" filters seem to be bahaving oddly in 0.14.0.93. For newsgroups that already existed, if none of the filter options are ticked (Match New, Cached, Text, Binary, Mine) then the filter operates as the old "Match New AND Unread". Once you have ticked any of them (or pressed any of the toolbar buttons) there is no way to get back to this state because "Match Unread" is not an option and if none are ticked it shows all the articles. For newsgroups that you subscribe to or d/l for the first time in .93, then there is no way at all to get the "Match New AND Unread". Also, if you go to an "old style" newsgroup (i.e. one that you haven't messed up yet!) and press "Show only New" from the toolbar, then go to any other newsgroup, then it shows all the articles in that group as if you had pressed the button twice in that group!
judging from pan-users and private mail, clearly you're not alone in wanting to distinguish between new, unread, and read. :) Fixed in CVS: http://cvs.gnome.org/bonsai/cvsview2.cgi?diff_mode=context&whitespace_mode=show&subdir=pan/pan&command=DIFF_FRAMESET&file=gui.c&rev1=1.591&rev2=1.592&root=/cvs/gnome http://cvs.gnome.org/bonsai/cvsview2.cgi?diff_mode=context&whitespace_mode=show&subdir=pan/pan&command=DIFF_FRAMESET&file=filter-mediator.h&rev1=1.6&rev2=1.7&root=/cvs/gnome http://cvs.gnome.org/bonsai/cvsview2.cgi?diff_mode=context&whitespace_mode=show&subdir=pan/pan&command=DIFF_FRAMESET&file=filter-mediator.c&rev1=1.15&rev2=1.16&root=/cvs/gnome http://cvs.gnome.org/bonsai/cvsview2.cgi?diff_mode=context&whitespace_mode=show&subdir=pan&command=DIFF_FRAMESET&file=ANNOUNCE.html&rev1=1.202&rev2=1.203&root=/cvs/gnome
Yep, we're up and running again - Thanks.

Chris: okay, so I was very wrong. :)
