Newly created folder not automatically selected when creating a new filter
Last modified: 2009-09-21 10:39:34 UTC
Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what you are doing. Description of Problem: The Select folder window for creating filters should automatically show the new folder created in the view. It does select the newly created folder. But would be more intuitive and easy to use, if the user need not have to scroll to see which folder has been selected. Since the window has already selected the folder, its just a matter of setting the view [ to show the selected folder ] Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Right click on a mail and choose Create a new filter from mailing list. 2. Click on "click here to select a folder" tab 3. In the select folder window, click "new" 4. Create a new folder and say ok. Actual Results: The new folder gets selected by default, but the view in the select folder window, doesnot automatically gets scrolled to show the selected folder in the current view. The user needs to scroll to see which folder has been selected. Expected Results: The select folder window should have the selected folder displayed in the center of the folder list shown. How often does this happen? Everytime Additional Information: This may be a minor bug, and i am also not very sure, if this is the right component. Please re-assign this to the proper component and priority.
mailer, not shell
sounds easy doesn't it? Well we do all i can see possible for this, we set the selection and we set the curosr and we tell gtktreeview to show that row. only it doesn't always work. i can't see any way to fix this.
