1. select a single message. the contents show in the preview window.
2. select additional messages by holding down CTRL and clicking on them with the mouse. the preview window correctly goes blank when multiple messages are selected.
3! release the CTRL key and click on the last message clicked on from step 2 (the one that should still have focus). now a single message is selected, but the contents are not shown in the preview window.

Confirming.

Setting probabledup keyword, as I am pretty sure this has been filed already. Just can't find it...
Comment 2 André Klapper 2006-04-05 12:05:34 UTC 
i can confirm this, however i think that this is a duplicate of a bug which was only partially fixed.

probably a gal bug.

proposed evo patch

for evolution;

It works better with this patch. I also added there a behavior that when the selected count get one, then the selected message is shown, even the cursor is somewhere else. If you do not like this, then I can remove it. As far as I tested it it works fine now. The problem was two different functions was going to decide what to show in different way.

Milan, the code seems fine, I haven't tested it, just test and commit it.

bug #540160 contains a patch where I reverted this one, because it caused troubles.
