Preview panel with a message flashes unnecessary
Last modified: 2015-04-16 08:29:45 UTC
I noticed that preview panel with a message flashes, when selecting a message in a message list. It's sometimes not viewable, because of small message, but one may notice with calendar invitations, while having some remote calendars without saved password. I'm always asked twice to enter password for a calendar (I always cancel the password request). I noticed it once more, when having a MAPI account enabled. I selected a message, while it was checking for new mails, then I selected some text in the preview, while I saw the progress moving in the status bar. When it finished its work, and the status bar got empty finally, the selection from the message disappeared, and the preview panel flashed very quickly. Just another reproducer for the same thing, I believe.
Seems fine now (git master, before 3.17.1 release). With added debug prints into web_view_load_string() and web_view_load_uri(), each is called only once.
