GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 118930
Scores sometimes don't show.
Last modified: 2006-06-18 05:03:44 UTC
If I have a thread whose first article is scored, then if the thread is expanded, the score shows. If the thread is collapsed, it is not shown. I think this started happening around the change that made scores appear against collapsed threads.
Created attachment 18846 [details] Display - Collapsed.
Created attachment 18847 [details] Display - expanded
More information: I'm able to duplicate this by creating a score and hitting `close and rescore'. If I exit the group and re-enter it, the top and nested scores are shown appropriately. Same behavior if the top and nested scores are 100, 200 respectively.
Fixed in CVS: http://cvs.gnome.org/bonsai/cvsview2.cgi?diff_mode=context&whitespace_mode=show&subdir=pan/pan&command=DIFF_FRAMESET&file=articlelist.c&rev1=1.655&rev2=1.656&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=1.206&rev2=1.207&root=/cvs/gnome
It works now for the score of +100, but still doesn't work for the -100 score case. Also, what happens if a thread has articles scored both negative and positive??
I don't understand the question. The premise is that users want to read high-scoring articles. So Pan's trying to make it easier to find high-scoring articles even when they're hidden in collapsed threads. This is why Pan shows the subthreads' high score when the subthread is collapsed. So, if a top article has a score -100 and its reply has a score of 0, then it's intentional a zero score appear in the top article when its replies are hidden from a collapsed subthread.
I had thought of it that an article with zero score is a no-op so any other score would show through. Doesn't really matter. Dave
