Description David Nichols 2002-11-14 09:27:46 UTC
Description of Problem: 
In the Contacts view, when using the up and down 
arrow keys to select contact entries in sequence, 
if there are more contacts entries that can fit 
on the screen (so that there is a horizontal 
scroll bar on the bottom of the view), and you 
select a contact entry that is not currently 
displayed (i.e. not in the view) the view does 
not scroll and you can't see which entry is 
selected. 
 
Steps to reproduce the problem: 
1. Select the Contacts view in Evolution 
2. use the arrow keys to scroll off the view 
 
Actual Results: 
you can't see the selected entry 
 
Expected Results: 
the view scrolls so the next column is fully in 
the view 
 
How often does this happen?  
always 
 
Additional Information: 
I used Evolution 1.2 when I found the bug, 
however I remember this from every other version 
of Evolution I've used. 
I'm using RedHat 8.0, but I don't think that's an 
issue with the bug :-). 
 
BTW: thanks for a great program!!!
