---- Reported by chaz@yorba.org 2013-06-14 17:17:00 -0700 ---- Original Redmine bug id: 7101 Original URL: http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/7101 Searchable id: yorba-bug-7101 Original author: Charles Lindsay Original description: If you play around with clicking and ctrl-clicking folders, you'll notice some weirdness. It appears that the tree view allows multiple selection in the background, but only shows one selected folder. Because of that, and because Geary only tracks one selected folder, the logically selected folder can get out of sync with what appears to be selected. We shouldn't allow ctrl-clicking in the folder list.

In current Geary, holding Ctrl and then clicking a folder is just the same as clicking the folder. So I guess that Ctrl+clicking on folders has been disabled? Should be resolved as obsolete? yorba-bug-7102 (for shotwell) is bug 719221
Ah, I think it causes some kind of selection lag? For me the second-last folder Ctrl-clicked is loaded. This will go away with Bug 730712 however.
Resolving as obsolete all bugs that should be resolved by the sidebar redesign (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730712). I'd mark them as a duplicate, but bz won't let me :( Apologies for the noise.
