GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 86809
File selection problem; saved files markers incomplete
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
1. Select articles with shift key and arrow key or with page up/down. The selection is erased every time you lift the arrow key, so there is no way to cumulatively select big blocks of articles. 2. When I save binary attachments, pan no longer reliably shows the little disk to indicate that the file is saved. The article headers turn light gray, but sometimes there are no icons by the files, sometimes there are the round disks indicating the bodies have been downloaded and not saved. Good luck! Thanks for Pan, it is about the best program for anything I have found in linux/unix.
1. I can't reproduce that specific problem (although there are some issues with the articlelist, see bug #83973). Are you sure you have gtk2-2.0.5 ? 2. Any idea under what circumstances the icons are not there? I recently fixed a bug that would cause this (see #85445) so I'm wondering if you're seeing the same bug.
Hm. You mean if you hold the shift key down and repeatedly hit the up arrow, the article selection gets bigger and bigger? I don't have any other apps using gtk2 in order to test if this behavior is common across gtk2 apps. I'm using gtk2 from the Ximian preview page. Do you know of a gtk2 RPM I could use instead? Here is the info the Ximian one offers: $ rpm -qi gtk2 Name : gtk2 Relocations: (not relocateable) Version : 2.0.5.0.200206210447 Vendor: Ximian, Inc.

Sorry, I should have been clearer: when I try to reproduce your problem, I actually see the behaviour in bug #83973: the list never grows beyond two/three articles. In any case, both bugs should be fixed when we migrate to GtkTreeView (and in the meantime, mouse-selecting works OK), so I'm more interested in the second bug you described. Could you check if you're seeing the same bug, and if not, under what circumstances you're seeing this behaviour?
pauljohn: ping?
The icon problem seems to have been solved by your update release of 12.1. The selection problem still exists, but I understand you have a plan on that.
