this is probably a nuisance thing, but it would help to see what thread the
unread message was in.

I'm sure this is mine, but I'm not exactly sure what you mean in the summary.

Comment 3

[lchiang]

Perhaps, it means that the thread pane doesn't select the next unread message or
that the next unread message doesn't scroll to view.

Comment 4

[scottputterman]

If that's the case, I thought Alec fixed this last week.  Perhaps not.

Comment 5

[scottputterman]

maybe he fixed something else because this isn't currently working.

Comment 6

[Phil Peterson]

Alec, is this a dup of your bug on scrolling the tree to make sure the selected
item is in view?

Comment 7

[Alec Flett]

close, I need to finish #12895, then there is some minor mail work that must be
done.

Comment 8

[scottputterman]

alec checked in his fixes and I used them so that this now works.

When I click on the Next button or select Go|Next|Unread Message, it scrolls to
view only 1/3 of the message header. I expect to be able to view the entire
header of the message in the thread pane.
Reopen this bug for this reason.

reassigning to alecf.  This may or may not be your bug.  But if we could scroll
to the middle or some place that's not the exact bottom, that would be cool.

Comment 11

[Alec Flett]

this is indeed my bug...however, I don't expect to get to it any time soon :(

Comment 12

[Alec Flett]

so I figured out what's going on here, and unfortunately, it's not pretty.
But I have an idea.
The tree is in fact behaving correctly by scrolling to the right place, but the
headers move AFTER the message has been selected.
I'm thinking:
1) we fix the headers problem. I think mscott has looked into this with hyatt
2) when any message is done loading, THATs when we scroll it into view, not
before.

moving M13 bugs to M14 to get them off the radar.
(Not to worry, I'm still working on these before my other m13 bugs!)

Comment 14

[Phil Peterson]

Alec says it works ok except the first time you open a folder. In that case, the
initial header display comes up after we try to scroll to the right message,
obscuring it. This remaining symptom is not a beta stopper.

this just works.. putterman must have fixed it long ago

Comment 18

[scottputterman]

I don't think I fixed this !  Basically, sometimes the next selected message is 
below the splitter and sometime it isn't.  Generally when it's below, it's just 
below as if there's an off by one error some place.  This may be a different bug 
as well.

I see that when I select Go|Next Unread Message, it display the next unread 
message and the thread pane shows the thread of the Unread message.
