38642 - Message pane context menus show mailnews items in browser areas

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect, P3)

Description

[scottputterman]

The message pane context menus shouldn't show mailnews menuitems like reply, 
forward, etc when right clicking on browser related items such as images and 
links.

When verifying, use the Mail Menus Spec and go to the Message Body section for 
specifics. 
1. Link selected
2. Image/Link selected
3. Image/Not Link selected

I assume, those items should be on the, too (just like 4.x).

Comment 3

[Ben Bucksch (:BenB)]

em, "on the top".

Comment 4

[Ninoschka Baca]

I'm not sure what is meant by "on the top". According to the spec here is what 
will appear in the context menu when a Link, Image/Link or Image/No Link is 
selected. Does this answer your question?

1. Link selected
Open Link in New Window
Open Link in Composer 
--------------------
Copy Link Location 
--------------------
Save Link As... 
Add Link To Bookmarks 
--------------------
Link Properties

2. Image/Link selected
Open Link in New Window
Open Link in Composer 
--------------
View Image <name> 
--------------
Copy Link Location 
Copy Image --- Ctrl+C 
Copy Image Location 
---------------
Save Link As...
Save Image As...
Add Link To Bookmarks 
----------------
Image Properties
Link Properties 

3. Image, not link
View Image <name> 
Copy Image --- Ctrl+C 
Copy Image Location 
-------------
Save Image As... 
-------------
Image Properties

nbaca, yes, that is what i meant (i have no access to google :( ). I *very*
often do "Open Link in New Window" and it should be the first item (like the
spec says).

> google

nonsense, gooey, of course

moving to future milestone.

nominating for nsbeta2. "Open in new window" is a *very* frequent action (I do
that for every second mail), and should be accessible very fast. (On Unix, you
might be able to middle-click, but not everyone can do that.)

> "Open in new window"

"Open Link in New Window", that is.

Comment 10

[scottputterman]

Yes, but the summary of the bug and as it was filed is "Message pane context
menus show mailnews items in browser areas" regardless of what the discussion
became, I don't plan to fix the original bug any time soon.

Comment 11

[Ben Bucksch (:BenB)]

Filed bug 44223 about "Open Link in New Window" moving to top. Removing nsbeta2
and 4xp nomination for that reason.

I changed QA contact from nbaca to olgam.

Putterman: I think this bug is fixed. 
(original description and everything else people were suggesting)
Resolve?

Comment 15

[Andreas Kunz]

No reaction etc., but this was fixed somehow during the last two or three years
(see summary, description and comment #10).
