43229 - Top level folders with subfolders are indented.

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

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

Description

[laurel]

Refer to old bug #36740.

A top level mail folder having subfolders appears indented
(actually the twisty is aligned with the left side of top level folder column).
This has the effect of skewing the alignment for the folder pane, as top level
folders without subfolders align differently.

Same thing happens in thread pane when in threaded mode showing collapsed
threads.

Fixed for generic trees.  If it's still broken in mailnews, they must have their 
own rules.  Open a new bug against putterman.

Yeah, we do, because of the #%#$%#$ changes I had to make to make the @$@#$@#$ 
Mac people happy.

From David Hyatt 2000-06-14 19:31:
I put the "empty" rules to hide twisties into the core global rules for trees, 
so they can just bite me. :)

Carrying forward nsbeta2 nomination from bug #36740, which was actually given an
nsbeta2+ [6/15]

nominating for beta2.  I think we should fix this because it's pretty hard to 
use your folder pane when it looks the way it does.

yup, same for thread pane.

testcases from the old bugs:
<http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/showattachment.cgi?attach_id=8962> ("TrashFolders"
looks like a child of "Task", but is a sibling),
<http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/showattachment.cgi?attach_id=9409>.

bhuvan, do you mind if we try to load balance this bug to varada? You have a few
nsbeta2+ bugs. 

Comment 11

[racham]

Sure...no problem..Go ahead. I also explained varada about some of the issues 
related to this bug and the work that I already did. 

Comment 12

[Scott MacGregor]

okay re-assigning to varada. 

Comment 13

[varada]

Marking Fixed.
This was caused by the rule for
treeitem[empty="true"] > treerow > treecell > .tree-cell-twisty {               
  list-style-image:none;
}
The none is the same as collapse as far as space is concerned and hence the 
mis-alignment.
The fix was merely to change it to 
treeitem[empty="true"] > treerow > treecell > .tree-cell-twisty {               
  visibility:hidden;
}
which meant that the space existed but the twisty is hidden.
