45968 - After renaming/deleting a profile Mozilla should "scroll" to the selected profile in the Available Profile list

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: Startup & Profiles, defect, P3)

Description

[Henrik Gemal]

If you have a lot of profiles (13+) so that the scrollbar appear in the 
Available Profiles list, and you create a new profile mozilla selects this newly 
created profile but doesn't scroll the Available Profile list to it, making it 
impossible to see which profile that's actually selected.

I am setting platform to all because this happens with win98 too..

Adding Todd Eyes... :-) because this affects usability / interface...

Marcio, agreed this is a bad problem for usability that we should eventually
fix, however the number of users with 13+ profiles is very small (probably all
work in this building!), so it is unlikely we will fix this in 6.1.

I agree Todd! Will not cause users to be mad with the product. Even if the 
focus/scroll is not properly set, the user is still able to find the profile.

when creating profiles it works.
It's done with the:
    profileTree.selectItem( item );
    profileTree.ensureElementIsVisible( item );

but I'm not sure how to include those when deleting/renaming.

Btw: happens when having more than 5 profiles not 13.

I don't understand how you run into the problem when renaming or deleting a 
profile.  The item stays selected after renaming, and the tree doesn't scroll 
back up...likewise, when deleting, the previous item gets selected but the tree 
doesn't scroll back up.
