51388 - Thread button does not display in MailNews Thread Pane of Classic skin

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: Themes, defect, P5)

Description

[Patty Mac]

Platforms and builds:(occurs on all platforms and build:2000-09-05-08-M18).

Steps to reproduce:

1. Launch the netscape 6.
2. Go to Preferences, select 'Modern' under Themes.
3. Open Mail from "Task".
4. You would see the 'Thread plane button' near the "Subject" on the 
   thread plan. The 'thread plane button' only displays first time
   launching the netscape 6. 
5. Go back to Preferences, select "Classic" under Themes again.
6. Repeat step#3.
7. Unable to see the 'Thread plan button" near the 'Subject' on the
   thread plane.
8. Go to Preferences again and select "Modern" under Themes again.
9. Repeat step#3.
10.Unable to see the 'Thread plan button" near the 'Subject' on the
   thread plan.
NOTE: The only thing you could see the 'thread plane button' again from
      Modern skin is to exit the netscape 6 and try to launch it again.
      If you change from Classic to Modern, you are unable to see
      the 'thread plane button'. It seems that thread plane button 
     displays only first time launching netscape 6 when selecting "Modern"
     skin. Then right after that, you select "Classic" skin, then changing
     back to "Modern Skin" again, that 'thread plane button" does not display
     until you exit Netscape 6 and re-lauching it again.

I see this as well.  Followed the steps listed and it acted the same way with my 
system.

Marking + and sending to Andrew.  Not sure if this is a dup of the image caching 
bug or if the 'Thread' icon is missing from the upper left hand corner of the 
Thread Pane.  (Changing subject line)

I'll investigate. Looks like the test of changing to classic, quitting, then 
restarting with classic first may not have been tried. Looking now.

Comment 4

This must be one of those image not displaying bugs - as I can see the thread 
buttton when I switch to classic and restart.

Comment 5

[andreww]

setting depends.

PDT would like to know if this bug is intermittent, like bug 52390, or whether
it's just the first time you switch skins. If the latter, it's not an nsbeta3+

Comment 7

[selmer (gone)]

The workaround of using the view menu is obvious.  pdtp5.

Comment 8

[andreww]

It seems to happen every time you switch, but I cannot determine if it's from 
the image caching problem or something else. If you start out in classic you 
dont see this. So folks will encounter this fairly rarely...

Comment 9

[lchiang]

per PDT:  P3-P5 priority bugs changed from nsbeta3+ to nsbeta3- since we have
more important work to do for Seamonkey.  If you disagree, please state your
case in the bug report and nominate for rtm.  Thanks.
