95566 - Difference in the way seleting a folder works

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Henrik Gemal]

If you click on a folder with the mouse folder seems to get loaded. But if you
use the cursor up and down on the keyboard to move between folders the folder
doesn't seem to load before after the folder has been selected for a second or
so. Sometime I accidently hit hit the wrong folder with the mouse and
immidiately select another folder. But because of the folderloading I have to
wait until the folder has finished loading.

Hmm, this is caused by delayed "onSelect" event, for performance reasons.

[Jan Varga [:janv]]

aha, I see your point, you think click should be also delayed ?

If you think that the issue reported might still be relevant, please test with a recent release of SeaMonkey and if the problem persists feel free to re-open the report. Thank you.

Bulk reopening incorrectly expired bugs - no activity does not constitute no bug - these need proper checking.

Hmm I don't see any delay in loading when selecting a folder with either mouse or keyboard. Marking as WFM Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.9.1b5pre) Gecko/20090516 SeaMonkey/2.0b1pre
