36: Failure of Ctrl-Right (reading unread messages)
Hello TB Beta List, I use Ctrl-Right to read mail. It skips to the next unread message in the current folder (or the next folder when all messages are marked read in the current folder). It is no longer going to the first unread message. Here is an example. Suppose a folder (in threaded view) has this structure (all other mails are read): A - read B - unread C - unread If I position on message A and then go to the account name in the folder tree, pressing ctrl-right brings me to message C instead of message B. -- Best regards, Bill The Bat 3.5.36 Pro BayesIt! 0.8.1 X-Ray 1.4.0.0 XP Pro SP2 POP3 Current beta is 3.5.36 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/

Since message A has been marked read, you should NEVER get to it with ctrl-right. Perhaps you have reassigned ctrl-right? -- Best regards, Bill The Bat 3.5.36 Pro BayesIt! 0.8.1 X-Ray 1.4.0.0 XP Pro SP2 POP3 Current beta is 3.5.36 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/

BM BM It is no longer going to the first unread message. Can't confirm. Thanks for checking, Roelof. I understand and can see the same behavior with all messages visible. When I started this thread, I didn't realize that the behavior is different with my view mode - which only shows unread mail. let's first make sure we are in (no view mode). In your TB! Beta folder, with all messages read, press Alt+1 then Ctrl+= to be in standard threaded mode with all messages visible - we should have a common starting point. Now find the same structure and mark them unread so you have, anywhere in a thread: A - unread B - unread C - unread Now do View-Display-Only Unread messages. Only those three messages will be visible. Position on message A, mark it read (Ctrl+M) and then go to the account name in the folder tree. Finally, when you press Ctrl+Right, you will be positioned on message C instead of message B. Can you confirm that? -- Best regards, Bill The Bat 3.5.36 Pro BayesIt! 0.8.1 X-Ray 1.4.0.0 XP Pro SP2 POP3 Current beta is 3.5.36 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/

Are you sure that message B is really unread, and not just part of a (collapsed) thread where message C is located, and only message C is unread? Other than that... I don't see CTRL+right being the standard shortcut for move to next unread, its CTRL+ALT+right, I've used that forever since, and it does not fail here. *shrug* -- Best regards, Alexander (http://www.neurowerx.de - ICQ 238153981) Deliplayer2 is playing: Exotic Ocean (7:42) by Alien Mutation from the 1997 album 'DNA' Current beta is 3.5.36 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/

I used to use Ctrl+], but since using a laptop I've switched to Ctrl+Right - the Right is only three keys away from Ctrl :-) I have no idea why you choose to press an extra key - finger exercise? -- Best regards, Bill The Bat 3.5.36 Pro BayesIt! 0.8.1 X-Ray 1.4.0.0 XP Pro SP2 POP3 Current beta is 3.5.36 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/

I just repeated my test 6 times with a thread that started of as: Unread Unread Unread Unread Unread Unread Unread All other mails in the folder were read, so these were the only ones visible. Each time, I marked the top message read, clicked on the top account folder and hit Ctrl+Right. Each of the first five times I landed on the SECOND unread message. Of course, on the sixth test, there was only one unread mail remaining and Ctrl+Right went to it.

Since there are too many unread messages in my folders that I don't want to mark read at this time, I cannot reproduce this entirely, but I have noticed that there is something weird about the way TB! handles 'go to next unread' when the currently selected 'folder' is an account name itself. For instance, I have at the top of my account list, the acounts of myself and my wife: HyperCube Maurice HyperCube Brenda There are unread messages in both accounts. If I select the account name and for my wife and hit Ctrl-Right or Ctrl-], TB! goes to the first unread message of the 'HyperCube Maurice' account instead of what I expected to happen, the first unread message in 'HyperCube Brenda'. This means that in order to get to the unread messages in her account, I am forced to expand her account and select at least the top folder there in order to be able to use Ctrl-Right or Ctrl-]. -- Greetings, Maurice Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 The Bat! v3.5.36; Bayes Filter Plugin v2.0.3; AJS v0.6; MyMacros 1.11a; Current beta is 3.5.36 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
