I am running SeaMonkey 2.25 on MacOS 10.7.5 My problem is with Mail.
When I click on [i.e. open] an email it is highlighted with a colour
bar. If i click anywhere in the message pane below [i.e. a link in the
email] the highlighting of the email in the upper window pane in turned
off. This is not how previous versions have behaved. In earlier versions
of SeaMonkey when an email is highlighted by clicking on it remains
highlighted until the next message is clicked.
It is difficult to read email when the present email being read losses
it highlighting when the lower email window pane is clicked. It makes
hard to know which email is the next to be read.
The issue appears to be a focus issue. When the upper email window
losses focus by clicking in the lower pane, the change in focus from the
upper window to the lower window causes the highlighting of the email is
turned off.
Is there a solution to keep the highlighting from being lost when
reading my email OR is this a mail bug and I will have to wait for a bug
fix?
Paul, thank you for posting this...I've had a similar problem (with my
news server accounts at least, cannot say I've noted it in my e-mail
account).
Very, very, often in the Account's and Thread's Panes, the highlighted
lines become inverse, i.e. grey text on (in my case) a
white'ish/cream'ish background rather than my normal white text on a
brown background.
I have to look a second or third time to determine which news group/post
I am actually reading!!
(I had thought it might be my video system might have been dieing, as
I've been putting up with it since Christmas, maybe, and no-one had
mentioned it here!!)
(and I was going to post a screen capture, so people could see what I
was talking about, but, of course, tonight, so far, things are working
correctly!!)
