TB!'s message list follows the same principle. a) If the list is not in focus and no item is selected, the items have a particular text colour and background. Read/Unread options in colour group configuration. b) Select an item with the list in focus and the background +/- text colour changes to indicate that the item is selected. This depends usually on the Windows display setup. Selected Read/Selected Unread in colour group configuration. c) If the item remains selected and you remove focus from the list, the items background changes yet again +/- the text colour. Again, this depends on the colour scheme used in Windows. Inactive Selected Read/Inactive Selected Unread in colour group options. Previously, colour grouping addressed only a) via the read and unread colour options. The colour groups configuration has been enhanced to support these other situations, i.e., b and c. In this way, you can appreciate that particular messages are assigned to colour groups *whether or not* the message is selected and *whether or not* the message is selected with the list is out of focus. This is far better than before. Before this enhancement, I'd be browsing and am reading a message that isn't clearly labelled with the colour group since it's selected in the list. It's when I move to another message that the colour label becomes apparent. IOW's, you only saw the colour group effect when the messages are not selected. Very limited, no? :) -- -= Curtis=- Using TB! v3.61.03 beta System Specs: http://specs.aimlink.name =-=-= ...Petroleum and coffee had no value a few centuries ago. ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.61.03 | '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/
