Description Wayne Feick 2009-12-15 19:41:14 UTC
Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. I have a series of nested mail folders (e.g. YYYY/MM) that I use for
   archiving mail
2. Click on a top level folder in the tree view at the side of the mail
   window to open the folder.
3. Click on a subfolder to open it up.
  
Actual results:

The top level folder closes and I cannot reopen it.

Expected results:

The second level folder opens.

Additional info:

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

Restarting evolution (even if I do a --force-shutdown) does not clear the issue.

Thanks for a bug report. How do you do that, with mouse or with a keyboard?
Is this different from bug #494712, where you are subscribed too?

Comment 2 Wayne Feick 2009-12-16 16:25:48 UTC
They could very well be the same issue. I missed it when I did a bug search before submitting because I was searching for evolution bugs.

It looks like that one has been open since April though. I only started noticing it when I upgraded to F12.

This is seriously impacting the usability of Evolution for me since I use folders a lot.

Comment 3 Milan Crha 2009-12-16 20:16:02 UTC
Thanks for the update. I understand you, but it seems to be an issue with GtkTreeView, something, what I believe cannot be influenced within Evolution. It's correct that it's harder to reproduce in other applications, but it seems to be just matter of some coincidence, than a matter of setup of the tree view or anything like that. I'm closing this as a duplicate of the older bug.
