Dragging to folder then displays next item plus 1 instead of next item #338
Comments
I have tested this here, but cannot reproduce it: Do you have any other Add-ons installed that may modify behavior of navigation / move mail / copy mail etc? Can you check your error console (Ctrl+Shift+J). Recommended settings: You can add more output to the log by opening QF Settings / Advanced and then enabling "Debug Mode". If you right-click the Debug Mode checkbox you can enable additional detail: Here, you may want to enable the setting You can capture the log from console with right-click on any message, then select "Copy all Messages". (It would be helpful to reset the log before you test to minimize the amount of data) |
Just checking you received the emailed reply I sent you on the 8th Jan with examples of the problem. If not I'll try to post them here |
I can't recall that I got that one ... my main problem is that I cannot reproduce the behavior here - Thunderbird goes to the next (unread) message in the same folder as expected. If you replied to the github thread, your answers should end up here on this page. If the problem is reproducible, the log from error console might be helpful. |
Ok I'll copy the email I sent to here and try to upload the screenshot attachments. Firstly I may have not made clear, I wasn't dragging the item from the Inbox list I was first clicking on it to open and display it. Then I dragged the displayed item to the Quick Folder. This should have caused the next item in the Inbox list to display. But instead it was the next item plus one that displayed. The real next item was still in the Inbox and I could then display it by clicking 'Previous' on the toolbar. So Quick folders is NOT removing that next item, it's just the display that skips one. So not a serious problem but a bit of a nuisance. I have reproduced it and attach some screenshots to illustrate what happens. The first 'Inbox list' shows my Inbox with the item 'Re Waiting list' highlighted. The item below that is 'Save 5p off etc'. And the one below that is 'Your order from Inc Choice'. So I clicked on 'Re Waiting list' to open it and then dragged the opened item to the Quick Folder 'Stroll & Chat' and it moved Ok. But instead of displaying the next item 'Save 5p off', it actually displayed the item after that 'Your order from Inc Choice' - see the next two attached displays. 'Save 5p off' is still in the Inbox list. It was just skipped for display purposes - see the screenshot 'Inbox list after moving item'. I then re-did it all after clearing the error console and turning on debug mode as you directed. So the next screenshot is a copy of the console display this produced. Finally, I am attaching a screenshot of all the currently enabled Thunderbird extensions. As I initially said, I don't remember seeing this problem before, but this is the first time I have moved some emails for a couple of weeks.

Just a short update - I tried this after disabling all other add-ons but it still did it. Also both with previously unread emails and with previously read ones. I also notice that after moving an item to a quick folder, the next but one that appears takes a second or so to display which suggests it's being re-downloaded from the GMail server (I use IMAP). I'm sure this problem is recent but I'm not sure whether it started after either a Thunderbird update or a Quick Folders update and I don't really want the hassle of reverting back to an earlier version of either to check. I am on the latest Thunderbird release 102.6.1. |
Can you try the following test - what happens if you use the mail icon on the "current folder toolbar" while you are on the single message tab, to move it to another folder. Does this also skip the next mail? It seems a little cumbersome to open a mail in a tab, then go back to the 3-pane window to move it. Would make more sense to move it while / after reading it. I think the actual behavior (of going to the next mail) is from Thunderbird itself, so I am not quite sure what kind of rules are applied. Note that I am using reverse chronological ordering (latest emails get appended to the bottom) and usually have threaded view enabled too. |
That's what I was doing, dragging the mail icon to a folder on the quick folders toolbar while in the single message tab. That in my system then displays the next message plus 1 in the single message tab - that is the problem. I don't go back to the Inbox list to move it, I use the mail icon to move each mail when in the single message tab. |
PS I also have latest messages appended to the bottom of the Inbox list but I don't use threading as I prefer to read even related messages in date received order. |
**Update with further information. I normally use Thunderbird on this PC but also have a mirror copy on my MacBook which I usually only use when away from home which I haven't been for some weeks. So I decided to see if the problem was also there. Started Thunderbird, clicked on mail in the Inbox to open it in the single message tab and then used the quick folders mail icon to drag it to a quick folder. |
Ok I can now confirm that reverting Quick Folders to version 5.14 HAS fixed this problem. I've been right through my Inbox dragging items in the single message tab to a quick folder using the message icon and every time the Correct next message displays in that tab. Also unlike before, there is no delay in that next message appearing - previously it took some time to appear - I thought maybe it was re-downloading from the GMail server but maybe this too was something that was part of the problem. |
Generally that shouldn't be a problem - unless you are using also the latest version of quickFilters. There are some quirks in the interaction that may lead to multiple filter assistants being displayed if you use this combination. Also 5.14 will be less efficient when moving multiple (many!) emails, as it will split up the process into multiple function calls. |
I've just found that if I drag an item from my Inbox to one of my quick folder tabs, then the Inbox jumps one item and displays the next item plus one instead of the next item. I don't remember seeing this problem before the most recent quick folders update
