• "View Unread" and Preview Pane

    By Ben Rose 2 decades ago

    1) Ensure you have 2 or 3 unread messages in inbox.

    2) Open the preview pane.

    3) Click the "view unread" button

    4) The first unread message is highlighted and appears in preview pane.



    Sometime this previewed message is marked as read, dissappears from the view and the next one is selected until the last message remains.

    Sometimes this previewed message is not marked as read.



    What is the expected behaviour?

    • Preview Unread only OpenNTF bug (w/ possible solution)

      By Ryan Benech 2 decades ago

      The standard Lotus template does not refresh the view when switching to show unread only. In both templates, the preview pane does not mark the documents as read when the view unread only option is enabled.



      But in the OpenNTF template, the show unread/show all actions refresh the hide the hide-when formulas. This apparently causes the view to refresh and hide the newly read previewed doc (but only when the user preference to mark previewed documents as read is enabled).



      This may be fixed by creating a label formula (instead of having 2 different labeled buttons) and change the logic of the action to toggle between showing unread only and not (instead of having 2 buttons), no refresh required (I think).

      • compared this, ND6 and R7 mail templates

        By Vince Schuurman/NotesOSS 2 decades ago

        All templates have exactly the same formula in the show unread only button:

        @ViewShowThisUnread("1");

        @Command([RefreshHideFormulas])

        So the cause of this problem must be found elsewhere :(
