Hello! My hope in Feedreader has raised again. Bugfixes and stuff... :) Big thanks to developers. I use Feedreader daily myself. And that leads us to my biggest problem. I have about 60 feeds subscribed. But sometimes GETting some feeds does not work. Webserver does not give error but only stays in status "Connected". So it's quite common that i go to work in the morning and see that those progressbars in lower right corner are partly green and updating progress is not ended. But if I press "update" button, it does not do anything (because software knows/thinks that update is going on). Only possibility is to restart feedreader. I think that feedreader has to have some kind of timeout management. So that thread could not have more than 5 minutes off running time for example. I'm not quite at home with threads programming and stopping them. Has anyboyd some neat ideas? :) Greetings Toomas |

This menu should popup then clicking in "My feeds" item. At the moment
there are already "mark all headlines read". By the way, there are two
commands called "mark all headlines as read" but they do different
things. Beware of that :) In future we should get rid of one of them.
My implementation makes read only the feed what is active (or all feeds
if "my feeds" is active"). Another implementation makes read all
headlines everywhere. I thing that my implementation is a little bit
better.<br>

What would be nice also, is a possibility to mark all feeds in a folder as read. Greetings, Karsten (khoffrath) |

But in line with good usability - only with an extra question "You are about to mark all feeds read - continue?" :o)) Nicole -- http://www.useful-sounds.de/ - http://beissholz.de |
