[Feedreader-development] Re: FeedReader bug 853907

[Karsten H. <kh...@kh...>]

Hi David.

I also see this behaviour in some feeds i read.
I attach a screenshot as an example.

If you see the same problem, here is a workaround until it is fixed:

It seems that this happens when you click on a feeditem in the treeview 
in the left and then move the mouse so that FeedReader shows the hint of 
another feed. If the hint appears before the content of the feed you 
clicked on appears in the right listbox, FeedReader will never show the 
feeditems and the hints will look like in the screenshot.

Workaround:

1) Don't move the mouse over another feed until the feeditems are 
visible in the right listbox.

2) If you moved the mouse over another feed, click on another feed, wait 
until  the items of this feed are visible and then click again on the 
feed you want to read.


I discovered the steps to reprocuce this error this morning.
The fix will be in the next release which will come soon.

If you like, i will send you a new pre-release exe for testing.


Regards,

Karsten
