can't open new connection if session list scrolled

can't open new connection if session list scrolled

avatar

hi!

when having a very long name for a connection, opening it results in the session list scrolled to the right ... this makes opening another session impossible ...

example:

session "test connection with long name" is opened ...
double clicking on "other test" won't start the connection ...
this is due tu the session list scrolled to the right ...

Hi!

When could we expect a bugfix for this issue ? We have the same problem and this makes the usage of RDM a little bit chewy...
The bug was reported nearly 5 month ago!!

Hi,
I'm unable to reproduce it, but you must double click on the text.

Hi David,

sure, but also the doubleclick won´t work when the list is scrolled sideways as you can see in the example of plague.
Maybe the problem occurs not in every environment. I use a Dell Notebook D630 in a docking station with 2 external Monitor. RDM runs on the main screen wit resolution 1680x1050. As more the maschine list is scrolled to the left (the scroll bar goes right), you can´t start a connection by doubleclick the beginning of the maschine entry. You also have to click more the right side of the entry to receive a response.
From the view of a coder it seems to be a problem of the scroll list. The click events doesn´t recognize the difference on the x-axis when it is scrolled.

Hi,
I changed the treeview mode in fullrowselect on click, I think that it might help. It will be in the next beta, can you give it a try when it's released (later today) ?

Sure, I will test the beta.

The changes in the last beta solved my problem.
Thanks!
