species information window fails to refresh

[epruesse]

• fix quoted in comment:3 by [15978]
  • still exists, but now one has to press the Info-button in the search window, because it does no longer pop-up automatically
• avoid possible confusion between the 2 types of info-window (see comment:2) by [15980]

Had forgotten about the Update (previously GET) button. Lowering priority and changing milestone.

Replying to epruesse:

Workaround is present in the "Update" Button.

The "Update" button isn't a workaround, it is a necessary feature:

• after clicking 'New window' the new window gets attached to the currently selected species and will stay with that species (until you click "Update").
• the "old window" keeps it's behavior (= "follow selection")

Removing the "Update" button would require the to close the "new window" and click 'New window' again, just to change the shown species.

Maybe there is still some confusion about these two windows? Probably the attached window should get some colored box showing the currently attached species name and the "Update" button should move next to that box?

I was able to produce one update (in motif version, did not check gtk):

• click species 'A' in search result → info pops up showing 'A'
• click species 'B' → info shows 'B'
• close info and click 'C' → info pops up, but still shows 'B'
• click 'D' → info shows 'D'

Still broken.
