#853 new misbehavior

unfolding/folding groups via mouse click in tree often moves group out of view

Reported by: westram Owned by: devel
Priority: normal Milestone:
Component: ARB_NTREE Version: SVN
Keywords: group fold jump Cc:

Description (last modified by westram)

Reproduce (difficult; depends on really many settings/circumstances)
Best approach:

  • switch to dendrogram view
  • use the mouse to unfold or fold a group which is (much) bigger than viewport (when expanded)
  • group is moved outside the viewport (normally somewhere above)

Proposed "fix":

  • when clicking a clade ⇒ remember node
  • after refresh:
    check whether the group handle has been displayed in viewport.
    IIRC this is already done for 'selected group/species'.
  • if group handle was not displayed in viewport
    ⇒ center on group (same as JUMP button)

Workarounds (after group vanished from viewport):

  • use JUMP button
  • press ENTER twice

This misbehavior was previously documented in #748 (as similar but probably unrelated). IRS view is affected as well, but has general, systematic positioning problems.
