(This bug imported from BugSplat, Netscape's internal bugsystem. It was known there as bug #343965 http://scopus.netscape.com/bugsplat/show_bug.cgi?id=343965 Imported into Bugzilla on 02/26/99 11:33) 1) On a Mac when hovering cursor over IMAP mail folders, a folder status flag diplays so many unread of so many total. This behavior is not seen on the PC. Can this functionality be introduced to the PC client?

Shouldn't be assigned to hannigan. Reassign to scotty to decide if we want this functionality on 5.0.

I think this is cool, and we should do it if we can. Since hyatt is doing tooltips for M6 (so says http://www.mozilla.org/xpfe/MilestonePlan.html), I'm marking this M7 and assigning to alecf, cc putterman

Scott - any idea when we would implement this?
Target Milestone: M13 → M14
I would guess at least after PR1. Moving to M14 for now.

The behavior described here is actually what we agreed to for mozilla. Alec, do you know when we're going to have title tips in the tree control? This would be nice for B1, but it seems dependent on the tree widget capabilities.
M16.

It's not essential but I would like to see Tooltips in for RTM.
M16 Linux 2000-050820 right now, when i mouse over widgets like arrows or folders there are tooltips showing up in mailnews. But if i mouse over the arrow an error displays in console: JavaScript error: line 0: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004002 (NS_NOINTERFACE) [nsIRDFCompositeDataSource.GetTarget]" nsresult: "0x80004002 (NS_NOINTERFACE)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://messenger/content/mail3PaneWindowCommands.js :: FillInFolderTooltip :: line 729" data: no] The error does not display if i mouse over a folder; but untill i've actively selected a folder the tooltip only displays "0/???". Should this be filed as a separate bug?
sorry for the spam: Forgot to mention that (probably) because of the JS error, double-clicking twisties before a mailfolder has no effect. Have to double-click the folder itself to open the folder.
Yeah, it would be good as a separate bug against me. I'm, going to mark this fixed. As for the twisty, currently anything that has a tooltip requires a second click (buttons, folder items, twisties, etc). I'm able to use twisties in this way so I don't think the exception is causing the problem.
