Re: [Pan-users] Pan 0.12 issues

I agree with #2 of below, the dialog for filters is a bit cumbersome.  Then
again, I also disliked the pull-down filter menu. How about the good old
days with clickable buttons on the toolbar.  I liked those because even if
you switched groups, the filter would stay. It seems I have to open the
dialog to apply filters EVERY time I switch groups (To filter incomplete
bins).
    Also, I was wondering if there's a way to automatically download all
headers for a group when it's dbl-clicked. (A small dialog always seems to
popup) And, I was wondering if the OK and CANCEL buttons were arranged right
in dialogs (seems i always go to push the wrong button).
    I love Pan, this is really the kind of open-source software that the
Windows world envies, and I think it truly represents the intentions of the
creators of the GPL.  Thanks guys, I'll be making more trips to the tip
jar!!

I believe some of this has been reported before but...

1. I find that using the GTK 2.0 stuff takes up more screen real estate than
   before. On a 15 inch screen this really  shows (especially in in the
   images groups). The stuff that takes up room are the scrollbars, the
   option menus and stuff like that.

2. I much prefered the option menu in 0.11.3 to select the message filters.
   This new fangled dialog slows things up and isn as useful.

3. Double-clicking on URLs just plain doesn't work.

4. The loss of keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl-Enter is the main one I miss) is no
   fun. :-(

I think there was another one but I can't remember. Pan still roolz, tho'.
