Groups List Icon legend

Postby bonalymac » Fri Oct 21, 2011 5:02 am

Do the icopns represent anything different when in the Groups List rather than in the download list?

I'm thinking particularly of the Greencircle/BlueCircle with tick.

According to the help file this means

Blue circle with white tick >>> File is in the download/scratch list

Green circle >>> Idle with "new" state set

This appears to represent download list/file list info, and I'm not sure what it refers to in respect of the Groups list.

As far as I can see, selecting the group to make the tick appears has no impact onm whether a groups headers are downloaded or not, so I Can't see what it means.

Anyt help welcome. Thanks

Colin

The check boxes on the group list only apply when you do something like "Update all Groups" or right click a topic and "Download Latest". So, when you're updating groups of groups, it enables or disables update. If you manually select a group and tell it to download the headers, it ignores the check state.
