Description Jan Lahoda 2003-12-17 10:38:26 UTC

Build 200312161900, JDK1.4.2.

Steps:
1. Open the TODOs window.
2. Switch to "Current File".
3. "Edit Filter" -> add a filter
4. The view is automatically filtered.
5. Switch to "All Files" and back to "Current File".
6. The view is unfiltered, the filter is
"deactivated", the user has to "activate" on
his/her own.

I would suppose that the view stays filtered (the
filter stays "activated").

It's intentionaly coded so. However it makes sense to remember state
for each inner tab and restore it later on. I guess that user will
never filter current file view so he'll not be confused by empty view
caused by applied filter. Or code can restore the state only for All
Files tab.

It seemed to be a piece of cake but it's not :-(.

Comment 3 _ pkuzel 2004-02-05 22:58:26 UTC

the view keeps two filter instances and swaps them accordingly.

Comment 4 Jan Lahoda 2004-06-28 14:28:29 UTC

Seems OK in 200406271800.
