Re: 2nd Email Address Chris Maunder23-Jun-10 4:42 Chris Maunder 23-Jun-10 4:42  We deliberately prefix all CodeProject emails with [CodeProject] specifically to aid in setting up rules. cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP Re: 2nd Email Address Dan Neely23-Jun-10 5:23 Dan Neely 23-Jun-10 5:23  but that would require me to change my existing email rule and would deprive me of being able to every time I see the rule and am reminded that there apparently used to be a separate email address for each server. 3x12=36 2x12=24 1x12=12 0x12=18 Re: 2nd Email Address Chris Maunder23-Jun-10 6:24 Chris Maunder 23-Jun-10 6:24  When would you like me to schedule the next address change? Or shall I just, you know, surprise you? cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP Re: 2nd Email Address Dan Neely23-Jun-10 7:50 Dan Neely 23-Jun-10 7:50  During vacation would probably be the most annoying. I'll probably (80%) be taking a long weekend Aug 4-9th. Does that work for you? 3x12=36 2x12=24 1x12=12 0x12=18 Re: 2nd Email Address Luc Pattyn23-Jun-10 5:16 Luc Pattyn 23-Jun-10 5:16  There always is "codeproject.com" in the from-URL, and "[CodeProject]" in the subject line. That should be sufficient to filter unambiguously. And when it isn't, you could use one e-mail account for receiving all CP stuff, then forward from there.

After about a week I got it to work, the problem was that at my new company we have a whole bunch of infrastructure in London that zaps incoming spam way before it reaches my inbox in South Africa and the verification E-mail to forward to my work address was flagged as spam.

When we get a long and branching thread like this 0.0 1.0 2.0 3.0 4.0 5.0 x.1 (only more so), it can be very difficult to figure out what 'indent level' message x.1 belongs to. Is there any kind of visual hint that could be thrown to us mere mortals who don't have an imbedded vertical straightedge? I'm open to debate about what form this might take, but first, let's see if there's any/enough interest in the idea. Software rusts. Simon Stephenson, ca 1994.

The idea is / was to draw vertical line's.

Works if the thread isn't longer than 1 page if it is your solution is as good as any Re: Long and branching threads Dalek Dave23-Jun-10 1:10 Dalek Dave 23-Jun-10 1:10  Well it is a digital solution. ------------------------------------ I will never again mention that I was the poster of the One Millionth Lounge Post, nor that it was complete drivel.

Newer browsers could use HTML5 goodness, but that doesn't help the poor saps whose employers have locked them into IE6 hell. 3x12=36 2x12=24 1x12=12 0x12=18 Re: Long and branching threads Luc Pattyn23-Jun-10 3:49 Luc Pattyn 23-Jun-10 3:49  prefixing a single digit (the nesting depth modulo 10) to every message icon would be inexpensive and go a long way.

Re: Long and branching threads Chris Maunder23-Jun-10 4:40 Chris Maunder 23-Jun-10 4:40  Luc, I'm sorry but I think that's the worst suggestion you've made. It would add just noise. faint dotted lines, a la treeview, is what is needed. The issue here is HTML bloat. Once we cna use HTML5 then we could just draw the lines on a canvas. cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP Re: Long and branching threads Dan Neely23-Jun-10 5:25 Dan Neely 23-Jun-10 5:25  Can you just do it now for all the good browsers, feed IE users the legacy version, and point and laugh anytime they complain? 3x12=36 2x12=24 1x12=12 0x12=18 Re: Long and branching threads Chris Maunder23-Jun-10 5:42 Chris Maunder 23-Jun-10 5:42  I like your thinking... cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP Re: Long and branching threads Luc Pattyn23-Jun-10 8:37 Luc Pattyn 23-Jun-10 8:37  Dan Neely wrote: Newer browsers could use HTML5 You have studied this[^], haven't you?

Re: Long and branching threads Dan Neely23-Jun-10 10:35 Dan Neely 23-Jun-10 10:35  Nope (not a web dev) but the version of FF I have passes all the canvas tests and AFAIK that's what would be needed to draw line art so I should be among the laughers not the laughees when it's implemented. 3x12=36 2x12=24 1x12=12 0x12=18 Re: Long and branching threads Chris Maunder23-Jun-10 6:27 Chris Maunder 23-Jun-10 6:27  Another option that I have on my TODO is to provide a "parent" link that will take you back to the parent. cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP Re: Long and branching threads Luc Pattyn23-Jun-10 6:42 Luc Pattyn 23-Jun-10 6:42  yep. I suggested that earlier. FWIW: I did a little ASCII-arty treeview look here[^]; something I expect all browsers could handle. IMO HTML bloat is limited when compared to everything that is already there... Of course, the real stuff would be better, at least on browsers that can handle it.

Re: Long and branching threads Dan Neely23-Jun-10 7:51 Dan Neely 23-Jun-10 7:51  That looks so 1990. Perfect for pointing and laughing at the IE types. The only problem is that IIRC the indent levels get compressed on really deep threads to make it still fit on screen. 3x12=36 2x12=24 1x12=12 0x12=18 Re: Long and branching threads Luc Pattyn23-Jun-10 7:56 Luc Pattyn 23-Jun-10 7:56  Exacly. Now let us have the real thing on our foxy browsers, as well as the iPad we all relish.
