@DoctorG said in Bookmarks interface not updating properly.:
In Bookmark Panel or Bookmark Manager?
What means "update the view"? After what action did you needed to update?
Please explain and give some steps so i can check.
I looked into this a little further. The problem has some subtle features which made it seem intermittent at first.
My main profile has about 8,390 bookmarks. The problem occurs in both the Bookmark Panel and the Bookmark Manager. However, it does not occur in a test profile with fewer bookmarks and no extensions. I tried disabling all extensions in my main profile, but that did not help.
Symptoms I observe:
When I open the Bookmarks Panel or Manager, visible items in the bookmark list behave normally. However, after I scroll the bookmark list (by either scrollbar or mouse wheel), they exhibit the problem described below. Closing and re-opening the Bookmarks Panel or Manager (or <F4><F4> for Bookmark Panel) suppresses the problem temporarily, until I scroll the list again.
On a scrolled item, operations which SHOULD modify what is displayed or hidden in the list instead leave the displayed list unchanged. The operation APPEARS to have had no effect, even though the underlying state has changed. Such operations include (probably among others):
Click on a folder's triangle (expand/collapse),
Right-arrow (expand) or Left-arrow (collapse) on a folder,
Bookmark Active Page,
Delete Bookmark,
Delete Folder.
New Folder DOES display the new folder, probably because it pops up an entry field for the folder name.
After (2), an operation which moves the selection indicator causes the effect of the previous operation to be displayed in the bookmarks list. That is, an expanded folder's contents become visible, a collapsed folder's contents become hidden, a created bookmark becomes visible, or a deleted item disappears from view. Such operations include:
Click on a different (not selected) folder, bookmark, or separator,
Up-arrow or Down-arrow to move the selection,
Click in the
Search field,
Close and re-open the Bookmarks Panel or Manager.
Any suggestions to help track this down? Could there be a timing issue between updating a large bookmarks file and updating the displayed list?
