• Usenapp curiosity

    From Mark@captain.black@gmail.com to uk.comp.sys.mac on Mon Aug 25 13:21:42 2025
    From Newsgroup: uk.comp.sys.mac

    Anyone had issues navigating Usenapp with the arrow keys? Quite often when I 'arrow' up to the next post it'll be blank and I have to 'arrow' down and back up again to make it show (or use the mouse to click another post then back to the first one). There are some slight variations to this - I just had to arrow up from the top-most post to make it show up... This is on an M1 MBA with latest Sequoia (not last night's update yet), but also on a 2017 MBA with Monterey. Been happening since I started using Usenapp - maybe 3 or 4 months. --- Synchronet 3.21a-Linux NewsLink 1.2

    Not seeing it. Using View -> Threads -> Show All Grouped. Just guessing - Might be worth experimenting with View options???

    I'm similar (just ungrouped). Pretty sure it's just a glitch though, as it doesn't happen all the time, and arrowing/clicking away then back fixes it.
    Not really a massive issue though!

    Yes I see this occasionally. Just a spinning "busy" icon and a blank message.
    Going to another message and back fixes it. I assumed it was some kind of failure to connect to the server. I am using the mouse and not the arrow keys.


    Certainly not a big deal, just annoying. I see it on this 2014 intel i5 Mac Mini and on my M2 Mac Book Pro.

    A new M4 Mini is coming in a couple days. I'm sure I'll see it there too.

    Have you, or anyone else, raised this matter here?

    https://www.usenapp.com/forum/

    Must be worth a try!

    HA Just saw it agin on this post. I was on the one below, then 'up-arrowed' to a blank message with the spinny thing. I waited a couple of seconds then went down then up again and it showed. Funny thing - I've previosly seen this post so assume t should be already downloaded.

    I am seeing this issue on the new M4 Mini I mentioned above. I have been using Usenapp for a couple years and this issue is fairly recent. Probably needs an update to deal with something that changed in MacOS.
