• Usenapp - Mark as Read?

    I'm probably missing something obvious, but how do I 'Mark All as Read'? I've just installed Usenapp on a new-to-me M1 MBA and while I can select several (many?) posts and 'Mark as Read', if I select all of them Mark as Read is greyed out and 'Mark Subscription as Read' makes them all... well, disappear and I have to select the group and Mark as Unread to get them all back.

    May I suggest that you ask in the forum?

    View -> Threads -> Show All seems to work for me when a particular
    subscription
    is selected in the Main Window.

    Most of my acquired knowledge about Usenapp has been accidental ... for example, a few months ago I accidentally blundered into "Unhide" at the bottom left of the window which hides or displays the read threads in a group. Don't know if that will help?

    I don't think that wwe will ever see a manual for Usenapp (though I think there's a forum for users, if you have time to wade into that!).

    Yes that works too - never used it before!

    Andr|- will give a prompt reply if you ask for help.

    I use the "All as Read" button in the top left corner of the main Newsreader screen. Just to the right of the "Get Latest in..." button. All messages remain visible but all groups are marked as read.

    I'd add that right-clicking things in Usenapp (in all apps actually come to think of it) can iften be very revealing.
