* Scrolling the article at point in gnus-summary-mode @ 2007-11-28 17:01 Bastien 2007-11-29 8:39 ` Stephen Berman 0 siblings, 1 reply; 5+ messages in thread From: Bastien @ 2007-11-28 17:01 UTC (permalink / raw) To: ding Hi, when hitting RET or SPC to scroll an article from the summary buffer, Gnus scrolls the article in *article*. But if the article in *article* is _not_ the article the point is on in the summary buffer, then RET will scroll the wrong article. RET should make sure that the article at point in the summary buffer and article in *article* are the same before scrolling. Did someone else already encounter this issue? -- Bastien ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

I have definitely observed the following, which I suppose is related: When more than one Gnus Summary buffer is open, typing h in the Article buffer goes to that last selected Summary buffer, even if the article comes from another Summary buffer. I suppose this has to do with Gnus only having one *Article* buffer, while allowing multiple Summary buffers, which are differently named. I used rename-uniquely on the *Article* buffer but that didn't make h work better. Steve Berman ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

You can have one article buffer per summary buffer. ,----[ C-h v gnus-single-article-buffer RET ] | gnus-single-article-buffer is a variable defined in `gnus-sum.el'. | Its value is t | | Documentation: | *If non-nil, display all articles in the same buffer. | If nil, each group will get its own article buffer. | | You can customize this variable. `---- Or to have several article buffers in the same summary buffer, have a look at: ,----[ (info "(gnus)Sticky Articles") ] | When you select an article the current article buffer will be reused | according to the value of the variable `gnus-single-article-buffer'. | If its value is non-`nil' (the default) all articles reuse the same | article buffer.
