Overlay icons not shown immediately #116

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
When I open a repository with svnX (1.3b1) the first time (after launching 
svnX) there are no overlay icons shown in the repository window.

Then I have to right click somewhere in the window and choose "Review & 
Commit". I can cancel this dialog and now each item in the repository window, 
that I select, will get an overlay icon when selected (see screenshot).

When I close the repository window and reopen it, all items in the repository 
window will have correct overlay icons.

I think this should be fixed so that the overlay icons are shown directly when 
opening the repository dialog the first time.

[Everywhere you've written 'repository' I think you mean 'working copy'.]

SvnX knows nothing about overlay icons.  I.e. it doesn't generate them.
They are presumably generated by some other software.
You should probably talk to the creator/vendor of that software.

What are the overlay icons supposed to represent?
If they are supposed to indicate Subversion modified items then why is svnX not 
showing an 'M' in the leftmost column in your screen shot?
Is this any different from previous version of svnX?

Sorry about that. I meant working copy. 

I just found out that the are produced by SCPlugin 
(http://scplugin.tigris.org/) which tries (sort of) to reproduce the behavior 
of TortoiseSVN for Windows.

The icons just represent the SVN status of a certain file or directory (the 
green icon means "no modifications"). The screenshot shows svnX only showing 
icons for some items (and there are no modified items in that working copy so 
there won't be any "M" in the leftmost column).

Since you didn't implement these icons: Is there any chance you might add them 
directly to svnX?

This is an idea I have been considering for a long time.
The problem is that 'badging' only works well with larger & simpler icons.
I've decide to go for a slightly different approach with svnX 2.  I think 
people will like it.

In the mean time, I don't know of anything I can do to make svnX display 
SCPlugin's badging better.
