History entries get jumbled on new notification #526

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
When viewing the history pane, if a new notification comes in then the ordering 
of the entries gets jumbled.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open history pane in Growl preferences
2. Trigger a new notification to come in (that is logged)

What is the expected output?
New notification should appear in the history in order

What do you see instead?
All list entries get jumbled into some arbitrary ordering

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Growl 2.0beta, OS X 10.7.4

This won't get fixed in 2.0, as 2.0 is already in the hands of Apple for 
review.  Setting this on the 2.1 milestone, although if we have to do a 2.0.1 
for a more serious issue, it might wind up resolved in it.

Arg... I knew this had to have been reported and could not find it again with 
some searches... Sorry.
The merge is perfect.

I don't know if that issue opened one year ago has to wait to Milestone-2.2.

But, out of experience, its visibility is much larger and worse than the 
scenario described in the first message posted.
The fact is that, when the user goes to the history pane where he thinks he'll 
find its recent notifications sorted by time, it's quite NEVER sorted by time 
(even if the Time column is still highlighted) and not even sorted at all to be 
true.

Why, and how to reproduce the bug:
- go the the History pane and click on "Time" to have notifications sorted by 
date.
- leave the preference pane.
- as soon as a new notification will be produced with Growl, then going back
to the History preference pane display a totally jumbled display:

1) the last column selected as order criterion is still highlighted (here 
"Time")
2) but all the entries (the one before the last visit and the new ones) are 
totally jumbled: no sense in that sort (not sorted by Application, nor by 
Message, nor by Time...) Arg ???

Then currently, the only solution to see a sorted display of recent 
notifications in the history tab is to manually re-sort the list each time you 
go to the History tab.
(the only case where you can avoid this manual re-sort is when... there were no 
new notifications at all after your last visit ;-))
