strange behavior from 'n' and 'p' keys when near collapsed threads

[mankoff]

Navigating the header view with 'n' and 'p' no longer works perfectly.

'n' moves right 1 when 1 line below a ">". 'p' from below a ">" moves to end of line with ">"

I confirm. I'm navigating with up/down arrows which work fine s maybe the native binding for n/p is different. I suspect make you point on an hidden child and this might be the reason.

I think the one issue I'm having is probably the same one as this:

if I navigate in headers view to a folded thread (say by arrows keys or mouse click) and view the first message in the folded thread (without unfolding), then pressing =n= moves me to the next message in the next in the =Article= buffer but the indicator from the =mu4e-headers= buffer just disappears.

Would there be a way of having navigation beyond the first message of a folded thread automatically trigger the unfolding of that thread?

[rougier]

That might be doable. If you look at the toggle-at-point code, I think you can probably adapt it.

I noticed the same scrolling issue as described in the first post, using the j and k keys in evil-mode. Unbinding the keys from the original mu4e-headers-next and mu4e-headers-previous and rebinding to the regular evil-next-line and evil-previous-line fixed it.

  (define-key mu4e-headers-mode-map (kbd "<normal-state> j")     nil)
  (define-key mu4e-headers-mode-map (kbd "<normal-state> j")     'evil-next-line)
  (define-key mu4e-headers-mode-map (kbd "<normal-state> k")     nil)
  (define-key mu4e-headers-mode-map (kbd "<normal-state> k")     'evil-previous-line)

Do you what the difference between the mu4e-heders-next and evil-next-line?

[maxmahlke]

From the documentation, it seems that mu4e-headers-next works based on the message headers, not on the lines themselves. I assume that the folded thread counts as two messages but just one line, so evil-next-line skips the hidden message correctly.

evil-next-line

Documentation Move the cursor COUNT lines down.

mu4e-headers-next

Documentation Move point to the next message header.

Thanks. Skipping hidden lines make sense. I need to implement this (or just copy the code from evil-next-line)
