I've done some more experimenting and have some more info.

I suspect that this may be an issue with the code not initializing what the "current" tab is upon initially displaying the Actions screen(i.e. after pressing CTRL-SHIFT-A). I say this because I only see the problem after initially displaying the Actions screen(CTRL-SHIFT-A) but before I have switched to another tab. Once I switch to another tab and then back to the "Actions" tab, the problem goes away.

So here's the steps I use to recreate the problem and then make it go away:

1. Start Thinking Rock.
2. CTRL-SHIFT-A. "Actions" tab should now be displaying.
3. Click Single Actions tab.
4. F3
5. Enter "test item"
6. At this point "test item" does NOT appear on my "Actions" tab
7. Pressing CTRL-SHIFT-A will make "test item" now appear on "Actions" tab.
8. Select "test item" in the "Actions" tab.
9. Set Status to scheduled, and set the scheduled date to tomorrow.
10. "test item" will still appear in the "Actions" tab.
11. Press CTRL-SHIFT-A will make "test item" disappear.
12. Now click any other tab, and then click back to the "Actions" tab
13. Now add "test item 2"
14. "test item 2" will correctly appear in "Actions" tab
15. Change "test item 2" to scheduled with a scheduled date of tomorrow
16. "test item 2" will correctly disappear from "Actions" tab.

Everything will work fine going forward, until I press CTRL-SHIFT-A again. At that point, the problem re-appears.

Thank you. We can reproduce it now. We are trying to fix it. I always click on the icon to go to the screen.

I had this issue as well when trying to delete items when on a tab. The item was not deleted. So far, though it seems to be inconsistent. Deleting some items resulted in there immediate disappearance, with others nothing happened even after switching tabs and views and returning. Shutting down and re starting TR resulted in the item disappearing as it should

The problem I am seeing is not that the other tabs are not updating. The problem I am seeing is that the tab I am CURRENTLY on is also not updating. I believe that this is what the original poster on this thread was reporting also.

Specifically, I have a view setup to not display items scheduled for the future. If I change the scheduled date of item to be in the future, that item will not be removed from my current view unless I click away to another tab, and then come back to my original tab.

One other thing to note is that while testing this problem, I've noticed that about 15% of the time, it does work and I've not been able to figure out what's different in the scenarios when it does work.

Thanks for the quick action on this.


I just loaded the new fix. After a short and quick test it did look like the problem was solved. I'll keep an eye out over the next few days and let you know of any problems.
