Created attachment 116474 [details] All change paths shown in spite of unchecked option. Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201203071105) Java: 1.6.0_31; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 20.6-b01 System: Linux version 3.0.0-12-generic running on i386; UTF-8; cs_CZ (nb) User directory: /home/cesilko/.netbeans/dev Cache directory: /home/cesilko/.cache/netbeans/dev Description: ============ Firstly, "Show All Change Paths" option does not display/hide all affected files on "Diff" tab as it only works on "Summary" tab. Secondly, if user clicks "Show all files" link to see all files and then changes his mind, the "Show All Change Paths" option does no longer work. See attached screenshot. Steps to reproduce: =================== 1. Open some Mercurial versioned project. 2. Select some file which was changed in the past together with few more files in one commit/push/etc. 3. Right click it and choose "History > Show History" from its popup menu. 4. Click "Search Mercurial History >" link from the History toolbar. 5. Switch to "Diff" tab and expand some revision node. Although you don't have "Show All Change Paths" option checked, you will see more entries except the desired file. 6. Switch back to "Summary" tab and expand some revision. 7. Click "Show all files" link to see all files changed in this revision. 8. Now check and then uncheck "Show All Change Paths" option. All changed files are still visible.
> Firstly, "Show All Change Paths" option does not display/hide all affected > files on "Diff" tab as it only works on "Summary" tab. Right, that was the intention. I'll disable the checkbox for the Diff view > 7. Click "Show all files" link to see all files changed in this revision. > 8. Now check and then uncheck "Show All Change Paths" option. All changed files > are still visible. They are because you previously clicked on "Show all files" - you deliberately chose to display all files. The checkbox does not and should not affect such revisions. However it may be desirable to offer something like "Show Less Files" (the opposite to "Show all files")
Great, that would be less confusing.
