Hi, Colin and Martin. It just feels like a sledgehammer to crack a
nut. I have my aggregation settings as I like them, just as with
earlier releases I had my default settings as I like them. Yes, I
know I can change them, but that doesn't feel to be the 'quick and
dirty' temporary change that I want. I'll use it if there's no direct
equivalent of the old way, but it's simply not as convenient.
Well Anne, short of using the View menu to Expand all threads or a
Hotkey CTRL+ I think ? I don't have anymore ideas :(
Cheers
Colin
