I assume he means clicking anywhere else on the treebar EXCEPT the currently-focused channel? Coz it does indeed turn blue if you right-click or left-click somewhere else on the treebar. Are you seeing the same behaviour?
Indeed, that is what I am seeing here as well. This is essentially the standard behaviour in Windows for list controls. If a control has focus, it shows the selected item in blue, and when it does not have focus, it shows the selected item in gray. mIRC was previously showing the selected item in blue all the time, even when the Treebar did not have focus. I have basically standardized the behaviour across controls as much as I can. I see the same behaviour here in Explorer, Thunderbird, Visual Studio, etc. That said, I also see a lot of non-standard behaviour in other applications, so it's not clear-cut. But I wanted to try to comply with the standard GUI behaviour as much as possible.
