Category: None Group: None >Status: Open Priority: 5 Submitted By: Accipiter (accipit3r) >Assigned to: Mark Doliner (thekingant) Summary: Status selection dropdown has no discernable logic Initial Comment: The available options in the newly created status selection dropdown do not seem to have any logical basis, at least on my system. There are duplicates, and NONE of my saved away messages are available in the menu. In Gaim 1.5, it worked perfectly in that you could select "away" and select a saved away message from a submenu. In the newest versions of Gaim, this is taken away and replaced with a clunky four-click method to use a custom message, instead of two. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Luke Schierer (lschiere) Date: 2006-01-24 21:35 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=28833 The duplicates are the result of a bug in beta1. they should clean themselves out given time. Mark, can you add to the faq a question on how the 6 states in that list are chosen? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Etan Reisner (deryni9) Date: 2006-01-24 21:34 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=516184 The middle section of the status selector shows you the top 6 most recently/most commonly used statuses. The fact that there are duplicates is the result of a bug in the first beta, any old entries will eventually time out and disappear. No status you haven't used recently/often will be shown in the toplevel selector, that seemed a reasonable way to handle useful access to the commonly used statuses while keeping the other not too far away. Including all the messages would create a menu that is entirely unusable, there have been requests for a submenu with the rest, we'll see what happens. And the sf attach thing does work, you probably just missed the "I really mean to attach these files" button. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Accipiter (accipit3r) Date: 2006-01-24 21:27 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1435702 Additionally, the "attach file" function in this sourceforge bug tracker thing doesn't seem to be working, so I'll provide links to pictures. http://img58.imageshack.us/img58/1181/menu2fk.png http://img58.imageshack.us/img58/7081/aways3wb.png ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=200235&aid=1414235&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
