Hi Ben,<br><br>Yeah we found your idea (almost by accident, but still found). And it looks really good :)<br><br>I'm sticking with two vertically separated parts, but that's mostly because it makes it more consistent with other systray plasmoids (like network manager). But it doesn't mean it's a must.<br>
<br>Anyone should be able to have edit access - <a href="http://bit.ly/lrDO8S">http://bit.ly/lrDO8S</a> <br>
<br>Can we assume considering having different statuses for individual accounts (as well as problems with connecting to individual accounts) as an <b>exceptions</b>? Basically it means this functionality must be, but not designed (and placed) for average Joe.<br>
<br>As for icon-only view - the 80% of my contacts has they pictures attached to at least one of the accounts. But for the remaining 20%, there should be way to display names too.<b> How about showing only top 2-3 contacts expanded with full names</b> (the remaining only with icons). I user filters by name, there will be less than 2-4 accounts with the same name, so everyone will be expanded :)<br>
<br><br>-----<br><blockquote><i>What if we added a "!" icon to the plasmoiod in the systray? If tha plasmoid were to be used on the<br>desktop there would be no problem because the status i visible. But if it were in a tray we could<br>
have an icon called "kde-telepathy-warning" where we have a "!" to notify the user that something's<br>wrong. What do you say?</i><br></blockquote>Or can we have icon color changed to red or rotating animation on top (similar to one in notifications then we copy files)<br>
Since it would be great message counter next to the icon, and "!" might take that precious space.<br><br><br>P.S. Since telepathy is integrated in address book, does it mean, that we could also send EMAILS form this plasmoid (treating email just as dummy IM client or similar)?<br>
<br>P.P.S I found damn nice animation, that could be used on filtering contacts. Take a look<a href="http://isotope.metafizzy.co/%20" target="_blank"> http://isotope.metafizzy.co/ </a><br>
