Some general improvements by nunoperalta on 03-20-2008 at 02:00 AM

Hi!

I am fan of text chat logs :P
A nickname can have 160 characters, and I want to save all characters. The maximum I can choose is "100". Can you increase it for 160? ;)

The option "See event log" is only available in caption menu "Plus!".
Why don't put in Plus! button in contact list? ;)

Cleaning contact list. --> What about a field to filter contacts?

Formating text in IRC style --> It can be available when we format the nick in Options menu.

Good bye ^^
Good work, too =D

For the first suggestion, I wouldn't see much point in this - if you're storing at least 100 characters, why not just store them all by unchecking the box?

I think you want to find a contact with his/her email more easily in that window (because you didn't mention about which criteria you want to filter them, there are many avaliable info for them) and I thought that idea before but now I prefer sorting the list by clicking on bars at the top to do so. Yet, your suggestion would definitely be more useful.

I believe you already know the possibility of using IRC style in conversation windows with formatting shortcut keys and using /name, /nick commands. But the format panel doesn't add IRC style codes even if IRC style has been selected in preferences. So I would prefer an extending behaviour to this like if we select IRC style codes in Preferences>Formatting, then they will be used even when adding formatting from the Format Panel, because I find the current case inconsistent to get BBCode style codes when added from panel and IRC style ones when used shortcuts. So in the preferences, the unchecking "enable shortcut" option will not disable the format style options. They will be still valid for using from Format Panel itself. See the screenshot

By the way, why isn't there a shortcut key for stroke out formatting code? Let someone who know this reply please.
