Description Rob Kaper 2005-09-01 18:19:18 UTC 
Version:           0.10.2 (using KDE 3.4.0, compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.3 [FreeBSD] 20031106
OS:                FreeBSD (i386) release 5.2.1-RELEASE

The lenght of display names is limited to 129 characters, it would be nice if the input KLineEdit could prevent entering more or warn the user when it happens, to prevent cut-off names.

Please, check this: Settings > Behavior > Chat (last tab) > Truncate contact name with more characters than: xxx.
It also truncates yours.

If you thought to this, please close this bug.

Hi there, sorry for the bad news, but WLM has been discontinued by Microsoft, so this bug will be closed.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!
