Version: Kopete 0.50.1 (using KDE 4.0.1) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages When grouping many conversations/chats in a window, only a certain amount of tabs are displayed before you have to start scrolling... You can see this on a screenshot here: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v725/humanstrobe/Kopete.png there's a tab on the very left side, that is not fully displayed, i would have to scroll and press the arrow left button in order to see this conversation. I don't remember seeing this feature in KDE3+ , I think you could display an endless amount of tabs. They were minimized when you opened new tabs/chats. I'd like to see this part of the configuration in Kopete. Bring it back!
I see the same behaviour in trunk r828586 (pre-4.1). But, when I resize the window, the tabs are shrunk to fit in the width, the way you want.
thanks for your comment Philip! will this be worked on then?! ;)
Can anyone still reproduce this bug with a recent KDE version? (4.1.3 / 4.2beta2 / 4.2svn) ? Thanks :)
(In reply to comment #3) > Can anyone still reproduce this bug with a recent KDE version? (4.1.3 / > 4.2beta2 / 4.2svn) ? Thanks :) > Reproducible always here on my Gentoo Box (KDE 4.1.3 Kopete 0.60.3). After resizing the chat window, tabs resize to fit the width of window.

Can confirm here - KDE 4.2.0's Kopete on Mandriva Linux Cooker. I also found the workaround of resizing the pane, but it's still annoying.
Gentoo, KDE 4.3.1, Kopete 0.70.90, bug still there... I've also found another workaround, just click twice on Participants button in chat window and tabs resize to fit in the window. Still it's very annoying, anybody to look at it?...
Bug still exists in KDE 4.6 RC2, Kopete 1.0.80
Same here, Kopete 1.0.80, KDE 4.6.3 on F14. Just some notes from browsing through the code: Even though in KopeteChatWindow::createTabBar(), the setAutomaticResizeTabs() is set to true, that is what is not working as expected. The KTabWidget::addTab is inherited from QTabWidget which knows nothing about automatic resize (the setAutomaticResizeTabs is a KTabWidget property). So, maybe adding an addTab() to KTabWidget which would handle the automatic resizing after adding a new tab would work? Unfortunately, a KTabWidget::resizeTabs() method does not seem to be directly available, so it cannot be explicitly called from KopeteChatWindow::addTab(). As I do not have the time to learn how to set up an area and try it out -- maybe someone else could give it a shot?
Dear user, unfortunately Kopete is no longer maintained. Please migrate to another solution, e.g. for Jabber a possibility is Kaidan, for Matrix a candidate is NeoChat.
