Description Alin M Elena 2012-12-01 14:20:59 UTC
I would be nice if one can decide how many lines of chat are loaded when in chat...

0 and all shall be valid options.


Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Daniele E. Domenichelli 2012-12-01 23:36:05 UTC
An "all" option seems a bit dangerous to me...
I'd rather have something like "last ## messages", "last hour", "last 24 hours", "last 48 hours", perhaps "last week".
More than that seems something that should be done using the log viewer...
Comment 2 David Edmundson 2012-12-05 05:59:32 UTC
Alin, how many lines would you personally change it to?

Even if we did have this option, we still need to have a good default.
Comment 3 Alin M Elena 2012-12-28 01:39:46 UTC
4 lines like now... we do not want to scare the people?

Comment 4 David Edmundson 2012-12-28 09:51:55 UTC
So you want an option to customise it.. but would personally leave it at 4 which is what it does anyway?

So why do we want this option?
Comment 5 Alin M Elena 2012-12-28 10:38:37 UTC
I said default 4 in order to avoid changing behaviour... personally I would set it to something higher than that...
