Description Roman Kalukiewicz 2006-12-10 21:51:11 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

One very nice feature of clean style is that user photo is displayed once for every consecutive message. Time of message is displayer together with user photo. The problem I have is that if someone sends me a message very long after his last message I cannot see when it actually happened.

My proposition is to:
a) display date and photo when message was send after 10 minutes of silence (10 is an example, and maybe should be configured)
b) idea form gtalk - display date and photo on every message if it was received, when message window wasn't on top.

If you want to hear my opinion then I prefer solution a) ;)

I've just noticed that it has nothing to do with clean style ;)

It is probably connected with "group consecutive messages" option. Maybe some input box for time near this checkbox? ;)
