Version:            (using KDE 4.0.0)
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs

The list of participants that appears when clicking 'Show Participants' should appear just wide enough for the longest name to fit in.

SVN commit 806783 by nienhueser:

Enable word wrapping for participant list to avoid horizontal scrollbars. Gets confused (wrapping stops) after toggling visibility of the dock widget, but this seems to be a Qt problem?

I'm not really comfortable with using the longest participants name as width: It screws up the layout for people with long names. Instead I activated word wrapping.

Leaving this open as there are still issues when toggling visibility (close and show again) of the participants list: Word wrapping doesn't happen anymore for some reason, maybe related to the scroll area not synchronizing the size with the QListView.

Dear user, unfortunately Kopete is no longer maintained.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.
