Description Ryan Rix 2012-02-08 08:33:07 UTC

Version:           latest svn snapshot (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

The new ChoqokTabBar is really nicely done, and to get rid of the KTabBar along the top would complete the picture. It's a little bit mac-ish for my tastes, but it's the way I've seen a number of microblog clients do it, and I think it's the most elegant solution

I looked at doing this myself, but I couldn't wrap my head around the code for it in such a way that it wouldn't be horridly ugly. The best idea I have is to move the ChoqokTabBar directly in to ChoqokMainWindow and communicate the tabbar parts to it via signals. I donno, I'm really unfamiliar with this codebase and would be uncomfortable trying it out.

Can you provide a bigger screenshot?
This one is too small, and I cannot recognize what is where!? and so on.

BTW, Thanks for sharing the idea

Sure, of course :)

So, this one has two accounts, when you click on the avatar for the account (the grass or the smile face), it expands the reply, inbox, etc links below the avatar, and closes them when you are on another account. frankly, I think that is unnecessary and just listing them below the avatar would be Good as it would still keep the unread counts visible. Doesn't need any fancy macos animations, either, or anything like that.

Thank you for the bug report.

As this report hasn't seen any changes in 5 years or more, we ask if you can please confirm that the issue still persists.

If this bug is no longer persisting or relevant please change the status to resolved.

Choqok is unfortunately no longer maintained.

If a new maintainer wants to step up and take care, the project is archived here:

https://invent.kde.org/network/choqok

You can just clone it in your private namespace on invent.kde.org and if you have started to work on it and fixed/implemented something get it reviewed and the project unarchived.

Sorry for the inconveniences.
