Description Jeffrey 2012-08-03 18:54:38 UTC 
I use Kopete and KDE in my office of over 425 employees.  When I want to send a screenshot, the idea of "Send To > Instant Message contact" is a great one, but in practice it's impossible to use.  Those 425+ employees are all listed and fill my screen.  Not all of the contacts are listed (or perhaps don't fit), and the order is seemingly random.

It's be very nice to have a scroll list exactly like Kopete shows.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to send a screenshot
2. Too many people show up
3. Save it instead and email the screenshot
Actual Results:  
Screen fills with contacts, but not all, and in no discernible order

Expected Results:  
I have a nice, orderly list (with a filter?) from which to choose.

Thanks for KDE!

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years and I will be closing this bug. Spectacle is the replacement for ksnapshot now. Please test again and file a new bug for Spectacle if you still have issues. Thank you!
