Description Murz 2013-11-01 07:07:43 UTC

We use jabber account that use long names for roster contacts, so when I open the tab, it have very long name, here is screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/Zq5XNrE.png
Kopete and other messengers have option for cut long tab names, I can specify max length in settings and last part are replaced to '...'. 

Can you add cutting long name in tab title feature to KDE Telepathy Text UI?

Reproducible: Always

Thanks, on kde telepaty 0.8 beta (0.7.80) this works very well!

Comment 4 Murz 2014-03-11 10:25:19 UTC

Also will be good to see tooltip (popup) with full contact name on hovering mouse under tab, because now cutted name sometimes too short for understand with who you talking now in this tab, thanks.
