Description Nathaniel W. Turner 2005-01-27 20:15:24 UTC

Version:           0.16 #2075 (using KDE 3.3.2,  (3.1))
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-6)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.8-2-k7

I'm looking at my Kopete buddy list, and someone signs on.  The new entry smoothly slides into position in the list, and does a little blinky animation thing for a couple seconds to indicate that this user has just signed on.  A similar even occurs when someone signs off or changes their away state.  (When a buddy is signing off, the icon changes to indicate the new state and stays on the list for a few seconds so you can see who has just signed off.)

It would be nice if Konversation's nick list behaved the same way.

We can do tricks for away state. But these things can be costly when channel has 3000 users *blink*

Then make it auto-disable after a user-set limit.

Comment 3 Ismail Donmez 2005-12-15 17:46:44 UTC

Re-assign.

This should be a style/system-level thing rather than every app deciding for itself. Closing for that reason.
