Description Jussi Kekkonen 2006-02-24 02:07:00 UTC
Version:           0.12 (SVN) (using KDE KDE 3.5.1)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

if new tab is opened during writing in one tab, it gets focus, example: I'm writing something private to contact X, and the meantime contact Y says "hi!" to me (and new tab is opened, ofcourse) rest of sentence ends up to wrong chat.

I lower priority. Also, one way to "fix" this is to open all tabs that user opens in foreground, else background. 
Have to look this annoyance myself too ;)

This is propably happening when tab bar is located in bottom and appears when second chat is opened. Then the space reserved to chat is reduced by tab bar and because chat is "aligned" to upper edge then extra space is taken from bottom (and thus happens "scoll effect") ...if this makes any sense.

Problem could be fixed by "aligning" to bottom edge so resizing window doesnt effect what happens in bottom.
Comment 3 Felix Eckhofer 2006-11-18 18:37:44 UTC
The problem here is that every incoming message forces the focus to the respective tab. "Open in background" would not help here for example if the tab is already open. My proposal would be never to automatically switch tabs if the chatwindow is currently focused.

Marking as dupe of 125792 because that one contains patch.
