I 100% agree..

You know what's good for you ;) Hehe j/k

should be doable without keyb interaction.. do it as you feel is right, but still subtile + entry on CL being removable by config (amsn main point is its non-bloatedness), opera-style is good enough, people who want it, will notice it (we know opera's "/" trick, and it is very subtle.. never read it on docs either...) if a user doesn't notice it, too bad, it's not "the most incredible feature ever".. it's not like we implemented voice clip or whatever..

You're right :) I just implemented it on the new CL, for now it;s just an entry above the list because I cant be bothered to do anything more complex, I'm tired...

+ it is subtle but still visible, so I think we should go with it.. maybe have it's highlite on hover, so it's even more visible, or animated growth of the entry (mini-entry dragually becomes big text box)

Didn't quite understand that bit... sounds impressive though :P

Do you mean for the current contactlist? I was talking about the new one, but if you or someone else want to code that on the current contactlist, that'd be great (yes, I know I'm a gui man but I'm not going anywhere near the current contactlist code...it scares me).



new or old, same thing.. ($c meant $canvas) new,you know best.. on old, there is a simple "showUser" proc.. that may help (beware of unique ids for tags, in case user appears on multiple groups)


I think the ctrl+f thing is good, but on windows live messenger it has a text entry above the contactlist to filter (I think) - I think this would be a good way to do it too, people will know where to look instantly :) The mandatory tags is a good idea, I'll have a play on the new cl anyways... thanks!


cool, search field.. too bloated.. we have hybrid mode, fixes things.. option to show/remove search field ? on Opera, "/" or "." brings inline search in a nice "tooltip-looking" field in the bottom (try it you'll understand) I like that very much, when I said ctrl-F, entry pops up, I though about having the entry field ON the contact list, but kind of collapsed, ctrl-F mading it 'animatedly' appear inside the CL , I'd choose opera-like, bottom left, subtle..


The Opera thing is really nice, I just worry that if we have to use a keyboard shortcut, not many users will find the feature... but yeah that opera thing is real nice. Just to let you know, I just got the filtering working on the new cl. Used slightly different code to your pseudo code because it isnt just canvas tags, it uses 'contentmanager' (Sander will know what I mean), but it's the same principle. At the moment I just have a text entry there, it'd be perfectly possible (I think :P) to make it like you said, at the bottom right....I till worry a bit that that isn't visible enough...I know subtle is nice, works well, but like I said we do want users to see this feature! Hehe. Anyway, that can be discussed later I guess :)
Thanks for the ideas, I'm having funnn hehehe

Hi all,
Karel and I were chatting the other day and Karel mentioned something hed wanted for ages - a little search box on the CL so you can type
text in and Amsn will just show contacts with that text in their
nick/psm. This led to talking about creating filters (as with Nautilus, thoigh I've never tried, Karel can tell you more...) so you can add tags to contacts and create filters that search for certain tags/combinations of tags. When you have a big contaclist, this could be very useful and I think it's a great idea. Do other people agree, if so I will be sure to
add it to the new cl!

I think it's wonderfull ... I wanted to develop a plugin to do something
like that ... and especially to hode messages from some contacts
depending on groups (but tags are even better).

Sometime I just connect to see some people and don't want to talk to
others ... but don't want to block them neither.

So ... I think it's a good beginning.. you have my vote :)
