Category: None Group: None >Status: Closed Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Filip Miletic (filmil) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Accepting buddy request denied by default Initial Comment: On several occasions it happened that, during some random typing on the computer, a GAIM window pops up saying that someone somewhere asks to add me on their buddy list. However, as I am typing away, I happen to press SPACE just 0.1s after the window appears, and the window goes away in a flash, without me not even having the chance to see what it actually said. The would-be buddy is denied before I even considered adding to the list. And, for the record, so far I have denied no questions. The same holds for other GAIM notices that pop up. The default OK button gets pressed before I actually have the opportunity to read the window. You might consider making it more difficult for the warnings to slip through this way. However, it is not convenient to make the popup more difficult to close; it would IMHO be better that notices be saved, so that a log window can be displayed where one could see all system messages that have been received, and where pending requests can be attended to. The user might have a choice of wheter to make this window pop up or not, and whether GAIM should notify the user. This might even qualify to be a plugin. f ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Luke Schierer (lschiere) Date: 2007-04-09 21:14 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=28833 Originator: NO As we are closing this tracker, please submit any feature request that is still valid to http://developer.pidgin.im.

For example there is http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=969136&group_id=235&atid=350235 about file transfer requests. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Spam3234 (spam3234) Date: 2004-07-09 19:01 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1027350 It could even just be a pop-up that does not gain focus, it just pops up, and sits there until you click in it (it's pretty hard to click on something by mistake) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=350235&aid=987868&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
