Category: None Group: None >Status: Closed Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Philip Reed (philipreed) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Buddy chat: cumbersome to invite Initial Comment: It's far more difficult to initiate a buddy chat using gaim 0.49 on Linux than on AIM (version Netscape IM 4.3.2229) on Windows. On AIM i select the friends i want to chat with, right click, and the menu shows "Send Buddy Chat Invitation". Then i get a dialog where i can both open a chat AND invite multiple users w/ the same invitation message -- all from about two mouse clicks (and keystrokes if i don't like the default text). In contrast, gaim seems to want me to create the chat, then invite the buddies one by one. I hope i'm missing something obvious, because this is VERY cumbersome. (Apologies if this is a duplicate -- i did search for "invite" && "chat" and didn't find an existing request, but i'm a little dubious that i'm the only one who's bothered by this. Maybe i just use chat more than most.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Luke Schierer (lschiere) Date: 2007-04-10 16:39 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.

I'm new to GTK and the Gaim code-base, so this could take awhile. Initially, I'm looking to just enable multiple invites at the same time, instead of pulling up the invite dialog for each one. Eventually it might be nice to support this better from the buddy list, but right now I'm looking at the dialog. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=350235&aid=488631&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
