           Summary: My wishlist abuot kopete GUI and Menu
           Product: kopete
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kopete-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: 91.matteo gmail com


Version:           0.12.4 (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I started using Kopete today and this is my impression of its GUI.

I think it is not very usable in some of it's menu...
There are just too many options or better there are twice the same option or 
completely useless options... because of this I have to swim between options to 
find what i need.

Just to show what i mean:
(Tray icon on right clic)
-Nobody will ever use *minimize* since you can just clic on the icon to do that;
-When someone add a contact he open the full window...or at least i do so...
-Set status is the most important thing you do with tray icon... if you have to 
go away fast you can't look for that options... take away that awful submenu 
for global status;
-Set status for specific protocol: ok, it may be useful, but it's boring to 
swim again in submenu and set every time "no status message"... it should be by 
default and if someone need a particular status message, he just add it than;  

And this is just for tray icon... ^_^
I read on the official website FAQ, and I know you have to respect kde 
"standard" and I don't really know which these standard are... but I really 
think the menu system needs a clean up...


This is my opinion, I don't want to flame... 
And... like always... sorry for my English and if i didn't found a similar 
thread in the bug tracker.
If you want I'll  post others suggestions (this was only tray icon), I haven't 
already wrote the rest because you may just blame me and I want to go to bed at 
the moment...
