You can thus (usually by mistake) end up with the Display Name having no relation to the Given Name and Family Name. Whatever, I think it would be good if the Display Name was shown in the name editing box, then it's clear when you change the Given Name and Family name that you haven't also changed the Display Name. It's also a bit odd that if you make a new Contacts entry and go straight to the pop-up name entry dialog you can end up with a blank Display Name. E.g. if I create a new entry for Chris Green by going to the pop-up dialog I end up with Given Name = Chris, Family Name = Green and an empty Display Name. Wouldn't it be a good idea if the Display Name is blank to populate it from Given Name + Family Name? Thanks for all the feedback by the way, I really appreciate it. -- Chris Green _______________________________________________ Owncloud mailing list Owncloud@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/owncloud
