I do not see an icon for empathy in the notification area. I've just added a new notification area to confirm this. -- empathy can be running without a visible UI https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/570590 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I've just checked to see what happens with no notification area or indicator applet: without either, empathy disappears in just the same manner as already described. -- empathy can be running without a visible UI https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/570590 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 570590] Re: empathy can be running without a visible UI
With no indicator applet, this causes empathy to draw an icon in the notification area. so the bug can be restated as: With no indicator applet in gnome-panel and with the default options set (i.e. show incoming messages in the messaging menu), on clicking the 'close' button on the empathy main UI, empathy will remain running but without any visual indication it is doing so. Suggested solution: When deciding whether to draw an icon in the notification area, take into account both the show incoming messages in the messaging menu preference and whether or not the indicator applet is running. Additionally: When there is no indicator applet nor notification area loaded in the panel, the behaviour of the close button should change. It should either exit the application (as per HIG), perhaps prompting the user for confirmation (since this is not the usual behaviour) or minimize the application (functionally equivalent to docking the app in the notification area or indicator applet, and the behaviour chosen by MSN messenger in Windows 7) -- empathy can be running without a visible UI https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/570590 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Jon, remove indicator-applet from panel, logout and login again and you will see empathy icon in the notification area(even if empathy is set to use messaging menu in preferences). Though it would be great that as we remove indicator applet empathy should show its icon in the notification area. For the point that if the user in not using notification area and indicator applet at all that would be an upstream issue. I will open an upstream task now and link it here.

Reported upstream https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617065 you could subscribe yourself to that bug report and if possible please comment with your suggestion there ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #617065 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617065 ** Description changed: Binary package hint: empathy - The default behaviour for empathy with the indicator applet present on - gnome-panel is to hide the UI when you click the close button but keep - running. The UI can be brought back to life by selecting Chat under - the indicator applet. + When there is no indicator applet nor notification area loaded in the + panel, the behaviour of the close button should change. It should either + exit the application (as per HIG), perhaps prompting the user for + confirmation (since this is not the usual behaviour) or minimize the + application. - If you remove the indicator applet from gnome-panel, empathy's behaviour - will not change, but the main UI will disappear. It cannot be retrieved - via the indicator applet, obviously, but remains running, so you are - listed as present etc. on your IM networks. - - In this situation it is possible to get the UI to re-appear by launching - a new empathy instance (which causes the original instance to display - its UI) but this is not particulary intuitive. - - Empathy should perhaps quit like a traditional program when you click on - the close button and do not have an indicator applet. Perhaps with an - are you sure prompt.

Jon, If you are not using indicator applet in your panels then you see an icon of empathy in the notification area. not a bug -- empathy can be running without a visible UI https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/570590 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
