Gajim - 2023-12-28

fjklp, go ahead

chili-b: Thanks for reporting the steps to reproduce this. It's on the tracker now.

Does anyone use gajim on tails here? I wanna figure out how to setup persistence

Is there a way to make the "chat list" panel not pop back on when switching workspace ?

I want to put each of my channels in a separate workspace, so that I could only click the workspace icon and not have to ever interact with the chat list panel

Because right now, every single time I change "channel" it is a 3 click affair.

hello, where is the setting to turn of message sync in gajim?

If there is no option its ok

You can disable that messages are stored on the server

> Because right now, every single time I change "channel" it is a 3 click affair. sounds like a bug

It's 2 clicks

As intended

> You can disable that messages are stored on the server where would that option be ↺

and do other clients have similar options?

like dino and conversations?

1. click workspace, 2. click chat, 3, click hide chat icon

This is sort of necessary currently since gajim does not return to the last used chat in a workspace, so you have to select one

What? Hide chat icon?

I mean hide chat list, my mistake

That's not a necessary step to switch chat

I think he wants to stay in that type of view

I don't know, maybe this is beyond the scope of the intended design

ctrl +n, type, enter

faster and no clicks at all

Immaculate Taste, thats a setting that is for all devices

means the server will not store messages from any device

lovetox: even dino?

yes

Oh

Its a global setting

and only in single chats

you cant turn this off for groupchats ✏

Where can i turn of server stored msgs in dino

i dont think you can

> you cant turn this off for groupchats Like this one?

> i dont think you can Dino moment

Accounts -> Advanced -> Archiving Preferences

Thanks so much lovetox

though this will, obviously hinder messages syncing between devices

so this means you will not have the same messages anymore on all devices

> Accounts -> Advanced -> Archiving Preferences Gajim right?

yes

> so this means you will not have the same messages anymore on all devices Yeah im keeping it on

It is 3 click because I need to close the chatlist as my gajim window is not wide enough for both chatlist and actual chat

It would be great if, for workspaces that only contain one chat, it would just open that chat, instead of opening the chatlist and making me click on the one chat

Then, I could have many, one chat workspace and switching between chats would be a one click operation. And if I could bind, ctrl+pageup/down to next/previous workspace, then I could use mouse button 4/5 to switch between workspaces !

so what you want is a smaller chatlist

if you want to work with shortcuts you simply put all chats into one workspace and switch chat with shortcuts

I rather have no chatlist, here is what my window looks like with chatlist closed

yeah ... a workspace is not a chatlist

you have multiple ways of switching chat with shortcuts, without a chatlist

use it, we dont design Gajim for a smartphone sized screen

Ok, well is there a way to disable the multiple workspaces and have the left vertical row be the chatrooms ?

what if we allowed the chat list to be resized to a minimum width of zero?

then you dont see notifications anymore

then you could either do the workaround you are doing with one chat per workspace, which is minimum width and shows mention indicators for every chat, or you can set the chat list to only show the chat icon, which a bit wider but more in line with the current intentions

that option seems kind of easy and very adaptive

I say easy without really knowing what has to be changed :) maybe it's a bit more complex than setting min_width=0

hm i dont think its possible

the paned widget resizes the widgets, makes them smaller

but it can only be done for widgets which can shrink

like a text field with ellipsize

i dont think icons can be shrinked

its probably simpler to add a mode where all widgets except the avatar are hidden

lovetox, I don't see the notification in chatlist in my case, since it's always minimized, The workspace also have notifications

I don't need to see the chatlist ever, if I have only one chat per work space

I don't know how the code is structured, but if it could just not change the chatlist display state upon change of workspace, and not unselect the current open chat when changing workspace (maybe internally it would join the last joined chat ?) (or auto join the chat, if the workspace only has one chat)

Hi all. Has anyone encountered, with a clean installation of gajim, on Windows 10 and 11 it immediately freezes upon startup?

version 1.8.4

hm i think there was a person who had that problem

https://gajim.org/downloads/1.8/

maybe try 1.8.1 and see if it goes away

> hm i think there was a person who had that problem Let's wait. Maybe he found a solution to this problem

> maybe try 1.8.1 and see if it goes away Thank you. I'll try

ah wait ✏

there was some dll problem .. maybe try the nightly?
