Gajim - 2025-07-26

there is an issue with the search feature: Searching for message contents works, but when you click on a search result to jump to it in the chat history, it will sometimes jump to the wrong position. The problem seems to be that the scroll offset it jumps to doesn't initially consider the size of images and other attachments. Is this known?

Most of the time, you end up having to click on the result a second time after the attachments have updated the layout in order to scroll to the correct position

Yes it's known

Do we want to add an option for Gajim's Windows version, which prevents Recall from taking screenshots? Looks like it can be easily done: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/client-management/manage-recall#allow-recall-and-snapshots-policies > By setting the flag WDA_EXCLUDEFROMCAPTURE, the window content won't show up in Recall or any other screenshot application. and here's some sample code: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/78466516/pywin32-do-setwindowdisplayaffinity-is-not-avaliable

That's what Brave and Signal do.

Yes but not with pywin32

don't we use this already?

what would you use instead?

There's at least one line, where pywin32 is pulled in: https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/blob/master/gajim/common/helpers.py#L69

We try to use winrt where possible

> There's at least one line, where pywin32 is pulled in: https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/blob/master/gajim/common/helpers.py#L69 that line is from ages ago :D

I digged deep to find it :)

i.e. this part in helpers should be updated in the future to use winrt instead?

I don't think this code is used at all

It was for jingle, I think

alright, there are many jingle leftovers indeed
