Thinking about Preferences->Events design
I think this page doesn't look too good... There is several levels of indentation, no clear structure, scrollbars, etc... This is chaotic IMHO.
I propose to:
-
Remove "Sound" Column from Listview. There is no need to see, what sound file is currently attached to which event, and if you need to know, you can just see this information in the input box below. With this, we could get rid of the horizontal scrollbar here.
-
It is not clear, into what section "Ignore..." and "Chat state notifications" belong. There is the "visual" section above and the "sound" section below and they just seem not to fit. Maybe they could be moved to a "privacy" tab, and the ignore feature could be improved by allowing a user to have a blacklist of JIDs, possibly with regexp support to block spam-servers at all. The option "Allow OS Information to be sent" from the "Advanced" tab could also go to "Privacy" tab.
-
Is "Notify me about it" clear? Wheres the differince betwen popup, show in roster and only "notify"? After all, popups and roster-thing are notifications as well...
Comments, anyone?
