After all, if you're using the filter box you are searching for something that is not already there, so it is good if the display changes from something optimized for easy clickability to something more dense." 11:21:18 <aleth> ^^ nhnt11 11:27:08 <aleth> Btw, for the search box, I would expect if I enter e.g. "firefox" for all IRC channels with firefox in the name or in the description to show up in the filtered results 11:28:01 <aleth> So a dependence on "#" seems wrong to me (also because IRC doesn't actually require channel names to start with #) 11:31:48 <Mic> aleth: that seems to be the same misunderstanding as clokep had it. 11:32:06 <Mic> # was an example for something that would return almost only IRC channels. 11:32:25 <aleth> Mic: Oh OK :) 11:37:11 <aleth> Ah, I see reading more backlog that flo suggested the same thing I did ;) 11:40:32 <aleth> Mic: What do you think about the buddylist-in-a-tab milestone idea? 11:45:22 <Mic> I think that it's OK to start with that. I wouldn't mind a link or button somewhere to actually show the complete list to allow to discover your contacts. 11:45:51 <aleth> I am a bit concerned that after all the effort to make it work it will get in the way of the UX needed for the awesometab 11:46:19 <aleth> For example, the way it displays things by tag, the ability to drag and drop buddies and merge them, the expansion of contacts etc 11:46:38 <aleth> This is all nontrivial stuff which I would think we don't want in the awesometab later 11:47:11 <aleth> I can see why it would be nice to be able to have the buddy list in an "app tab" of course! 11:47:28 <aleth> But I'm not sure it's that helpful for the awesometab project. 11:47:33 <Mic> The ideas on the new conversation tab are currently revolving a lot around the aspect of "remembering" to find someone and only a little about "recognizing" them, I think we should make sure to cover that as well (beyond the "top contacts" in a grid/list or what you'd call them). 11:48:48 <aleth> What do you mean by "recognize"? 11:49:16 --> iLobster has joined #instantbird 11:54:10 <Mic> To type someone's name you need to remember it correctly, to recognize it it is enough to see it while browsing a list. 11:55:52 <aleth> Right. How about also switching to a more list-like view if the user uses the mousewheel? or a swipe gesture? 11:56:32 <aleth> These are all ways for the user to indicate what she's looking for isn't already there ;) 12:03:18 <-- jb has quit (Ping timeout) 12:04:18 <aleth> Or you could stick with the grid in that case but smoothly show additional entries when scrolling that way. 12:09:26 <-- Mic has quit (Quit: Instantbird -- http://www.instantbird.com) 12:20:48 --> mpmc has joined #instantbird 12:20:59 --> clokep has joined #instantbird 12:20:59 * ChanServ sets mode +o clokep 12:26:31 <aleth> Buildbot is down again :( 12:28:35 * clokep wouldn't mind being able to filter the buddy list. :) 12:30:21 <clokep> Even: ^ ^ 12:32:26 <clokep> Did anyone read nhnt11's weekly update? 12:33:48 <aleth> Yup, sounds like great progress :) 12:34:01 <aleth> But I also think the UX discussions need to be had sooner rather than later ;) 12:34:24 <clokep> Yes. I agree. 12:34:34 <clokep> But I hate discussing UX. :p 12:34:52 <clokep> Well, I hate discussing UI. 12:35:47 <aleth> But you have a couple of things on your wishlist :P 12:35:58 <aleth> That's also input. 12:41:09 <aleth> Mic: Btw, something close to the entries in the awesomebar dropdown was what I was thinking of by "list-like view" 12:41:48 <aleth> i.e. two lines, possibly an userimage or icon to the left, the first line the name, the second the description or status message 12:42:48 <clokep> And bold what matches. 12:42:55 <aleth> Yes :) 12:46:44 <clokep> aleth: That's how I always pictured it, but perhaps I'm just constrained by what I know. 12:47:36 <aleth> It seems a good starting point at least. To make it great I suspect the challenge will be to get the sorting right 12:48:35 <aleth> There may well be a better way, but I think it covers the kind of information we would need to have displayed 12:54:52 <-- Suiseiseki has quit (Ping timeout) 12:56:07 --> Suiseiseki has joined #instantbird 13:04:23 --> skeledrew has joined #instantbird 13:10:23 <nhnt11> aleth: I don't intend to put too much effort into the buddy list view awesometab 13:10:33 <nhnt11> I don't want it to be a full blown replacement buddy-list 13:11:17 <nhnt11> I did do a lot of things I would've need to have done anyway yesterday.

What I mean is different richlistbox item XBLs... 14:02:34 <flo-retina> do we want to include in the list the nicks with whom you frequently have private IRC conversations even though they aren't in your contact list? :) 14:02:58 <aleth> That would be nice ;) 14:03:25 <aleth> But they would look like contacts to the user. 14:03:48 <aleth> (in that list) (assuming we get that presence bug fixed some day) 14:04:14 <flo-retina> btw, I would really like to drop the difference between "start a new conversation with ..." and "show logs for ..." 14:04:43 <flo-retina> this way, the awesome bar would just open the log for the previous conversations with ..., and the new conversation would actually start only when sending a first message 14:04:55 <aleth> flo-retina: I think we all agreed that's wanted :) 14:05:06 <flo-retina> sure 14:05:08 <aleth> But kind of independent of the awesomebar. 14:05:13 <aleth> s/bar/tab 14:05:16 <flo-retina> I'm just thinking that once the awesomebar works, we will want it even more 14:05:54 <aleth> I'm thinking of doing the following when I have a bit of time: 14:06:18 <aleth> 1) Only show N messages in an opened conversation, dynamically load the rest in stages on scroll 14:06:38 <aleth> 2) extend that to adding messages from logs when scrolling past the top of the present conv 14:06:41 <-- chrisccoulson has quit (Ping timeout) 14:06:55 <flo-retina> aleth: that sounds as impossible as what you did with the unread ruler, so I'm pretty sure you can do it! :) 14:06:55 <aleth> 3) ... whatever ;) 14:07:36 <flo-retina> aleth: by "in an opened conversation" did you mean "when reopening from hold", or "at any given time"? 14:08:02 <aleth> flo-retina: I think I can see a way to do it, but I don't like it much, so I have to think about it a bit more 14:08:06 <flo-retina> would be really nice to just show 0 messages in tabs that aren't selected / have never been selected. 14:08:13 <aleth> flo-retina: I meant when opening from hold at first 14:08:28 <aleth> But once the code for that exists.... 14:08:31 <flo-retina> aleth: ok, then "at any given time" is the "3)" then ;) 14:08:55 <aleth> flo-retina: Exactly :) I was just thinking of more or less self contained stages. 14:09:15 <flo-retina> at some point we will also add scrolling to the previous search results, in any previous log ;) 14:09:43 <aleth> That would be awesome :D but we need indexed logs first ;) 14:10:08 <flo-retina> do you think you'll have time for 1) 2) and 3) before I have time for indexed logs? ;) 14:10:41 <aleth> good question :-/ I guess we'll find out ;) 14:10:59 <flo-retina> we also need to refactor some of the logging code to be completely off main thread for its I/Os 14:11:17 <aleth> The difficult thing is doing 1) in a way that is extensible to 3) etc 14:11:20 <flo-retina> and then, we are ready to release 2.0 :) 14:11:50 <aleth> We could give it a codename and then keep changing the codename ;) 14:11:56 <flo-retina> aleth: do you mean "the difficult thing is removing old messages without breaking stuff"? 14:12:08 <aleth> flo-retina: That's a whole extra level of pain 14:12:33 <aleth> I will leave thinking about removing existing messages for later... 14:12:48 <clokep> Removing messages could also help us right now FWIW. 14:13:06 <flo-retina> I think it would be reasonable to intentionally break some edge cases, to make removing old messages easier 14:13:26 <flo-retina> aleth: for some reason I thought removing old messages was the first step of your project 14:13:49 <aleth> flo-retina: No the first step would be just to not display all the messages in the first place. 14:13:53 <flo-retina> aleth: but I guess for you it was adding messages at the top of the log that was the first step :) 14:14:06 --> Mic has joined #instantbird 14:14:06 * ChanServ sets mode +h Mic 14:14:14 <flo-retina> bah, that's step 0, it's trivial :-P 14:14:25 <aleth> flo-retina: Heh, true 14:14:46 <aleth> flo-retina: You're right though, I want to think about it some more for just that reason 14:15:01 <aleth> It may be better to break some things a bit to end up with something more flexible 14:15:42 <flo-retina> aleth: the edge case that seems really annoying to me is if you have an almost infinite number of messages that are grouped together 14:16:07 <aleth> flo-retina: Yes, I'm not worried about breaking that 14:16:28 <Mic> flo-retina: couldn't that be solved by something similar to the unread ruler? 14:16:31 <flo-retina> aleth: so I think it would make sense to add a usually-invisible restriction to isNextMessage to force separating the bubbles (or whatever the them does) every 50 or so messages 14:16:31 <aleth> One of the problems is that message styles expect messages to only ever be added at the bottom. 14:16:56 <Mic> Creating both the new single-message and grouped-new message markup and insert/replace it as needed for the top most message? 14:17:31 <aleth> Mic: Maybe... I think what flo meant was "things not to worry about in the first version of a patch" ;) 14:18:07 <flo-retina> aleth: I really meant, break grouping of more than 50 messages on purpose, so that this edge case doesn't create terrible performance for the algorithm we are adding to remove messages 14:18:47 <flo-retina> Mic: the difference with the unread ruler case is that you know in advance where you'll need to change something later in the DOM. 14:19:06 <aleth> ^^ exactly 14:19:21 * clokep hates the ^^ smiley. 14:19:23 <Mic> That means that the newly inserted nodes needed to be marked to belong to a certain message to be able to find them later 14:19:26 <flo-retina> but maybe we could do what the unread ruler does every 50 or so messages to add 'hooks' that we can use to remove everything before them 14:19:33 <clokep> Mic: Review that trivial patch today? :) 14:19:39 <Mic> ? 14:19:40 <flo-retina> I don't think we need to be able to remove a specific number of old messages 14:19:43 <Mic> clokep: which one? 14:19:52 <flo-retina> we just need to be able to keep the message count between N and N+50 14:19:53 <Mic> The smiley one? 14:19:54 <aleth> clokep: ^ ^ in text is nicer than a smiley 14:19:56 <clokep> Yes. :) 14:21:37 <flo-retina> how are we handling Bubbles' grouped system messages (netsplits!) ? :) 14:21:50 <clokep> Poorly. :( 14:22:05 <clokep> I think we could improve the IRC code around that too though. 14:22:06 <aleth> Btw I will be away until Thursday 14:22:08 <flo-retina> clokep: I meant 'to remove old messages' 14:22:16 * clokep is going outside. 14:22:18 <clokep> Tata. 14:22:21 <-- clokep has quit (Quit: Instantbird 1.5a1pre -- http://www.instantbird.com) 14:22:58 <flo-retina> FYI I'll be in a Talkilla workweek in Paris next week from Monday to Friday, and at a Mozilla French meetup from Friday evening to Sunday evening.
