Make the same height of a banner for all chat tabs

[avb@…]

Hello,

I little annoying thing is that chat tabs which has avatar and have nothing except of nickname (no avatar and no status) have different banner height.

Maybe it will be better to make it fixed to 35pix and resize avatar to 32x32?

I can provide a patch is it needed

see chat_avatar_height / width ACE options. isn't it enough ?

[avb@…]

partly yes. Banner height for chat with a contact with avatar and contact with nickname and status is the same. But height on chat with a nickname only and a contact with avatar or contact with nickname and status is different.

i agree. a fixed banner height would be better than the current state.

why not, but it's not so easy. it depends on number of lines in status message. One workarround could be, if one line status message: fixed height, else variable height (most ppl have one line message).

but it also depends on font height in banner. and I don't know a workarround for that ...

There is no reason for showing exactly two status lines in chatbanner. We can never be sure that there aren't anymore.

Just think of:

$LongFirstLine LINEBREAK

• Show only one status line in chatwindows, indicate when it is shortened
