Random suggestions...

 - Change the colour of the word ("Online", etc) when invisible, so that
   the change is more noticeable.
 - Replace the icon with the Invisible icon but keep the word.
 - Replace the word with "Invisible" but keep the icon for the current state.
 - Have both the real icon and the Invisible icon.

Windows ICQ cannot do this. Either you're invisible OR away OR available
etc., it can't be combined. That makes me think that the ICQ server
doesn't support it either...

In licq you can combine the normal status with the invisible status. for 
example you can be away+invisible or DND+invisible or online+invisible. you 
cannot simply represent those combinations with only one icon.

but in fact i don't know how windows icq does handle this, i have no 
screenshot of such and i have no windows here to try it on my own.

Why not just show the invisible status icon, like Windows ICQ does?

Then I'd like to apologize for crying over something that is not a
problem. I was too dumb to recognize this :) The way of showing
invisibility is correct, only my eyes were too weak to see the
difference by default :)

Thank you for your fast and kind help!

bye,
Botond

I don't seem to have this problem and I am using Xandros, which is mostly 
Debian "Sarge" and KDE and I have not noticed this problem, nor did I have it 
on Debian Sarge.

This separator is there by design.
After clicking on the "invisible" menu-item you should notice that your 
current status becomes surrounded by parentheses, this means you are now 
invisible.
Doing it again makes you visible again and removes the parentheses.

If you have an idea how to make the effect of beeing invisible more clearly 
shown, please don't hesitate to tell us :)

Thomas

Hello Botond,
i have no idea how this menu-item could be "unavailable". Does this mean, it 
is greyed out?

There is no code in licq which disables this menu item... hm.
Does the shortcut "ALT+I" work to make you invisible/visible?
Can you give us a screenshot of your problem?

Dear Thomas,
Sorry for the late answer. No, it is not greyed out, only separated by a 
separator line in the bottom of the list.. selectable, but selecting it 
nothing happened. Screenshot will be sent as soon as possible.

[Licq-main] invisible status

2004-07-20 Thread Botond Vasarhelyi
Dear All,
I've got a problem about the invisible status. Being more precise, 
somehow I cannot make it work. It is separated in the status-selection 
menu and unavailable due to some reasons. Could anyone give some advice 
about how to make it work?

I am nearly sure that this thing has already been discussed before, but 
I am new.

Anyway.. if it is relevant, I use a Debian with KDE and complied LICQ 
with KDE support.

Thanks for any efforts,
Botond
