Hi Youness, > in your menus, it's too unclear, too many options, It's one option LESS than what there is now, two if you count the submenu, and that's with two new features. If you don't count the new features, my proposal includes four LESS options. > and the 'group by user group' wtf is that?

I'll answer yours too.. group by group isn't beautiful indeed which is why we should keep it as 'sort by' the group offline contacts together is good but I don't want to code that, it's a little bit complicated since we use one variable for sorting, and we would need to divide it into two varia

I'm late to this thread as well, and I find the new sorting options confusing :S The way I see this is as follows. From a design standpoint, there are a few decisions that are mostly orthogonal and therefore should be presented as orthogonal to the user (the way "hybrid mode" works now actually af

maybe I'm a bit late in this thread, but I hadn't a definite opinion, now that I begun translating the new keys related to it, I konw: - I like the submenu idea - I don't think the menu entries reflect their behaviour. - I would suggest: Contact sorting and grouping -> Group by status (with "r

One thing I would suggest as a change as well is in the actual ordering of statuses. In my opinion, the Idle and Away statuses should be grouped together. They're almost the same in terms of what they mean, so I think they should be together. On 1/13/07, Youness Alaoui <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >

2007-01-13 Thread Youness Alaoui
