[gaim-migrate @ 14436] SF Patch #1356575 from Kevin Stange (SimGuy) "This patch moves buddy pounces out of the menu and into a new dialog, as suggested by Sean. I'm not ready to say this is finished, but it's a solid starting point and it does work. I changed the namespacing a little from gaim_gtkpounce to gaim_gtk_pounce to be consistent with the rest of Gaim. I wanted to try to get more information into the pounce manager, but I wasn't sure how to display it. I thought perhaps a column containing a row of icons representing which events are being watched (so the user can see which of several pounces for the same buddy are which), however, while I know how to do this, there aren't icons in Gaim suitable for representing all the events. Like "returned from away" and "idle/unidle", as far as I can see. I'm not sure what else could be shown to make the manager dialog more "informative." The dialog updates automatically to show pounces only for connected accounts and updates when a pounce is added, changed, or removed in some other way than the dialog. I'd like to get feedback on it if anyone has anything they think I should change or fix, I'll do that and update this patch. Otherwise, feel free to commit. :)" As ridingpigs commented in the tracker, this is "far better than the current menu thing." I made a few small changes to this. I believe most of them were related to adding hooks to disable things if there were no accounts connected. I also sorte d the Tools menu a bit and updated the docklet to match. I wish the plugin action code could sort the items it added. committer: Tailor Script <tailor@pidgin.im>
