Licq message popup

[nobody]

When user is in the process of typing of some message it is a good idea not to pop up the message from the different user in the different window over that one.

Would be better if the other incoming message will stay behind the current one. At least to have the option for that in settings.

Reason: if to use LICQ extensively and send/receive a lot of messages sometimes user does not look @ the message and part of it maybe typed into the other user's window and then sent to the wrong user.

This actually happened inadvertently couple of times.

Another annoying thing (related to this) is when the message box pops up ontop of the licq contacts list. this is fine until someone sends you a message, and all of a sudden you can't see what you're typing, because it's below Licq. Licq doesn't seem to remember where to put new message boxes on the screen.

Sure. Is better show the msg in the same window. Or will open a lot of popup msg for the same user! Tnx.

It would be nice if, in general, the automatic message popup did not put the new window in focus. That way you can keep working while reading the incoming messages. The current auto popup mode that puts the new window in focus is probably more dangerous than useful.

Replying to petere78:

From r5459 on, this behaviour is configurable. Since I can see no other issue in this ticket to fix, I close it.
