Xmonad and pidgin conversation windows

Hi
Not sure if this is a Pidgin related problem, but I'm trying to get urgencyhook to work with new conversation windows in Pidgin - it doesn't trigger an urgent before I focus the conversation window and send a new message (from another workspace.. text based MSN client).
So basicly this is what's happening..
I write "Open new window please.." and a new conversation window is opened on workspace "im" - if I go to the "im" workspace and focus the conversation window, then go back to workspace 3 "code", and type another message.. I receive the urgent notification.
Anyone had this problem? I would love it to notify when opening a new conversation window. Using the "Message Notification" plugin for Pidgin.

Incredibly fast.. this post is already on Google hehe.
Ok, so.. I edited the notify plugin (Message Notification), in src/src/pidgin-2.7.0/pidgin/plugins/ to print a debug message whenever a conersation window was opened, and it does:
(17:47:30) gtkspell: Failed to setup GtkSpell: enchant error for language: en_US.UTF-8
(17:47:30) gtkconv: setting active conversation on toolbar 0x983b110
(17:47:30) gtkconv: setting active conversation on toolbar 0x983b110
(17:47:30) prefs: /pidgin/conversations/toolbar/wide changed, scheduling save.
(17:47:31) notify: ***** CONVERSATION CREATED *****
(17:47:31) prefs: /pidgin/conversations/im/y changed, scheduling save.
static void
conv_created(PurpleConversation *conv)
purple_conversation_set_data(conv, "notify-message-count",
GINT_TO_POINTER(0));
purple_debug_misc("notify", "***** CONVERSATION CREATED *****\n");
/* always attach the signals, notify() will take care of conversation
* type checking */
attach_signals(conv);
Uhm, so.. it should notify, and it's being triggered. The problem must lie somewhere else.

Bug Report: New conversation window stills the sys...

Bug Report: Skype Desktop: New conversation window stills the system/keyboard focus.
When the UI is in multi-window mode and a conversation window pops up (due for example to a newly received chat message), that window steals the system/keyboard focus, even though it appears in a minimized state in the Windows taskbar. And this should not happen by default, because it is impractical (especially for screen reader users). And it didn't happen in Skype 6.21 and earlier. But since the new UI was introduced officially in Skype 7.0, it started happening constantly.
Steps to reproduce it:
1. From "View" menu, activate the "Split Window View", if it is not already enabled.
2. From Tools -> Options -> IM & SMS -> IM settings, enable "Open a new window when I receive a new message in Split Window View", if it is not already enabled.
3. From Tools -> Options -> Advanced, activate "Enable accessible mode", if it is not already enabled.
4. Activate the "Save" button, to save the changes.
5. Close all windows, related to Skype. You may keep only the main window opened.
6. Move the system focus to another application.
7. Tell someone to send you a chat message. When the message arrives and the conversation window pops up minimized in the Windows Taskbar, everything seams to be as it should. A few seconds after that however, the system/keyboard focus gets moved to that new conversation window, even though it is neither restored/maximized (it is minimized), nor it is visible on the screen (except as a button in the taskbar).
Actual results:
When a new conversation window pops up in the Windows taskbar, it stills the system/keyboard focus to itself from the currently focused application.
Expected results:
Skype's popping up new conversation windows should not still the system/keyboard focus to themselfs from the currently focused application.
Test environment:
- Operating system: Windows 8.1 Pro N, 64-bit, in Bulgarian with all locale settings set to "Bulgarian".
- Skype version: 7.0.0.102 for Desktop.

This is a known problem, but Skype have not given us an estimated time for a fix.
Traditionally, Skype updates have been roughly monthly, so we are due a new version sometime soon. Many of us here are hoping that is has a bunch of fixes for the UI, the focus problem being one of them.

IMessage beta loose all saved conversations when I open and close a window.

iMessage beta looses all saved conversations when I open and close a window.

I thought it was doing that also. But I found that if I start a new chat with someone I was messaging before, then the old messages re-appear in the messages window.

Disabling status message and conversion Window

Is it possible to completely disable the conversion window that appears when I want to print something to a .pdf file. I can press I button to hide the window, but have to do that every time the window appears. Also, after the document has been converted a status message appears in my task bar for a couple of seconds. I'm also interested in disabling that. Can anyone help

Hi,
I had encountered this too.
When you make a set_window_property(FORMS_MDI_WINDOW,window_state,maximize); this is not really a maximize but forms takes the whole available space of the screen. that's why your status bar is partially hidden by the windows taskbar
If you take a look at the buttons controlling the window, you will see that the button for maximizing the window is not in the state maximized.
If you click on it then you will really maximize the window and the status bar will appear normally with the taskbar under it.
If you click form minimizing the window, it will again take the whole space...
A workaround is to play with the FORMS_MDI_WINDOW width an height after you have set the window_state to maximize.
Hope this helps
Regards
Jean-Yves

Pidgin MSN window close

I remember the old gaim would always say "<user> has closed the conversation window" if using the MSN protocol. It wasn't immediate, it really just checked if the window was still open at the other end once every minute... still I miss that feature.
I installed all the plugins in pidgin-plugin-pack that looked promising including the psychic one, but that did not enable it. Are there any options, plugins or source code patches that accomplish this?

Oh wow, so is inactivity defined as not typing at all? Because I can just discover when that happens by watching the typing symbol (unless that person also uses gaim and turns this notification off). What about clicking various things in the conversation window but not actually typing... does this count as inactivity? I thought it could tell the difference between when someone wasn't there and when someone was ignoring you, but I guess I was wrong, thanks for clarifying.

4.7EEx1.10 to ECC6.0 upgrade and Unicode conversion

Hi Experts,
We are going to initiate the upgrade from next month onwards. Subsequently i have started preparing the plan and strategy for the same.
As our current setup is 4.7EEx110/Win 2003 R2-64 bit/Oracle 10.2.0.4.0 (Non unicode). And we have recently migrated on to this setup from WIn2k 32 bit. Also the current hardware is Unicode compatible.
With respect to strategy for achieving this Upgrade and Unicode conversion, i am planning as follows.
Step 1) Perform Unicode conversion on the current landscape (Both Export/import on the same servers)
Step 2) Setup Temporary landscape as part of Dual maintenance strategy and migrate data from the current systems to temporary systems using backup/restore method.
Step 3) Perform the SAP version upgrade on the current landscape and setup transport routes from temporary to current landscape in order to keep it in sync
Step 4) after successful upgrade, decommission the temporary landscape
Please provide your suggestions and valuable advices if there is anything wrong with my strategy and execution plan.
Regards,
Dheeraj

Hi,
Thanks. As i have already referred these notes as i am seeking advise with respect to my upgrade approach.
However i have planned to perform in the following manner.
1) Refresh Sandbox with Prod data and perform Upgrade to ECC6.0 EHP5 & subsequently Unicode conversion on the same server (Since both export & Import has to perform on the same hardware as we have recently migrated on this hardware which is Unicode compatible)
2) Setup temporary landscape for DEv & QAs and establish transport connection to Production system in order to move urgent changes
3) Keep a track of the changes which have transported during upgrade phase so that the same can be implemented in the upgraded systems i.e. Dev & QAS
4) After Sandbox Migration and signoff, we will perform Dev & QAS upgrade & unicode conversion on the same hardware (Note: Since these are running on VMware can we export the data from the upgraded system and import on to a new VM?)
5) Plan for production cutover and Upgrade the Prod system to ECC6.0 Ehp5 and then Unicode conversion. As i am planning to perform upgrade over the weekend and then Unicode conversion activity in the next weekend (Is it a right way?)
My Production setup: DB on one Physical host and CI on separate Virtual host
6) After the stabilization phase, we are planning for OS & DB upgrade as follows:
a) Windows upgrade from 2003 R2 to Windows 2008 R2
b) Oracle Upgrade from 10.2 to 11.2
If anyone thinks that there is anything wrong with my above approach and need changes then please revert.
I have one more doubt as I am going to upgrade 4.7EEx110 (WAS 620, Basis SP64) to ECC6.0 EHp5.As I presume that I can straight away upgrade from the current version to ECC6.0 Ehp5 without installing EHP. Kindly confirm
Thanks

Format/hyperlink certain text in the conversation window using an API plugin

Hi, I want to format/hyperlink certain text and make it clickable in the conversation window of Lync. The click itself will execute a Desktop application.
Is this possible via an API plugin and is there example code on how to manipulate the conversation window?
Thanks!

Hi wyatt biker,
To ensure you get better support, I suggest you turn to our Lync Development forum for dedicated support.
With the assistance provided there, it is more likely the issue can be resolved. Sorry for any inconvenience this caused. Thanks for your understanding.
Best regards,

Need HDV encoding for backup and encoding in windows.

Need HDV codex for PC. rather than caputre back to tape then onto my PC with ASpect HD.
I would like to encode a project and store it on my pc with little to no loss in quailty. Is there any type of codex that will keep te HDV quailty but plays and encodes with WINDOW MEDIA ENCODER? and what are the settings?
I have done this with DV footage by going to export - Useing quicktime conversion: settings avi -Options - DVCPro. I can't seem to do them same useing HDV. I think the new FC6 can do this. but how?
thnaks for your help
Message was edited by: skatesurferdude

You would need a utility that will encode to your desired format (AVI?). Such utilities would be Sorenson Squeeze, Autodesk Cleaner and Compression Master. Copy it to the Windows system after encoding. And yes, it will take a very long time unless you have a node cluster (render farm) of some sort so you are probably better off sending it back to tape and capturing it natively on the PC if you are wanting to work on the footage there. If you are just wanting to play the video on the PC then encode it.

In conversation window, which calls are incoming a...

Hi: On the Skype conversation window, I've got a list like this under a number for someone I've been trading messages with. Under "Today," here's what appears:
Call 39 seconds
Call 16 seconds
Call – no answer
Call 47 seconds
But are those incoming or outgoing calls? They're not marked either way, and I can't tell whether the person called and didn't leave a message the last time around. (When I was using Windows, this was crystal clear.) Thanks a lot.

Hello milaj. Sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues in your area with service. No recent issues reported in the area. Let's see if we can help improve your reception. milaj, what make/model phone do you use? Is the service experience similar both indoors and outdoors?

New conversation windows start minimized?

Is there a way to make Skype act like a more traditional IM client, so that every time someone sends me a message, the conversation window pops up?
I am using Skype in Compact Mode and I have selected the "Open a new window when I receive a new message in compact view" option under the IM settings. Yet whenever someone sends me an message, the new chat window opens up minimized to the taskbar. This means it's quite easy to miss incoming messages since the only cue you get is the skype taskbar icon blinking orange.
So, is there a way to have the new conversations pop up and start maximized?

This seems to be because of the default view in skype now which keeps conversations and contacts in the same window. If you want your new conversations to pop up in a new window as they used to you will need to switch to a classic split view instead. You can do this under the View menu by selecting the 'Split Window View' menu item. Once set new conversations will pop up in their own window as expected

If I invoke the app via the ConversationWindowActions it opens up in the browser and the "Multiparty Session" session type sends an appINVITE SIP message sent to participants.
But I want it to come up as a Conversation Window Extension. Can do this if I invoke the ConversationWindowContextual. Great!
But the trouble is I want it to be a "Multiparty Session" and have an appINVITE SIP message sent to participants.
And that doesn't happen.

So I have the two pieces working independently (ie "Multiparty Session" / "Lync Conversation Window Extension"). I need them working together.

Hey guys. Am really excited to integrate with and extend lync.
Have spent a huge amount of time researching.
But really struggling with this.
Really need some help from Microsoft on this one.

Xmonad and focus follows mouse issue

I've been fiddling around with xmonad, and I notice that with focus follows mouse turned on, when I create a new window the window under the mouse gets selected instead of the window that I have just created. Pretty irritating, Anyone know how to solve that?
Thanks for any help provided,
Kruppe

Yes, disabling the focus follows mouse behaviour makes it so the correct window is always chosen.
I kind of like having focus follows mouse for when I need to copy and paste in applications that don't provide good methods for doing that purely with the keyboard (firefox and most terminals when not using screen). I would therefore like to have focus follows mouse.
Sidenote: What is this updatePointer thing you use and what does it do?

FireFox Hello does not open conversation window after partner joined

When I initiate a conversation and my partner joins, I can hear a sound and get a notification, but the conversation window does not change. That means it does not open the larger chat window.
If I then press the Hello button and select the conversation, pressing the link does nothing.
If I then copy&paste the conversation link in a new FireFox tab, I get the chat window, BUT it asks me to "join the conversation". If I do so, it simply says there are already 2 people in the conversation.
It seems to work fine, when somebody else initiates the conversation.
I've disabled all add-ons, except no-script, which I set to accept all scripts. I have no other FireFox versions installed.

Thanks for getting back at all!
It doesn't work with 36.0.4, too.
When I use the Browser Console and press the HELLO button for the first time, I get the following two errors:
''Content Security Policy: The page's settings blocked the loading of a resource at self ("default-src jar:// about: file: chrome:"). about:loopconversation

When I initiate a conversation and try to respond on the other computer, I also get a very long error:
