I have a few user interface issues with Dialcentral that I've decided to hunt down and fix. Victim #1: In the messages tab, long SMS and voicemail text rolls offscreen and is impossible to read. Double-clicking will bring you to a popup with a tiny scrollbar that makes reading texts also near impossible.
The fix? Two lines of python.
Code:
textrenderer.set_property("wrap-mode",1) textrenderer.set_property("wrap-width",500)
Add these directly below "textrenderer = gtk.CellRendererText()" found on line 840 in gc_views.py.
This makes the lines on the messages tab auto-wrap to the full-screen size, making it possible to read the
entire message
. WOW!
Hopefully epage will acknowlegde my hackery and add it to the new releases. Until some other stuff gets changed* I'm staying with 10.4-2. You'd probably be better off waiting till he adds it in unless you are also using 10.4-2 (the last version before notification support, which broke alarmd).
*sound notification support, auto-load GV contacts(why select drop-down every time??), text size on contacts/recent list bigger (more thumb-friendly)
Oh and btw, a nice shortcut to call numbers via Google Voice is so:
https://www.google.com/voice/m/calle...r=+13606430304
change my number for your own and make bookmarks. As of now, a bookmark is more convenient than the tiny text size on DC's contact list.
