Thanks, but that just scrubbed out all messages. Not that I could see all of them anyway.

Updated the firmware and that stopped the reboots but not the conversations problem. Just finished flashing it and that didnt solve it. Could there be a particular file corrupt or something?

All searches so far have been people experiencing the same problem, but saying "ah I fixed it" but they do not say how.

Should I start a new thread? I dont want to de-rail this one

Hi All,

I'm using Reflektorfalke's bubble mod for my IM conversations, because I like the way it resizes to match the length of the text, but the conversation tends to get a bit messy when there are several small messages.

Does anyone have a fix for this? Some way to reserve the whole width of the screen for each message, without the bubble filling the whole width?

mhm... div.message is some levels over the bubble... so i would say adding a min width (over half of the n900 screen resolution -> over 400px) for this higher (invisible) layer could do that in the CSS file:

Code:

div.Message {
  min-width: 600px;
  ...
}

(there should already be some lines in div.Message section. that's why i wrote these dots ... ^^ - please don't add them *G*)

edit: i'm too lazy to try that now - it's nearly 3 o'clock am here in germany..

Did I read that somebody had functional transparency working here? Or was it an image placed and then set as the "background" to the Conversations window with an opacity?

I added "min-width: 400px;" to both div.MessageSelf and div.MessageOther and it looks great now.

Thanks again!

Does anyone have the original HTML file for displaying messages? Maybe if I replaced that it would work????

Also, i dont know linux too well so if somebody could post the commands needed to insert the new HTML file into where it needs to go!! Thanks

yep, someone did it.
for me it didn't work.
but he only added a line "opacity: 0.5;" at the end of the block and it worked...

here are all 9 original files from the html-folder.

just unzip them anywhere in your MyDocs-folder when connected via mass storage mode to your pc. for example make a new folder called "test" and copy them over there.

then unplug the usb-cable and open x-term on your phone. for the first command you need to have "rootsh" installed.

1. sudo gainroot
2. cp MyDocs/test/* /usr/share/rtcom-messaging-ui/html/
(3. rm -r MyDocs/test)

after the second command go to your conversations, open any one, close it and open it again for reloading the layout.

(the third step is only for removing the test-folder with all files it contains)

Hi b666m
Can you help me with the little problem in the IM Conversation ?

I changed it to: me->right and other->left (for hebrew language). Now I have a some problems...

1) I open the IM conversation and the messages jumping to the first message (not to the last like the SMS conversation).

2) Date and clock very close to the text (see picture)

3) How I can put the different color for the other name ?
I see only one block for the name:

Code:

/**
 * the Name field
 */
.MessageNameField {
  word-wrap: break-word;
  color:#4169E1;
  vertical-align: middle;
}

4) How I can do a round corners on the avatar (like in the sms conversation) ?

Thanks

that's a thing of the .js file, not html or css i think.
have you changed something there?

2) Date and clock very close to the text

there you have multiple ways:
add margin-left / -right to div.Message.Self / .Other or the other way around to span.MessageTimeStamp.Self / .Other
(that would be the easiest way. you could do it via html too, but that's not so comfortable)

3) How I can put the different color for the other name ?
I see only one block for the name:

you can always have a look at the html-file. there you will see id= which you can ignore and after that some class-values class=.
for example:
<div> ... class = MessageTimeStamp Other ... </div>
you can use in the css:
div.MessageTimeStamp for both timestamps (self and other because you didn't specify one) or div.MessageTimeStamp.Other for the contact's timestamp (just link the classes with a full-stop in between ^^)

EXAMPLE:

in the html:

Code:

<span id="MessageSenderNameSelf" class="MessageNameField AccentColor2 Self"></span>

so you can add in the css:

Code:

span.MessageNameField.Self {
  color=#0234AB;
...
}

4) How I can do round corners on the avatar (like in the sms conversation) ?

first of all just have a look at the html-classes for im-conversation again:

Code:

<div class="MessageAvatar MessageAvatarSelf"><div id="AvatarImgBorderSelf" class="MessageAvatarBorder Self MessagingAvatarBorderColor"></div>

then you can specify per full-stop-linking:

Code:

div.MessageAvatar {
...
  -moz-outline-radius: 6px;
}
