Nope. I come here and check daily if you've squirted out a new release for the day.

And yeah, the text messaging screen still defaults to full screen but messages run off like they didn't before when typing.

History and text messaging displays run off the screen as well.

One other thing that seems consistent outside of all the display issue weirdness... Ever since your QT release, it's been missing the mark on giving off an LED notification, upon a new message arrival, anywhere from I'd say 4 to at least 10% of the time if not higher.

No idea why it seems to flake out so often.

Mind trying out the attached notifier (just overwrite /opt/dialcentral/lib/alarm_notify.py or you can even run it manually) so I can see what it says?

I recently saw the dropped off message on the Messages Tab and had hoped to keep it to test what happened but I ended up needing to do a refresh and the lost messages came back.

Looking at things it seems the cut off text is due to continued issues with the text running past the display limits. Sometimes Qt can be such a pain.

Yeah, there are still a few times where it will wrap correctly, but your previous version was so much better than this current one.

I'll do your notify check right now.

Thank you Ed!

Okay, I have overwritten your alarm_notify.py file, and turned it into an executable.

If I run this in Xterm
/opt/dialcentral/lib/alarm_notify.py
it delays for a few seconds then it takes me back to the command prompt.

No messages are given.

Which previous version are you referring to? A previous build of the Qt-based DC or GTK-based DC?

Life seems like ti was better with GTK. I've been doing a lot of experimentation. I've gotten it so the height always updates on changes for width. I'm seeing strange behavior where I resize the height of the window on the desktop and under certain situations it thinks the columns resized. I think this fake resize is causing it to have the wrong dimensions to calculate the height correctly.

It is recording it all to the notification log file like usual.

I guess version 1.2.22 maybe?

I thought I had one more version before 1.2.28 but I'm not finding it as a download.

Anyway, that has been my favorite release so far.

I don't know Ed, how do I check for this?

I'm still getting LED notifications with your new alarm.py file, but again, it's not always fully reliable.
