Notices

I had a feeling they would do that.

Thanks for replying. Is there any way to remove the separator lines for differentiating tweets, or even perhaps changing the style? From "||||||" to something horizontal perhaps?

Is it possible to setup multiple tweet searches and also have them cached. I can use this as I have many keyword search which i can set and load it up when i am in wireless range.

remove the lines? i spent a long time trying to make it give me some kind of separator, through lots of alternate api calls that should have done it, and the current division is the only thing i got working at all. in theory it's all controlled via 'styles' but i have no idea how to make it do anything i want it to do.

if anyone knows how, feel free to provide code examples

i'm not certaing what you mean, but you can perform multiple searches by separating search terms with commas.
eg

#N900, #witter

searches both those terms independantly but shows them in a combined view

currently no support for entirely separate searches, it's an area i'm still thinking about.

Does witter store thumbnail images ffrom users in the timeline? Asking because it doesn't refresh when users change thumbnails..

Yes witter caches avatars, too save on unnecessary data download (this is a mobile device afterall) In theory if it sees the same avatar 10 times in a given use of witter then it should go re-load the avatar from the URL. One way to force this is to load that specific users timeline in the user history view.

Thanks for the tip!

I am using the Extras Testing (0.3.4 I think). I had a look at the version in Extras Devel but had to down grade as the development version froze on me.

It looked great with the changes to the icons; summery of followers and following; GPS location; etc.

Really looking forward to this reaching Extras Testing any idea of time frame ?

excellent. Thanks!

I was thinking it would be contextual and not go to a new screen, but dynamically expand out.

I had them enabled. was kinda jerky (probably a Hildon issue) but also hard to tell what tab you're in. I'd suggest shading the background icons more maybe and maybe looking at longer or more stark transitions
