GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 601354
No way to suppress "Hide new conversations" behavior
Last modified: 2009-11-10 10:23:05 UTC
Steps to reproduce: 1) Start up Empathy 2) Edit->Preferences 3) Look for a "Hide new conversations" checkbox Expected result: I should be able to turn off the "always hide new conversation windows" behavior so that new conversations automatically pop up new windows on my desktop. Actual result: There does not appear to be any way to do this. There is also no hidden gconf setting that I can find to alter this behavior.
Thanks for your report, it looks similar to bug 548754 (Conversations should appear in a new window when started), you will automatically get subscribed to that report. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 548754 ***
