Description Nicolò Chieffo 2009-06-18 13:38:16 UTC 
currently when I open a chat window it is really small, and if the contact list is shown it's extremely difficult to read messages.
I propose a bigger default size: 500x300

bigger chat window patch

I don't know if this is enough because in the c file there are a lot of resize calls.
but with this patch applied I don't get problems with windows size

This apply for private chat windows too right? Not only the muc ones?
Comment 4 Nicolò Chieffo 2009-06-23 11:14:02 UTC 
Yes, both. Anyway I think that both should be set bigger, in the GtkTextView part.
Comment 5 Danielle Madeley 2009-07-17 09:52:09 UTC 
Can we maybe move the window size into the theme? I dunno.
