GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 599229
Can't activate a status from the "Edit Custom Messages" dialogue
Last modified: 2012-01-27 01:19:10 UTC
Today I tried to change my status to Busy: "on the phone" from the tray icon, but it only shows the 5 most-recently-added messages for each status type. Which is fine, I thought, because it also offers a "Custom messages..." option, which opens that dialogue. However, the dialogue only lets you add or delete custom messages, not select one. I was kind of surprised that double-clicking an entry in the list of messages didn't activate it, and that there wasn't an Activate button.
Oh, and it's a modal dialogue, which confused me when I wanted to answer an IM while I had it open to write this bug.
Double clicking lets you edit them. Closing this as WONTFIX because the status icon is going away anyway and the dropdown to change your status is right there.
