[Bug 1071345] Re: empathy contacts list compact mode is missing in 3.6

 

@vaab Is it possible to place a pull request here on Lauchpad? Or could
you prepare a .patch to fix this issue on the development branch, and
attach it to this bug report?

That's scary! We're having late 2015, and this bug is still present in
14.10.3 LTS, even though a solution is know in detail. (Can anyone
anyone confirm this problem is visible in 15.04 and 15.10 too?)

Title:
  empathy contacts list compact mode is missing in 3.6

Status in Empathy:
  Confirmed
Status in empathy package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Prior to upgrading to quantal, Empathy had a compact mode for the
  contacts list.  This would show each contact on a single line that was
  just tall enough to display the contact's username.  This way, I would
  be able to use my high resolution monitor to view all of my online
  contacts simultaneously.

  Under Empathy 3.6 on quantal, the option for a compact mode
  disappeared and each contact in the list takes about 3 times the
  vertical space needed to display the contact's username.  Now even
  with my high resolution montor, I can only view about 1/3 of my online
  contacts at a time.

  Please bring back the compact mode.
