Contact list stays hidden and will not reappear after reboot

Reported by: Jay Levitt Assigned to: nobody
Priority: high Milestone: Needs feedback from users
Component: Adium UI Version: 1.2.4
Severity: normal Keywords: contact list hidden edge

Description

This is not a problem with Spaces, Expose, or multiple monitors.

I have a Mac Pro, fresh install of Leopard 10.5.2, fresh install of Adium. I set the contact list to hide on screen edges when Adium is in the background, and it worked... until I rebooted. Now, the contact list stays on the edge, and nothing will bring it back.

Adium seems to think the contact list is at its proper place. Command-slash makes that one-pixel-wode window disappear and return; Expose has no effect. If I drag it back on screen, the proper behavior returns until the next reboot.

I've made sure I'm docking it slightly to the left of the edge, not the right. I'm not sure what else to do for troubleshooting purposes.

Setup: Mac Pro (early 2008), Xeon 8-core 3.2GHz Leopard (non-server) 10.5.2, fresh install 1920x1200 Samsung monitor (SINGLE display) via DVI 16 GB RAM (that doesn't affect this; I just like saying it) 4x 300GB SAS Cheetah 15K.5 in RAID-10 via Areca 1680LP (ditto) Spaces not (yet) enabled

  • priority changed from normal to high.
  • summary changed from 1.2.4: Contact list stays on screen edges after reboot to Contact list stays hidden and will not reappear after reboot.
  • milestone set to Adium X 1.3.

There's already two other contact list 'staying stuck' off the screen issues in the 1.3 milestone. Each of them has slightly different settings, so I don't know if this is a duplicate of one of those or not, so I'm going to leave this as a separate ticket for now. The other two are #6471 and #7412

I'm going to set the priority of this one high, with the hopes that whoever fixes this will also plan to fix the other two (which is easy if they happen to all be the same problem).

Does this continue to occur while using 1.2.5?
