Group count displays behaving oddly

Description

I've found two oddities with 1.3svn and the displaying of the number of contacts in groups.

1) Toggling "Show All Contacts" automatically hides the number of visible contacts (or perhaps total contacts) for groups. This is perhaps intentional as they are the same, but it left at least me confused wondering why Adium changed a setting without me wanting it to. IMHO it should still say (X of Y), even when X == Y, in order to really show the user that he/she is in fact viewing all contacts.

2) Hiding both the visible count and the total count (with Show All Contacts turned off) correctly hides both counts for expanded groups, but not for collapsed ones. If this is the expected behavior, the menu string should perhaps be changed to reflect this, something like "Hide Expanded Group Visible Count".

  • owner changed from nobody to zacw.
  • milestone set to Adium X 1.3.

I personally disagree with the first one - I think it should remain as is, but I do agree with the second - perhaps the menu item should be labelled "Hide/Show Expanded Group Visible Count"

I just noticed that the first one is being discussed in #9763, as is parts of the second one. The menu string renaming in 2) isn't though.

i don't ever want to see group counts this is not an improvement over past versions when it could be completely hidden.

  • status changed from new to closed.
  • resolution set to fixed.

(In [23985]) Add a HiddenPreferences to hide group counts when collapsed. Use defaults write com.adiumx.adiumx AIHideCollapsedGroupCount -bool YES to hide the count, and defaults write com.adiumx.adiumx AIHideCollapsedGroupCount -bool NO to disable hiding it. Fixes #9986. Closes #9763.
