"Horizontal Rule" not displayed for ungrouped icons

Description

As it says, this feature is not displayed if you use ungrouped icons.

On a side note, I dislike "ungroup icons" ungrouping ALL of the icons. I would much prefer the FONT icons remain grouped and the insert icons ungrouped.

The 'ungroup icons' option will probably be removed in the next version. Right now, the font-icons are grouped under 'Font', there's a 'Smiley' button, and the rest of the 'insert' items are in another group. I think it looks much nicer this way.

The issue of a missing horizontal rule button when Ungrouped still isn't fixed as of 2.4.3, even though the Ungroup Feature remains.

Is this still an issue for 2.5.0?

Changed 19 months ago by BladeOfLight16

Yes, it is. I could post a screenshot, but I don't see much point.

What is ungroup icons? In the buddy list or conversation window or where? Just trying to work out if this ticket is still an issue.

This is still an issue, actually.I have attached tow images to help clarify the issue. This is all in the conversation window.

The first image (Ungrouping_Menu.png) shows where you should rick click to obtain the context menu that allows you to ungroup icons.

The second image (Ungrouped_Icons.png) shows what the icons look like when ungrouped.

In grouped mode, the Insert menu contains a Horzontal Rule function. However, in ungrouped mode, there is no button to replace that functionality. In other words, the fix is simply to add a button in the ungrouped mode.

Ugh. Sorry for all the typos. I didn't proofread.

Hm. I guess that we should stop using the term "icons." It doesn't appear in the program itself, and they really aren't icons in any kind of typical meaning that I'm familiar with. Pidgin calls them "Items", but the clearest term I can think of for the purposes of this discussion would be "buttons."
