Unfortunately a pretty common spam/annoyance online is putting "spam"
via abusing Unicode symbols - which is used for multilingual support -
in display names. This typically results in an unreadable word jumble in
our UI, which looks bad.
So I decided to put a stop to that by clipping some labels that could be
used for this crap. I didn't cover *everything* yet, but this at least
prevents these idiots from showing up in the completion menu, the room
member list and as authors for messages.
In other messaging applications (e.g. Discord) this is possible through
text modifiers like "from:@user". We don't support that, and I'm not
super keen on implementing yet-another-parsing-thing, so an action in
the user detail dialog should work for now.
Very useful to sift through large rooms but when you only care about a
specific person's messages (maybe your own?)
This was added recently to Purpose, and it's not too useful for us.
We already have a bunch of better, more integrated ways to copy
events to the clipboard.
The menus have always been split into a menu for file-like content and text-like content
This split makes some things a bit more complicated then necessary.
Relevant fixes hidden behind some refactoring:
- set m_lastRoomConfig per-user while setting the connection
- fold m_lastSpaceConfig into m_lastRoomConfig
- set current room to empty explicitely when there is no room
It still looks generally the same, except now:
* It doesn't take up the full width of the window (this was a mistake.)
* It now nicely fades in and out.
* It uses Kirigami's built-in OverlayZStacking object instead of
hardcoding a Z of 20.
* A border is now added which helps make it stand out compared to the
chat bar, which it frequently is on top of.
* The seemingly unused accessibility string is removed.
We were specifically missing WAITINGFORKEY and WAITINGFORACCEPT, which
does happen and could be delayed - resulting in a blank screen for a few
seconds.
CCBUG: 508483
This menu providers a few text editing related functions, like undo/redo, copy, paste, etc.
As far as I can tell, it never worked in a useful way, though: It operates on the activeFocusItem,
but as soon as one clicks on the menu, this becomes null. It is somewhat useable through shortcuts,
but the text fields have these shortcuts natively.
