Hiya guys,

This isn't an "I want this", "I want that", "this is wrong" type list since I'm very aware of the alpha status of this software, but I figured if I didn't record the little trivial bits somewhere it'd just be up luck as to whether they made it into the polished final. So, all three really relate to the "Last online" time, but none of them seemed worthy of a full jira post. If you'd like me to add any of them to the bug tracker (if it's easy for you to keep an eye on) I'd be happy to... 5:)

* The currently selected user (whose full contact card you can see) doesn't get a tooltip showing the last time they were online.
* The last online time now says "Today" or "Yesterday" but these don't get updated when midnight comes around, unless the user comes back online.
* The text jumps around a bit (depending on the length of the contact name and whether it displays "Today" or anything else).
* This one's just a personal request, but the tooltips don't adhere to local time display settings. I don't know where those'd be kept, but I much prefer 24 hour displays (and it's particularly confusing when AM/PM displays show things like 07:30 PM, because the leading 0 tricks you into thinking it's 24 hours).

That's all I've got for now, and it doesn't need a reply, as I say, just minor enhancements. Otherwise the functionality seems pretty much in place (I finally got the hang of the missed events display), and I'm really impressed. Keep up the great work, I look forward to the Beta! 5:)

This was andy's sloppy coding smile.png I fixed it in subsequent builds, so you'll see it ok in beta.

As for the others - no any guarantee it can make it into the beta, but i'll keep them in mind for final (especially if you DO file it to JIRA, really).

Hehehe, thanks for the reply. I've added the top two to Jira, the middle one felt a bit too picky (and will probably change when the others do anyway). Thanks again, keep up the great work... 5;)
