#1 KRN Issues

[Anonymous]

Resize of search results window doesn't give me any more space to look at list.
List stays same size.

When posting a followup. Took me a while to find the button, it should be the
icon that Kmail uses for 'reply'.

Also, icons should use standard system XPMs for back, forward, filefloppy
(save), print, and (reply by) mail. That way, if people use their own icons,
or develop them (like me), their icons will show up here without extra
searching and replacing (and updating of my script). The only systemwide icon
that it uses in the newsgroup window is the "New" icon (post new article).

When posting a followup. Uses the same thing in the "followup to" field as the
"newsgroup" field. There is no subject field? If I change followup to to a
subject, it will not send successfully.

Can I please make some better KRN-specific icons?

all in all, it's getting better. Keep up the good work!

On what search result window? Group or article?

No. This is intentional. A followup and a reply are
different things.

That is mainly historical cruft, since KRN uses these icons
since before there were system-wide versions.

Easy to fix, I\'ll do it for next version.

This is the default. You can change the followup-to
by editing it in the composer.

There is one here. If I click on followup, I get
Subject: Newsgroups: and Followup-To: fields.

I don\'t understand this. followup-to has nothing to do with
subjects. It\'s a list of newsgroups. If you put something
else, the message is malformed and won\'t send.

Go ahead. If you want a CVS account in sourceforge, register
in www.sourceforge.net and let me know

PS: it\'s easier if you make individual bug reports for
each problem. Now this will have to stay open until I fix them all :-P
