More Colors for Chat Messages #3092

It is a good idea to make the Chat Colorful. But i wonder if a User has Joined or left the Channel or Server it has the same Color or no color. And if some one has Kicked or banned it's the same Color.

I think that is an issue. Because i don't want always read the text on the Chat Log to understand what is going on. With a Color for what is happening it would be easier to read.

I played with this idea a little bit. Is this mockup similar to what you were thinking about @Chris2000SP ? connected disconnected blue mod @mkrautz Is there a standardized color scheme for events of different classes. I noticed bold red for permissions issues and two others in https://github.com/mumble-voip/mumble/blob/master/src/mumble/Log.cpp#L242 but they seem to just be making use of existing functions of the chat.

@robozman your pic has a lot of BLUE colored words that could have more colors. Such like 'disconnectded' in RED 'connected' in LIME GREEN and 'left channel' in PURPLE. It means only to get more colors to play with for skin makers and it would be clear to see if i search without reading the whole and long log.
