Preference Panel settings #184

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

I have a different vision for what the preferences panel should be like.
I'm starting to see that if we make it as customizable as we want, we are
going to have a LOT of options. Laying them out in sets of checkboxes and
radio buttons seems ridiculous in the long-term.

Lets switch all the preference panels to use listviews instead of custom
designed stuff. Not only will it be better for us in the long run, it will
be better for users.

I'm not sure about listviews being better for users. With custom layout you can
aggregate entries into logical groups. In listview it will be just a big 
unreadable
blob of characters, where it will be very difficult to find entries you want.

Yeah I've revised my thinking here.

One problem we have left is the treeview's dependency on the contact list 
treeview we
are using. The problem with that is that the Icons are all indented too much. 
We have
tried to change it, but it just wont stick. Very frustrating.

Closing this issue.
