Messages tab: context menu or button to add user to contacts/blocklist/browse files? #122

Closed slrslr closed 2 years ago

Do you think it can be handy to add option to browse user's shared files from Messages tab? For example mouse right click menu when i click some of the messages. Menu is already there but missing the option. Also may be handy to have menu entry for adding the user to the Contacts / Blocklist (not yet interface to easily remove blocked user).

Well, I don't want to add too many items to the right click menu. You can achieve all those things by right-click->Copy Full ID and then either paste the full ID in the search box if you want to browse or in the Add Contact dialog if you want to add as a contact or block.

(Yes I know I haven't fixed right-lick paste in the Add Contact form yet. It's on my TODO.md list in the source tree)

Update: I fixed copy-pasting into the "Add Contact" box and also added a right-click paste option to the search field.

I have cloned and while my library was loading upon muwire 0.8.12beta2 start, Search tab returned results. I have tried to copy your full ID and paste it to Add contact dialog, it pasted it. But not added any contact (no message why) and i have noticed that searching no longer returns any results. Library was still loading. Once loaded, i see that the contact was added and search returns the results again. This is a bit confusing/inconvenient if library loading lets say 15 minutes. If this should be closed, then close this please.

Yes, unfortunately loading of the library is pretty much a blocker for any other interaction. To fix that would require major redesign and rewrite. How does it behave if you disable throttling of the loading or have you already disabled this?

Closing this issue for now.
