Leopard and Message Styles

Post by Torpov »

I just upgraded to Leopard, and a number of the message styles seem to be (for the lack of a better term) busted. The most prominent one that I noticed is that when changing to a message style variant, the window will bug out and remove formatting for the window or cause other sorts of strange effects. I'm going to take a shot in the dark and say it's Safari 3's fault.

Stockholm: (icon is huge because of the size I set in the preferences)

Even the defaults styles do it, so I don't know what's really up with things. It's a intermittent but reproducible issue, and sorry for the bad example in the image, but it represents the problem.

I believe this has to do with AIImageViewWithImagePicker. I may be wrong though, just a guess. Since AIImageViewWithImagePicker is disabled (or non-existent) on 10.5, applications which used it (ie. Adium), now have that functionality disabled. That's the full size of your Buddy Icon, right? It's not properly resizing, and then throwing everything off. How did you select that Buddy Icon? Did you do it through Adium, or did it pull through from your Address Book/User Account picture?

The only possible solution I can think of (if I understand the problem right) is to pick a buddy icon that's 64x64 or smaller, or just turn buddy icons off until a fully Leopard compatible Adium comes around. I suspect that won't be too long now.

In all honesty, I didn't set the buddy icon. This is a clean install of Leopard, and AIM picked it up when I reinstalled, but I'm pretty sure I chose it through Adium then, since I remember using the nifty image resizing tool like the User Account settings have (which seems to be absent now in Adium).

It'll be back in 1.1.4; Leopard broke the totally unsupported private version of it we were using in Tiger.
