[sip-comm-dev] Tab width issue

Hi,
I just noticed that no matter what is the screen name length it always
gets shortened at least by four letters. This is somewhat a problem
with 4 letter nicknames, because only '...' will get displayed on chat
window tab for them. Also if I try to open new tab for person with
3-letter or shorter nickname it throws ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException
(since it tries to do: "title.substring(0, title.length() -
4).concat("...");"). Can anyone confirm this bug?

The one fix I found is to make width returned by
SIPCommTabbedPaneEnhancedUI.calculateTabWidth() larger by WIDTHDELTA.
(However I'm not sure if that could break something else - I believe
not, but...)

Hi Martin,

I just noticed that no matter what is the screen name length it always
gets shortened at least by four letters. This is somewhat a problem

I confirm the bug (using GTK L&F here)

The one fix I found is to make width returned by
SIPCommTabbedPaneEnhancedUI.calculateTabWidth() larger by WIDTHDELTA.
(However I'm not sure if that could break something else - I believe
not, but...)

... and the fix. As WIDTHDELTA is used in other calculations, I tried
several values between 0 and 20 and tabs + names still display fine.

Cheers,
