The Button icon for "Omemo encryption is activated and authenticated" is counter-intutive about gajim-omemo HOT 1 CLOSED

i agree, though that is the API and symbol Gajim offers to Plugins its not something OMEMO chooses.

also with one symbol you cant correctly show the status of a chat.
every chat message could have different properties, one could be send in plaintext, the next encrypted.

also the icon could change if you have other plugins activated like GPG or OTR.
OMEMO can not control the icons state at all time, so it might be incorrectly set.

right now gajim doesnt offer something better, like per chat line icon that shows us what the properties of a specific message was.

so i close this because from a plugin perspective we will not change that.

though im a dev for gajim also, and i let you know that this is on our list, to give a better indication of the properties of a message.

if you want you can open a ticket on trac.gajim.org about it, i doubt though that it will make things faster. Gajim has to few devs at the moment for fast, bigger changes.
