Hi, I'm using the app in ubuntu 20 and I have problems writing Portuguese words that have accents like: módulo. This happens only inside of WhatSie, how can I solve this?

Every time I link my device it always auto-logout. On my device a message pops up and gives a link to : https://faq.whatsapp.com/general/seeing-devices-logged-out-unexpected-issue?lang=en

Please anyone can help me?

Problem Scenario ->

-Open application. -Minimize application to system tray. -Click application icon again(Not the tray one), you will get this warning.

Expected Behavior -> Just open the exist running instance, no need to warn the user about this.This change will affect user experience in very positive way.👍

/home/leonid$ whatsie

I would like to thanks to you for developing this app. This is so useful! One thing I found that any keyboard layout installed through iBus or Keyman did not work to type on Whatsie. Can you fix the problem?

Hey, I really appreciate how wonderful app your whatsie is. But there are some features that I crave.I tried understanding the code but I currently dont know much about QT. Here are the requests:

• As whatsie is running in the background, it can be opened and closed by double clicking on the icon. Is there a command to reopen and close the window. Because I would like a shortcut for that(like Meta+ W to open and close whatsie window). If even there is a terminal command for doing so that currently exists, please relay the same.
• The current download method seems to be a little off, as it keeps on asking for a new folder each time I want to download a document. Could you add the download path in the settings only and download it directly to that Whatsapp Download Folder everytime without asking for the location. Or a soft fix would be to start downloading with the current selected folder without asking for a new folder everytime.
• Please add a time limit for auto locking whatsie, just like automatic fingerprint lock in Whatsapp Android app. Like after 1 minute it would lock automatically.
• Also, add an option to autolock it whenever it is minimized to tray

Hi! Thank you for developing this program. The only issue I'm having is the fact that the appindicator icon is missing on Ubuntu Mate. The fix I used in other qt5 snaps is to add this line to the environment part of the yaml: XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP: $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP:Unity:Unity7 This tells the system explicitly to use the appindicator/ayatana icon (which the normal one it should be using anyway).

When using multiple monitors and the custom notification type is chosen, the notification shows on the secondary screen instead of the primary screen when the Whatsie app is open.

My suggestion:

1. Give the option to choose what screen the notification should be displayed (not a good UX)
2. Display the notification on the primary screen where the Whatsie app is currently maximized or open (better UX)

Greetings,

Suddenly, Whatsie started to crash everytime I tried to open it. I tried remove and install again through snap, delete ~/snap/whatsie/ directory and use the commands below, but had no sucess

sudo rm /var/cache/fontconfig/*
rm ~/.cache/fontconfig/*
fc-cache -r

The error I get on terminal is:

Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway. Gtk-Message: 15:01:20.199: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module" Gtk-Message: 15:01:20.199: Failed to load module "pk-gtk-module" Gtk-Message: 15:01:20.200: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module" Gtk-Message: 15:01:20.200: Failed to load module "pk-gtk-module" QApplication: invalid style override passed, ignoring it.

I'm using Fedora 35. Anything I can do to get this working again? Thanks.

Thank you very much for developing this helpful software. It really saved me a lot of time. I just noticed that I could not switch to my fcitx input method in this whatsapp program. I'm wondering if it's possible to add the Fcitx input method support to this program?

Thanks again for your efforts.

Is it possible to have a red circle or something like that on the tray icon to see new messages at a glance? A red circle with the unread messages number like TeslaUnread on android will be the best for me. thank you

This is what I can see on my side at link time:

while scanelf -n reports:

$ scanelf -n /usr/bin/whatsie 
 TYPE   NEEDED FILE 
ET_EXEC libX11.so.6,libQt5WebEngineWidgets.so.5,libQt5WebEngineCore.so.5,libQt5Widgets.so.5,libQt5Gui.so.5,libQt5Network.so.5,libQt5Positioning.so.5,libQt5Core.so.5,libstdc++.so.6,libm.so.6,libgcc_s.so.1,libc.so.6 /usr/bin/whatsie 

So, in the practice it forces me to have /usr/lib64/libQt5QmlModels.so (there are more examples above), but in the practice whatsie is not linked against it.

If I don't have /usr/lib64/libQt5QmlModels.so at build time it fails (expected) in that way:

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/11.2.1/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find /usr/lib64/libQt5QmlModels.so: No such file or directory
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [Makefile:445: whatsie] Error 1

While if I don't have it at runtime it works as expected.

You can test this behavior by temporarily move the affected libraries, e.g:

mkdir tmplib
cd tmplib
mv /usr/lib64/libQt5QmlModels.so* .

# to revert back
mv * /usr/lib64/

I have to log out and re-link my device each time otherwise messages won't load (program is stuck on "organizing messages") -- Ubuntu 22.04, program version 4.4.26f5659 -- this issue was introduced with one of the recent updates

Expected behavior

• The app should only be shown or hidden when tray icon receives a left click
• Right click on the tray icon should only show the context menu and not modify the state of the app

Obtained behavior

• Right click on tray icon when the window has focus, hides the app and doesn't show the context menu
• Right click on tray icon when the window does NOT have focus, hides the app and shows the context menu
• Right click on tray icon when the app is hidden, shows the app and the context menu does not appear

Hello! When I click on the notification (pop-up) of any program, whatsie opens Tried 4.2 (stable) and 4.2.1 (edge) from snap I don't know if it matters, but, i use Linux mint, cinnamon If you need more information, [email protected]

Great app, thanks!

Hello,

let me say that the qt interface makes whatsie the best whatsapp client around.

I tried to package it for Gentoo and I noticed that the buildsystem lacks a bit on the install phase regarding the png icons. I'm working around this with the ebuild helpers but I just want to share it.

Also there are reverse depends not listed anywere (found with scanelf -n )

Thanks
