The Digsby Wishlist

The following is a list of features that have been requested to be added to digsby by the users. You may vote from 1 to 5 (5 being what you'd like the most) on those features that you would like to see added to future versions. To read more about a feature request, click the feature's title, and be sure to add missing wishes.

Please remember that the developers may or may not pay attention to this list. They are frequently spotted here, though, and we send a weekly update straight to the man in charge by his request :)

Last seen feature

When hovering over buddies who are offline, it would be nice to have a "Last seen: " feature so we could know when the last time that person has been online.

Ability to bold/italicize/alter color for highlighted text only.

Currently, using the bold, italicize, and alter-color buttons will change all of the text in the current window - regardless of whether or not text is highlighted. Allowing users to restrict the change to highlighted text only will be very handy for chatting as well as for creating profiles.

Full log search

The search log feature is pretty useless if you can only search on the day you are looking on. A full log search either of all logs or all logs of the contact that has been currently selected in the log viewer would put a lot of us former trillian and even aim 6 users at home with digsby.

Google calendars and documents suport

Here's an idea. I love the gmail integration. I use it quite a bit for documents and calendar as well. It would be cool if you could have a reminder of your calendar posts, and maybe notifications of when shared documents have been updated (like the facebook notification).

Individual buddy notifications

Ability to right-click on a contact and select "Alert Me When..." and instead of bringing up the notification settings that apply to EVERY user, it would bring up notification settings that apply to that ONE user.

The settings that apply to every user should still be accessible from Tools > Preferences > Notifications.

Auto Away when computer locked

With the AIM program there is a plug-in that would automatically set my status to away when the computer was locked. It would be nice to get that over here on Digsby.

Fix file transfers in AIM

Whenever you try to receive a file from the official AIM program, it never works. The only time I can get a file transfer to go through is when transferring from a non-official AIM program. It would be great if this could made so that you can receive files from the official AIM program.
