959231 - [Messages][MMS]The MMS body content is not shown in the thread list view

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1223432

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::SMS, defect, P2)

Description

[Maria Angeles Oteo (:oteo)]

The beginning of the body content of a sent, received or draft MMS is not shown in the thread list view.

When MMS was implemented it seems that was not possible to show it due to any technical issue. It is still outstanding for the Interaction team (SMS shows it the body content) so let's open this bug to track it and try to fix it as soon as it can be possible.

Julien, right now, are there any technical impediment to implement this for 1.4?

Comment 2

[Julien Wajsberg [:julienw]]

If we have the MMS content (ie: it was downloaded) then there is no problem to display any text content. We only need UX Design (to resolve issues like what do to when there is no text content, when there is both subject and body, when the MMS is not downloaded, etc) and visual design (do we still have the "MMS" badge in the thread list ? things like that).

That said, I'd rather see this in the "targeted" list than the "blocking" list.

Triage: pending feature to be implemented, adding it to backlog to be considered in the next release (some gecko work seems to be needed too)

Omega, can you provide some UX guidance here? Then I could make this bug a mentored bug.

Comment 5

Here are the rules:

Not downloaded:
    MMS

Downloaded:

  With Subject & Body:
    MMS %Subject - %Body

  With Subject, no Body:
    MMS %Subject

  No Subject, with Body:
    MMS %Body

  No Subject, no Body:
    MMS

If %Subject/%Body is too long, use ... and the end. (max 1 row)
For colors, "MMS" is orange, and %Subject/%Body is gray.

Would it be possible to show a small thumbnail of the MMS body's attached image as well as text?

Comment 8

[Julien Wajsberg [:julienw]]

I think it would clutter the display...

Eh. At the resolution it would have to be at to fit the line, I think it'd not be terribly distracting. I'd like to try it out at least.

Attachment: screenshot of issue on Flame 3.0

This issue is reproducible on Flame 3.0. The MMS content that I created is just a subject line and a body, I didn't attach any pictures. See screenshot.
