Chatterino2: New usercard does not auto-close anymore

Created on 23 Jul 2020  路  3Comments  路  Source: Chatterino/chatterino2

What should be added?
In the nightly builds of chatterino the usercard with the added chat history now no longer closes automatically. It used to be that the popup would close automatically when its focus was removed.

Why should it be added?
I liked the old behaviour more. I don't think there is really much of a use case to keeping the user popup open. It's especially annoying when you click on a name accidentally, or when you want to give a user a ban/timeout quickly as a moderator. You now have to explicitly press the escape button or the close button, and god forbid you focus chatterino before closing the popup, because the you have to bring the popup back to focus using the task bar or alt-tabbing.

I'd like this to be a toggleable setting imo.
I personally dislike the windows being open, but I can see the appeal for modding.

It's probably a rare use-case, but the non-closing usercards have been helpful for modding. Makes it easier to follow and backtrack conversations to find the source of issues.

Should this be a setting then? Chatterino could default to the old auto-close behavior and have a setting to keep them open.
