How to join a groupchat

Hi,

how do I join a groupchat. How I select a groupchat as favorite? Is the
UI in version 0.24 broken?

I can setup groupchats, but there no connect/join button. I can
configure them as "Autoconnect" and restart gossip, but thats not a
solution...

Regards,

Keywan

When in a room you can add it to your favourites from the chat window. I
didn't think it made sense to add a favourite for a chat room that might
not exist or be joinable, but others have also pointed out that
sometimes you want to set a favourite as you join it. Perhaps we could
add a small checkbutton in the join dialog at the bottom for that.

The dialog does not have the purpose you are trying to use it for, it
allows you to edit properties of your favourite chat rooms. To join one,
select it from the Room menu or use F5 to join ALL of them.

ok, I am blind :) But, I didn't want to join a brand new, I want to join
a already set up groupchat.

I would agree with this. The checkbutton would be helpful. But my UI
seems to broken.

 In the room menu is only one favorite from one account shown, but I set
up 6 or more favorites in other accounts. They aren't shown, so I
thought they are not favorites...
