Toast pop-up per group by SlimShady on 07-06-2004 at 11:44 AM

Hi,
Messenger Plus 3 is great.

I would like to see a toast pop-up come up when someone from a specific group comes online.
For example: anyone from the group "Colleagues".

Can you provide me that ability?

I'm looking forward to read your replies.

(I didn't see a "Plus Suggestions" subforum that's why I posted here.)

im not sure how to do it in vb

becuase there is no event as contact sign in


i could tell you when

   -ContactAddedToGroup
   - OnGroupAdded
   - OnGroupNameChanged
    - OnGroupRemoved

RE: Toast pop-up per group by Wouter on 07-06-2004 at 12:19 PM

yes you can :)
look @ OnContactStatusChange

RE: Toast pop-up per group by Stigmata on 07-06-2004 at 12:27 PM

:) clever clogs :)
like this

code:
Private Sub msn_OnContactStatusChange(pMContact As Object, mStatus As MISTATUS)
If mStatus = MISTATUS_ONLINE Then
Dim bToastResult As Boolean
bToastResult = DisplayToast("" & pMContact & "is now online", "New Group Online", "http://www.plasticangels.com", True)


End Sub

just duno how to define group
RE: Toast pop-up per group by Wouter on 07-06-2004 at 12:40 PM

for example you can call a function that looks with email defines with groep

RE: Toast pop-up per group by Wouter on 07-06-2004 at 12:43 PM

If mStatus = MISTATUS_OFFLINE Then

online :)
RE: Toast pop-up per group by SlimShady on 07-06-2004 at 01:02 PM

What I meant was:
"Can you add it in Messenger Plus or
make a plug-in that does that."
I haven't started programming yet.
I'll start programing after I reinstall my PC.

RE: Toast pop-up per group by Stigmata on 07-06-2004 at 01:08 PM

read again and make it offline :)

you want to know when somebody goes online not change his status to online :)
RE: Toast pop-up per group by Stigmata on 07-06-2004 at 02:28 PM

so it would be



code:
Private Sub msn_OnContactStatusChange(pMContact As Object, mStatus As MISTATUS)
If mStatus = MISTATUS_OFFLINE Then
Dim bToastResult As Boolean
bToastResult = DisplayToast("" & pMContact & "is now online", "New Group Online", "http://www.plasticangels.com", True)


End Sub

:s but how would that work :S

would u have
code:
then
*blank*
else
popup


????

RE: Toast pop-up per group by Wouter on 07-06-2004 at 04:24 PM

code:
Option Explicit
Private WithEvents Wouter As MessengerAPI.Messenger

Private Sub Form_Load()
  Set Wouter = New MessengerAPI.Messenger
End Sub

Private Sub Wouter_OnContactStatusChange(ByVal pMContact As Object, ByVal mStatus As MessengerAPI.MISTATUS)
  If mStatus = MISTATUS_OFFLINE Then
  MsgBox LoadGroeps(pMContact.SigninName)
  End If
End Sub

Private Function LoadGroeps(contact As String) As String
Dim MsgrGroups As IMessengerGroups
Dim MsgrGroup As IMessengerGroup
Dim MsgrContacts As IMessengerContacts
Dim MsgrContact As IMessengerContact
  Set MsgrGroups = Wouter.MyGroups
  For Each MsgrGroup In MsgrGroups
      Set MsgrContacts = MsgrGroup.Contacts
      For Each MsgrContact In MsgrContacts
        If MsgrContact.SigninName = contact Then
          LoadGroeps = MsgrGroup.Name
        End If
      Next
  Next
End Function

here you go
i dont have anytime to make this into a plugin so if you want jackass_wanabe  you can use this
RE: Toast pop-up per group by SlimShady on 07-06-2004 at 05:39 PM

@jackass_wanabe:
If you're gonna make me that plugin...
Here's what I have in mind:
- a plugin that looks like the feature in Outlook: "e-mail rules"
- with a nice design

Features I would like to see:
- choose a sound
- open conversation with the person
- send message when a person comes online

Thank you.

RE: Toast pop-up per group by Stigmata on 07-06-2004 at 07:46 PM

whats that

screeeenie :)
RE: Toast pop-up per group by SlimShady on 07-06-2004 at 09:08 PM

It's not only the visual but how it works.
My XP is Dutch so I'll explain how it works.
Description at the top.
And then 4 sections.
1. Select criteria for the rule (when a person comes online)
2. Select actions for the rule (multiple are allowed)
- a sound
- start a program
- open conversation
- send message
3. Rule description
User can:
- click on an underlined word to specify more info
eg: the message to be sent, which program to start, which sound to play
- read which actions will be taken
4. Name of the rule.

Please take your time and make me happy :)

Thank you.

PS. A screenshot of the "e-mail rules" feature is attached (in Dutch)

So you're making a Messenger Plus alternative..?

Anyway, I tested the plugin you made;
- I had one relative online.
- I told her to go offline and wait 5 seconds and come online again.
- my relatives group was empty
- when she came online again, nothing happened!
RE: Toast pop-up per group by Dempsey on 07-08-2004 at 10:47 AM

what features  does Messenger Milk currently have?
