Loading Sounds Panel freezes Messenger by Dempsey on 04-12-2005 at 12:59 PM

When i click on the sounds icon in a conversationwindow to send a sound, it takes a while to show as it popualtes the list of available sounds.  Would it be possible to do this in another thread, so that the conversation window doesnt freeze as it currently does

yeah, I'll have to work on that... however, it should be long oly the first time, isn't it?

Assuming the caching works globally, rather than per window.
EDIT: Yes, it is quick after the first time.

yea the first time is the worst, but then it seems to take longer after I have insatlled a new sound pack for example, which i suppose makes it need to refresh the cache of sounds or whatever
