blinkings at auto-hide taskbar by hctopcu on 10-20-2005 at 07:41 PM

i use my taskbar at left of screen with auto-hide. when a message recieves that window blinks and brings up the taskbar front. that annoys me much while working on windows maximized.
saw the new tabbed chats feature thats great! thnx.
i want to be notified only at that bar when a message is recieved. not blinking at task bar. can i do it by myself? or can u add some option like that to plus? please...

If you turn off "auto-activate chatwindows with unread messages" then there won't be anymore taskbarflashes..only the flashing in the tabbar.

To do this go to Plus > preferences > instant messages > tabbed chats and turn off "auto-activate"

Nah, you're not.
It's a lil something one needs to know (not really documented)...more the insides of how Plus! tabbed chat works ;)

Ofcourse this only goes if your chats are tabbed, wich means 2 conversations or more....but that's easily fixed: just open an extra conversationscreen (no need to talk in it).

Welcome to the forums :D

As you like the taskbar to the left, maybe you like the tabsbar (Group Bar) on the left of the conversationscreen aswell...it's on the same tab as the "auto-activate..." ;)
