Something I'd like to see in the next msgplus by Kuolema on 02-02-2006 at 04:14 PM

I have a bit over 1000 sounds.
Around 300-400 of them are in one category.
This means, whenever I want to put a sound from the very end of the list it takes a lot of time to click the > arrow 15-20 times.

So my suggestion is, add browsing numbers somewhere like [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]... etc

This would really help me/us out a lot :)

EDIT: ah, I typoed the thread name.. The next version of msgplus :)

Yeah, that's something I want to see as well! good idea!

And maybe a search option? (or is that already in :S, no idea :P, don't use plus! anymore :P, i'm on wlm and before that on gaim cause MSN 7 or lower somehow won't work on my computer :S)

I also think this could be quite useful. Having a large amound of sounds can make it extremely annoying to have to click the arrows many times.

Although not a total solution the the problem, you can increase the amount of sounds shown per page using the Plus! preferences (Plus>Preferences>General Options>Sounds) - this number can also be tweaked by using Messenger Plus! Tweak! to a much higher number (at the cost of sound panel loading time the first time it is loaded per convo).

There is no search option that I am aware of, however I also agree this could also be a somewhat useful feature for those of us with a large number of sounds. As an idea, perhaps the category combo in the sound panel could work as a seachbox also, so when you type something in, all sounds that contain a match or partial match could be displayed?

I'd like to see sub-catogories and custom catogories.

How am I suppost to know what ones are which? For example.. What ones are The Simpsons sounds and what ones are South Park sounds?

For this information, I thank you! This is very helpful.
Now it's only ~10 clicks to the end.

I think there should be a way of adding your own catagores thus making it easier to sort your sounds. I dont know if it is done yet, and a search would be cool too, again I dont know if it already a feture since I do not use Plus! sounds. sorry patchou

i like the idea of adding custom catagarys for the Sounds, would make it easier to sort them.
