Minimising chat window by BigH on 06-25-2006 at 10:01 PM

When i minimise (not just behind other windows, actually minimise) the chat window, Windows does not recognise that it is a window anymore. It appears in the taskbar, however it does not appear in the alt+tab menu. Yes i am using the tabed chat feature.

Also, when minimised, it will not flash orange when a new message has been received.

Plus! version: 4.0.0.234
MSN Messenger version: 8.0.0.0869.00_Branches.
Windows XP Home.

If you need anymore information, let me know.

This is a known issue with the current version (the alt+tab problem), I will try to fix that in a future update.

alt tab issue also mentioned in:
Alt+Tab Problem...

P.S. BigH: there is a newer version of Plus!Live and a newer Windows Live Messenger build available.

Sorry, i searched for "minimise" and didn't get a result so i posted it.

Thanks Patchou. Do you have any idea about the whole 'not flashing when a new message is received while minimised' problem?

Ill update either today or tommorow if i have time :)
