RE: [Release] Email tooltip by rob_botch on 07-31-2006 at 12:17 PM

That is quite brilliant! Thanks for a wonderful script. And by the way, what is "dt 2.0 beta"? LOL

(31-Jul-06) (18:06:06) <@dt> also
(31-Jul-06) (18:06:14) <@dt> it shows custom statuses
(31-Jul-06) (18:07:10) <@dt> in the tray
(31-Jul-06) (18:07:12) <@dt> =D

Ok now thats a reason to get it ... i dont use polygamy tho :P
Anyway, is there anyway we can fake the tooltip when messenger is under lock? :cheesy:

to what? :P and its possible

edit: hmm it doesnt seem to be "accepting" the tooltip when its locked :-/
RE: [Release] Email tooltip by RaceProUK on 07-31-2006 at 12:58 PM

To, for instance, 'C:\ 98.4GB free'?
Or even the true free space?


RE: [Release] Email tooltip by ins4ne on 07-31-2006 at 07:44 PM

yay good script :D was wondering if such a thing exists :D thanks a lot -dt-


RE: [Release] Email tooltip by vaccination on 07-31-2006 at 08:07 PM

Nice and what JA suggests would be brilliant and like RacePro says if it said sumthing like the amount of disk space you have.(even if it is fake)

I can confirm this too, though it seems to switch to e-mail address once the contact list has been opened and closed.
RE: [Release] Email tooltip by -dt- on 08-01-2006 at 09:07 AM

Well i already said that :P

If you can get a tooltip whilst its locked, ill use it :P Or did patchy disable that or something?

RE: [Release] Email tooltip by Spunky on 08-02-2006 at 12:50 PM

Works great! edited it slightly though so that it shows my username and email address because my email addresses are too similar :p


RE: [Release] Email tooltip by Jimbo on 08-02-2006 at 05:45 PM

This script is probably the best one i have downloaded. Thanks so much

RE: [Release] Email tooltip by CookieRevised on 08-13-2006 at 09:47 PM

-dt-, your class is far more complicated then it needs to be.

You don't need all those fancy API callings to get to the tray icons of messenger.

In fact you don't need to know the handles to the tray icons since the Shell_NotifyIcon API doesn't need them. All it needs is the handle to the window which owns the icon (which is the hidden window with class "MSNHiddenWindowClass") and the identifier used for the tray icon (which is 40046). With this in mind you could make your class a whole lot shorter...

see "CookieRevised's reply to Help: How to write code that hides system tray icon".


RE: [Release] Email tooltip by Shondoit on 08-13-2006 at 10:53 PM

I downloaded your script, CookieRevised, and I remember it saying 'Polygamy warning' of some kind?

With this script you certainly don't have that problem...

But I could've misread/misunderstood


RE: [Release] Email tooltip by CookieRevised on 08-13-2006 at 11:01 PM

It doesn't say "polygamy warning", it says "polygamy aware" meaning it is fully polygamy compatible.
(which can also be deducted from the 4 lines of code in my script)


RE: [Release] Email tooltip by Shondoit on 08-13-2006 at 11:05 PM

Than it was a misread:P


RE: [Release] Email tooltip by Chancer on 10-03-2006 at 07:49 PM

hey guys, i'd like to make the tooltip show like this:

quote:
Windows Live Messenger
email@hotmail.com (Status)
but i dont know how to make a linebreak

the line i'm edittin is:

code:
Tray.EditTooltip(TrayIcon.hwnd, TrayIcon.uID, "Windows Live Messenger " + Messenger.MyEmail +  status );
how do i do the linebreak???
RE: [Release] Email tooltip by deAd on 10-03-2006 at 08:25 PM

"\n"

Just put it in the middle of your string:

code:
Tray.EditTooltip(TrayIcon.hwnd, TrayIcon.uID, "Windows Live Messenger\n" + Messenger.MyEmail +  status );

RE: [Release] Email tooltip by Chancer on 10-03-2006 at 08:28 PM

thanx!

I was trying /n...thats why it didnt work..


RE: [Release] Email tooltip by phalanxii on 10-04-2006 at 09:08 AM

A pretty minor thing, but I noticed that if you change your status to the same as your current status, your tooltip resets to its default. This happens to both -dt-'s new script, and Cookie's script. Any way to get around this?


RE: [Release] Email tooltip by Eddie on 10-05-2006 at 05:25 AM

Very nice :) Works great for me :D Thanks.

Messenger sets its tooltip and icon whenever you set your status (doesn't matter what previous status was), this is part of the routine Messenger does. And this is actually also used in my script to restore the icon and tooltip to its original.

Plus! does not fire a statuschange event when you set your status to the same status as before. The only thing you can do is either subclassing Messenger (long way around and requires external DLL) or using a timer which polls constantly (creates extra overhead)... or request to Patchou that he also let the statuschange event fire upon this event.

(this also shows that if something doesn't seem to happen on the surface it doesn't mean nothing happens at all in the background)
RE: [Release] Email tooltip by Lukeyy19 on 10-10-2006 at 10:30 AM

if i want it to show my name instead of email do i change Messenger.MyEmail to Messenger.MyName, or what?

Edit: never mind, i tried it and it worked


RE: [Release] Email tooltip by Spunky on 10-10-2006 at 10:34 AM

Yes, that exactly what you do :p I might set mine to my PSM, that might be quite "snazzy"

or you could add that in to another line?

so it reads:

Windows Live Messenger
Name (Status)
PSM

or

WLM - Email
PSM (Status)

or whatever combination, the posibilities are endless..... untill you run out....

RE: [Release] Email tooltip by warmth on 12-23-2006 at 07:50 PM

Look the pic... I think there is a problem with XML! :-# Can you fixed it, mate???


RE: [Release] Email tooltip by warmth on 12-27-2006 at 11:37 PM

what's up mate???

Requests: I will explain my situation and then what I want... I have 3 messenger accounts... When the 3 messengers start automatically with the poligami! script all is ok... then I try to modify the display of your script for show me the ((custom)) and I got the error of my previous post... and then the effect only get applied to the account I have click on to configurate... when I see the other accounts nothing happens... Then I restart my pc and the configuration wasnt saved... all were like I didn't do anything... then I did the same thing again an I realised that when I put ((custom)) but I haven't any custom status then only appears this "()"...

So my requests are: can you do different configurations for each acount and the saved it forever until you changed it?
can you do that when you have no custom status but in configuration you put the ((custom)) thing, nothing get displayed?


RE: [Release] Email tooltip by Daaan on 05-28-2007 at 07:03 PM

Hoe kan je het script aan zetten?
want ik heb het al gedownload maar hoe zet ik het aan:P


RE: [Release] Email tooltip by user13774 on 05-28-2007 at 07:19 PM

Eigenlijk moet je in het Engels posten... maar goed:
De functie van dit script zit al ingebouwd in de nieuwste Msgplus. Download die en check Msgplus opties -> Messenger -> Algemeen -> Emailadres van huidige gebruiker toevoegen aan icooninfo in systeemvak.

Problem solved.


RE: [Release] Email tooltip by warmth on 05-28-2007 at 08:09 PM

why do you wanna use that??? if the new plus bring it this into???


RE: [Release] Email tooltip by user13774 on 05-28-2007 at 08:12 PM

yes warmth, that's what I said, but then in Dutch, sorry. :wink:


RE: [Release] Email tooltip by warmth on 05-28-2007 at 08:14 PM

jajajajaja ok mate...

Note: YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE 200th post!!! :o)
