How can I change the color of the Active tab? by jimmyqwy on 08-15-2006 at 01:50 PM

I group all my chats in one tabbed window.
And when someone sends me a new message, the corresponding contact will be activated. 
Now the flashing tab is blue.  How can I change the color of it, just like the default configuration (orange) of windows?

Thanks a lot.

You can't, sorry.

Maybe in the future :)

Using MP!L will give you various tab colours depends on the colour scheme of your current open chat, so each time you switch you’ll get different colours matching the active chat. I think I do very much love this idea.(Y) Hi all...

I don't see this function, for me, the contact sending a message just make the corresponding tab blinking, but not switching to the tab (and this could be annoying)

can't u use tweak! to change the time delay between someone sending u a message and that window coming to the front?

edit: sorry, i just realised that tweak! hasn't come out for MP!L yet - still being developed from version 3.something

The not switching is actually by design. It is so that if you receive a message while typing, the message doesn't get half-sent to the wrong contact.

well, if u minimalized ur chatwindow (tabs), I don't think u type

so maybe change it, so it only changes tabs when it is minimalized and not when u type a message to somebody
