PM doesn't show colors... just show the format tags
why this??? is there a limitation of MP!L???

What PSM? Yours or your contacts? And where doesn't it show colors? In your contactlist, in the top personal bar? Also, I assume you're talking about Messenger Plus! Live?

Always be specific in your posts so you can be helped out in a decent way (without lots of time consuming post and reply traffic)

And try to use full names of features, especially when you don't know the correct abbrivations Otherwise it can be very confusing.

eg: your post might even be interpreted as a Private Message on the forums.


Guessing in what you mean:

If you mean you can't see the colors in your own color formatted PSM (personal message) in the top personal bar in the contactlist, then yes, this is a limitation. People will see your PSM with the proper formatting (provided they have a compatible Messenger Plus! installed).

I dunno why. Patchou can answer that though. But it maybe has something todo with the way it is hooked; or rather can't be hooked in the way Patchou uses hooking.

and you don't think can be a solution to this???

Not unless Patchou finds a way to do it, so at the moment there is no solution, sorry. I don't see why you need it that much, if you want to check how it looks you can always add yourself to your contact list

Hey guys sorry for open this thread again... I just have a question... Have you ever used the "roll message" feature of MSNShell??? I do... And something suprised me today... I putted a formated code in there... and was showed in the psm... look my screenshot... why that??? I can't understand now why the other can't!!!

something like that was what I though... but is kind of weird... don't you think it???

can someone talk to patchou and tell me what he said about it???

that's because you can edit the tags directly in the contact list by clicking on the psm. I don't want to risk losing the attributes when this happens so I prefer to leave them there, as is.

SP doesn't need to take formatting into consideration though...

Bump!

Hi, I don't know if you could think this before (I hope so) but I wanted to share it with you. You can quickly view your formatted personal message (it is truncated if too long but still gives an idea) in your contact card. I wrote this for people who don't want to add themselves to their contact lists for only seeing how their psm's look like.
