display event viewer via plus! icon by chrishn on 05-20-2007 at 08:20 PM
Hi I am newbie and I have searched the forum but no to avail.
I know how to navigate to the Display Event Viewer that is: go and click the small down arrow at the top of main WLM window and then menu > Plus! > Display Event Viewer but this is pain!
All I want is just to click the Plus! icon (under my screen name) then click Display Event Viewer in the menu - presto!
But this menu contains only those options: Lock Messenger | Contact List Clean-Up ..., Contacts on Desktop ... | Chat Log Viewer..., Sound Library ..., Preferences... but no Display Event Viewer
Is there any script or preferences or registry fix to enable/add this option in the shortcut Plus! icon?
Cheers
chrishn

A script can, at best, add a submenu item to the Plus! script icon and in that submenu have another subitem which you can click to enable/disable the event viewer. Thus you'll get: Plus! script icon > script name > enable/disable event viewer.
PS: for those who want to make the script: Make it show and hide the Event Viewer exactly like Plus! does. And also don't forget to check/uncheck the menu item of the Plus! menu so the user doesn't have conflicting menu item when he uses the Plus! menu (which can all be done by 1 line using the Windows API).
EDIT: blah... couldnt sleep, so here is the script

I do hope Patchou sees this thread too.
Ah yes, it works, via Scripts icon. Although I would prefer one less click away, it is better and it will do just for now - many thanks.

Script is good, but really, I would like to see this under the plus icon. right under or above the "chat log viewer...". I think it makes more sense. Please and thank you patchou!
