Is it possible to automatically open a minimized chat window every time someone signs in?

You mean like opening a chat window as soon as somebody signs in?

Yes.

That's quite simple:

code:

---

function OnEvent_ContactSignIn(cEmail) {
      Messenger.OpenChat(cEmail);
}

---

That opens them in the foreground. How do I make it so it opens them minimized?

I'm not sure if this works, but I think it should:

code:

---

var SC_MINIMIZE = 0xF020

function OnEvent_ContactSignin(cEmail) {
      pChatWnd = Messenger.OpenChat(cEmail);
      k = Interop.Call("User32.dll","SendMessageW",SC_MIIMIZE,pChatWnd.Handle);
      if(k == 0) {
            Debug.Trace(Interop.GetLastError());
      }
}

---

code:

---

function OnEvent_ContactSignin(Email){
Interop.Call("user32","CloseWindow",Messenger.OpenChat(Email).handle);
}

---

These can all be shorted by doing

code:

---

function OnEvent_ContactSignin (sEmail) {
    Interop.Call( 'user32', 'ShowWindow', Messenger.OpenChat( sEmail ).Handle, 6 /* SW_MINIMIZE */ );
}
