When I click with right button on taskbar, I see the menu options... RE: Suggestion: to reverse options "Close Current Chat" and "Close All Chats". by Burningmace on 09-23-2008 at 10:47 PM
I find myself agreeing with this - standard user psychology would be to click the button that they remember as closing that particular conversation back before they had Plus! installed. Another reason for the change is consistency with the top-right close button on the window. In standard Messenger, that button closes that particular conversation. The same happens in Messenger Plus. However, when it comes to the context menu the two functions in the same physical position are different between standard Messenger and Messenger Plus.

I thni this idea will gain little traction, again due to standards and conventions that list the specific options before the general options. RE: Suggestion: to reverse options "Close Current Chat" and "Close All Chats". by zach on 09-27-2008 at 11:24 AM It's not a big deal but I agree with your logic. There are other apps, cmd.exe for example which have done the same thing and put other options before close RE: Suggestion: to reverse options "Close Current Chat" and "Close All Chats". by RaceProUK on 09-27-2008 at 11:29 AM
Don't you mean after Close? RE: Suggestion: to reverse options "Close Current Chat" and "Close All Chats". by zach on 09-27-2008 at 11:39 AM Hmm in ascending order they're before. After/before idk, you know what I mean. Not sure I understand your explanation though... RE: Suggestion: to reverse options "Close Current Chat" and "Close All Chats". by ahmetgns on 10-05-2008 at 09:18 AM Another alternative could be bolding "Close Current Chat" item in its current position like cmd.exe, because common user also focuses on bold-faced item while using the taskbar menu of a window to close it. |
