Hi, I have Messenger Plus in french, so I'll try to do my best to translate things...

When I right click to a name, and I go at "Messenger Plus! Extra" and I click on "Contact Informations"... the windows called "Recent events" is a little too small.. when someone change his nick, I can see only the first words of the nickname and it ends with "..." I would like to know if we can make this dialog box larger..  to see all the sentence..

Can someone help me ? thanks a lot

No, because this has to be programmed/implemented by Patchou... this isn't something we can help with... (hence it is more of a suggestion and thus I've requested to move this thread )

Anyways, there was a very related suggestion done previously. The issue was that the column which shows the times is actualy too big for some people (it wastes some space) and too small for others (using the 12h-clock system)....
See http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=27351
So I hope Patchou doesn't forget about that also.

As for your suggestion, I like it too

I'll try to do somethign about it in version 3.10. Meanwhile, you can always double click on the events to see the full info .

Patchou Wouldn't you just need to add a Horizontal Bar To The Information Window?
Because The Information is still there isn't it? It's just being cut off.

I know In VB Its An Option on the side but in C++ it 's completly different.

...but you can always double click the event and it'll show you the full name in a new window

True. But I think fnx wants it so that you dont need to double click on it but thats what I do

they area is too small, even for showing the statusses only, and if you're gonna add a scrollbar to it, then you make the area even smaller... I'm sure Patchou will come up with something...

VB has the option for Vertical not horizontal. You need to use an API call to create one. But it is doable.
