O.P. Suggestion: File transfers
Hi everyone,
Not sure if anyone has already suggested this but i think it would be good to have like a little sidebar for each conversation where any file transfers will be displayed... so that the progress bars and messages about file being sent/recieved are not in the main conversation/text window

what do ya think?

Cheers,

Dane

Welcome DynamiteDane,

Yes this feature has been suggested, and yes it has be considered by Plus! Plugin Developers, but no one yet has stepped to the plate and say they will do it. As you see its not the easiest thing in the world, as far as I know getting the amount of KB would be confusing because you would need to Sniff the Ports that Messenger sends data on, and update the percent in the convo window. Now you ask how is that so confusing? Well with port sniffing you cant tell which transfer is which, so the new filesize of file A your are recieving may be precieved as file B thus updating the stats incorrectly.
