Would it be possible for anybody to make an edit to the MSN interface so that you are able to click on the B I and U buttons like in word, rather than selecting it from the Special Text menu, as it's a pretty annoying thing to have to keep going into it.  Here's a picture of the kind of thing I'd like.

it wouldnt b very good cos if someone made the screen really small, it would become really dodgy

Well I think the advantages far outweigh that.

true! seems like a brilliant idea maybe it should be in Plus1 rather than a plugin, but what do i know lol
p.s it could go dodgy in handwrting when u press convert, becuave theres already alot there

What does "convert" in the handrwriting do anyways?

And yeah i think this should be implemented in Plus! would be a nice feature

if u have a tablet pc and u use the convert tab it converts ur handwriting into proper text.

but it might be better if there was a button u can press to bring up that panel

I think if you search the forum, you'll find this has been requested before when everyone was told about this new feature and Patchou consequently said no, due to the fact he didn’t think it would be appropriate. Also for people with the HandWriting plugin, this would cause some problems with the layout, unless this was also taken care of. I personally wouldn’t mind.. but its just as easy to type Ctrl + R

Well.. actually not really. As much as i like the idea, i don't think the advantages far outweigh it. This toolbar idea of the current feature is good but only in the view of convenience, and Ctrl + R doesn't really sound like such a task that would prove to be of any inconvenience.

Other then that, would be nice to see what people come up with, either with a plugin design or anything..

It transforms any 'hand written' words/sentences into typing words. If you have a pen, and scribble hello.. it will transform to "hello" in text so you can send it. You will need a special .dll for this if your not on a tablet pc

It only works on Tablet PC's, it's to convert drawn text into typed text.. Kind of like OCR I suppose.

how about to put it next to block etc?

Unless you get the dll from Microsoft's Tablet PC Recogniser Pack
