O.P. {Request} Turn all incomming messages red
I found a way to make all conversations normal fonts, that helped a lot, but is there a way to change the color of the font the person typing to you uses?

as in if i want to make the font of everyone talking to me Red and normal font or something, can it be done?

Go to Plus > Preferences, then in the 'Conversations' tab, tick the box which says "Override the font used by my contacts by default" then click the "Choose Font..." button (in that same window) and choose your font style.

There's a color option there, so I guess this it does. :P

However, it will also replace the font face. There's no way a script can color incoming messages using [c=#]...[/c] tags because the new message can't be longer than the original message, as explained in the scripting documentation. So I doubt there's another way to do this with the current capabilities of Plus!...

I thought that kraus meant "normal font" as in Times New Roman rather than as the other user's normal font. You're probably right though :p

Ooo sorry yes I meant Times New Roman

And I also did get the red font to work :)


it would be cool if someone could create a script for individual color assignmnets for each person though that you can choose, for group convos and such :)
