O.P. Personal Status Bugs
Greetings!

I'm a new member here, so this is my first real post... but I have been HAPPILY using Plus! since 2001! :)

I have installed an unpatched copy of WLM 8.0.0792 and MPL 4.0 last night, and I'd like to report 4 minor bugs...

1. Personalized Status List - It would be nice if the list was sorted alphabetically, or at the very least, there should be an option to sort it alphabetically. This is more of an organizational preference than a bug.

2. Personalized Status List - Last item on list is cut off, see attached screenshot.

3. Personalized Status List - When using a TabletPC's TIP to insert text into the Auto-Respond text box, the insertion is extremely slow (about 1 character per 1.5 seconds, rather than instant like with all other text boxes). I would be happy to test a fix since I realize not many will have a TabletPC to test with. This isn't a big issue, since I can still type it manually without an issue, but I use my Tablet mode a lot with WLM's Ink support, and Tablet's are becoming much more popular recently.

4. I've also experienced the previously reported concerns about switching to a personal status and then returning to Online status only to have it keep the extra status tags in the name or personalized message. My experiences have indicated that it happens most often when a connection has been interrupted and the account automatically signs back in. Once you sign in, Plus seems to keep the changed setting knowing that it was the "original" name tags at signon. The other cases, again in my experience, suggest that sometimes there is simply a lag between the time that Plus sends the name change and Messenger service's response in changing it. Hopefully that will clear the issue up for some people.

I'll report anything else I find in appropriate threads or start appropriate threads if necessary, but for now I want to say THANK YOU to Patchou for a job very well done (as always)!
