O.P. Small Toasts
I first noticed that my toasts were small the other day, then I upgraded to 3.54 and it seemed to fix it, then today I noticed they're small again.

It's only Plus! toasts.

Windows Version: Windows XP, 5.01.2600
Messenger Client Version: 7.0.0813
Messenger Plus! Version: 3.54.0132

RE: Small Toasts
maybe it has something to do with these registry settings

hmmm... shouldn't make a difference though. If he has a widescreen moni, his screen resolution would be a bit higher, but the relative H/W ratio of a pixel will still be the same... (and it is still the same in his sshot)...

no, those regestry settings are "dynamic", they aren't use like that in this way. The size of the toasts depend on the size of the MSN Messenger toasts. Plus! adapts the size of its toats to that and _then_ sets those registry keys for later use... So you can change those registry keys all you want, they will revert to the MSN Messenger toast sizes afterwards anyways...

IIRC

Its weird because they always used to be the correct size, but I'm not sure what happened but then they were usddenly small and upgrading to Plus! 3.54 fixed it temporarlly but then they went back to being small again.

RE: Small Toasts
I remember this problem when using MSN alerts (It'd make the toasts the same size as the alerts, which are bigger than normal sign in toasts.) But I thought Patchou said he fixed it.

See:
Over Sized Plus! Toasts
