Ahmetgns, Aardvark simply summed up what has already been said in this thread...

You think there are three good ideas TO BE IMPLEMENTED TOGETHER IN THE NEXT VERSION, or, ONLY ONE OF WHICH TO BE IMPLEMENTED (not all together)???
Why is that important? He gives three possebilities. The three possebilities which are talked about in this thread. It's up to Patchou...

1.b. If 1.a. is not applicable then have the tooltip balloon pop up from the systemtray icon explaining you how to unlock it.
Why & when cannot 1.a be applicable?
He gives possebilities. There might be reasons why some method will not work/not be implemented. Reasons only known to Patchou atm.

2. When you select lock messenger from the Plus! menu (an option I never even realised was there - I use shortcuts too much ) you get a dialog warning also
Why ALSO? If user has been explained how to unlock Messenger previously (when he used the shortcut), why would a second warning teach him again how to unlock Messenger?
Who's talking about a second popup? Nobody... Instead read what he said:

When you select lock messenger from the Plus! menu (an option I never even realised was there - I use shortcuts too much :P) you get a dialog warning also - as how it is with using the key shortcut - MEANING that no matter how you do it, when you lock messenger for the FIRST TIME ONLY, you'll get the dialog box.

Except you might need to change the words on the dialog box to get rid of "the key combination you have pressed" seeing as you haven't pressed a key combo you've selected a menu item anyway that's not important right now.
I don't think so. If the window pops-up when he presses the shortcut, it must explain that he pressed a shortcut which locks Messenger. Otherwise, a user would think "what did I do so I locked messenger?".
*sigh* He is very obviously talking about the dialog which pops up when you click the menu item, not when you press a shortcut. Although it is the same dialog, the wordings must be different.

Aardvark summed up, in a simple yet very clear and understanding manner, what has been said so far in this thread.


You are quick to accuse people of not being abe to read English or not being able to understand what your (very gibberish) posts say, using all sorts of excuses. But you seem to fail at understanding short (and written in proper English!) posts also...
