Toastbox Problem by k3muri on 06-23-2004 at 01:17 AM
I'm trying to develop a plugin, using the c# plugin framework, for first try a single ping plugin. I'm trying to use the toastWindow, but i ran into the following problem : I have my taskbar at the top of the screen, so normal messenger toastWindows appear at the right place, at the top of my screen, but messenger plus toastWindows appear at the bottom of my screen.
First i thought this because of the c# framework, but the mailchecker toastboxes appear at the bottom too.. So is this some internal bug, or is it possible somehow to posotion the toastWindow? Thx in advance 
btw,w here can i find some documentation on the messenger api?

Moved to Bug Reports, as this sounds more like a Plus!'s own problem
As for the Messenger API, please download it off here: http://shoutbox.menthix.net/attachment.php?pid=211834

Are you usgin the last version of plus (3.01.94) ? I don't have that problem
RE: Toastbox Problem by k3muri on 06-23-2004 at 10:46 PM
Yeah, 3.01.94, i just download it the day before yesterday..
Okay i just did a little more testing.. In my first post i forgot to mention that i'm using a dual monitor setup
The problem only occurs if have my taskbar at the secondary monitor. Whater the position of the taskbar is (top/bottom), the toast will always appear at thebottom right corner of the secondary monitor..
If i move the taskbar to the primary monitor, and turn off the secondary monitor,everything works just fine....
I wonder if Patchou ever going to fix this

yeah, i already got raceproUK's pdf about the messenger plus api
I looked int the original messenger api, to find out how to popup messenger's own toastboxes, but couldn't find anything out..
