Stop Messenger taking focus by Darkness2k on 07-19-2004 at 05:17 PM

Hi all,

I've tried looking at the MsgPlus 3 settings to see if its there (to allow chat windows to overall whatever app your actually running and kick you out of the application to see the chat window).

I've not found it however.

Please can someone tell me how I can prevent Messenger overrulling my other more important programs? (i.e. Generals lol)

Thanks

in chat windows: Tools > Allways on top. Is that what you're looking for? 8-)

No, thats already unchecked.  Never used that feature anyway.
This has only started since I updated to MsgPlus3 so i'm guessing its one of its added features.

The only case when Plus gives the focus to a messenger window is when it sends an automessage or comeback message but after that, Plus restores the original window that had the focus, and you shouldn't notice it. Do you have any other program installed? Are you sure it's cause of Plus?

Hmm... Maybe its the automessage thing then... I'll disable that and see if it still does it.  I'll keep you informed.
