Feature request! by _someone_ on 10-28-2004 at 02:48 PM

Hi!
Tried this one on the Help & Support section, but figured I'd have another go here...

I'm loving the latest version.. but was wondering if there's any chance of implementing another feature which would make me SOOOO happy!!

Basically, its the desktop contacts thing (maybe available in previous versions, but only just noticed it... it ROCKS!!)
As I often have a lot of convos on at the same time, my taskbar gets cluttered with minimised windows.. so I'm wondering if there's any way to get these windows to 'dock' into the little desktop contact window?
The only other option is closing all the windows in between replying to people, but this loses my 'text recall' functions - effectively starting a new convo each time my contact says something.

Anyway - just thought I'd give it a go at asking!
Keep up the good work - everyone I know now has MsgPlus!! :P

There is something similar but instead of docking the windows onto the destktop, it uses tabs in the messenger window, it is a feature of StuffPlug (A popular Plugin for Messenger Plus!) by TheBlasphemer.

Yeah - my mate sent me a file called 'TabMSN', but as I'm a keyboard junkie, i'd really like to be able to alt+tab to the windows as they pop up (which doesn't seem possible with this plugin .. not tried the one u suggested yet tho :) ) also, when i DO use my mouse, to launch a convo by double-clicking on their desktop link, it doesn't take me to the tabbed windows at all - never mind to the right one!! :|

(thanks 4 the suggestion tho - i'll get on & d/l it! ;))
