MSN Docking by DJVJ on 12-25-2004 at 10:38 PM

Whenever im using msn, it kinda gets on my way, esp wen im busy. But i always seem to be checking whose online and keep goin bak to it. so if i close it (and it goes to the bottom right), i always have to keep opening it.

My idea is to dock it onto a chosen side of the screen, and slides out wheneva u put the mouse over a little bit of msn sticking from the side.

Winamp does this already, but not that well. u can set the toolbar (where the start button is etc) to do this as well. it would be nice for messenger to do this.
Thanks

This can already be done, just put the window to the edge of the screen and it should resize itself and scroll in, if not, then I think that you need to go to Plus! > Preferences > Contact List then tick the 'Allow docking to....' option in that window,

I can't do it?


RE: MSN Docking by DJVJ on 12-26-2004 at 01:57 PM

it docks, but it don't slide in and out. it should stay on top of n e programs such as MSN word, and slide out wen the mouse goes over a little tab or sumthing.

It should slide in if you have the latest version of msn messenger, I don't think that it works with msn 7 though, I know for a fact that it does with 6.2

That's not true. You were never able to do that, not with any version of Messenger.

I know its been an awful long time since i last posted, or this topic was created or replied to, but does anyone have this plugin yet?
Im going to attempt to learn to create plugins of my own, but if anyone is able to do this in the meantime, please do. :)
