or hide contacts depending on their offline status etc

How do you actually want to resize it?


RE: Automatic resize. by chowie on 06-13-2005 at 10:07 PM

Oh, I see what you mean. There is no way to do this at the moment. What would you want to happen to the offline people though when there is no scroll?

The best result you can get is to do what mwe99 said. On the main MSN Messenger window, contacts-> sort contacts by-> offline/online status. Then you can hide your offline group.

EDIT: Sorry, you already have it setup like that.

Sorry, there is no way to do what you want, but you could try posting in the plugins section to see if anyone could do it. I'm not sure if it is possible though.

afaik, It's possable, its easy to resize the window. The only hard part would be to detect how much space is needed, altough if you could tell if they are using small, large or no dp's in the contact list, you might be able to work out how much it has to move by.
