Sign out button in conversation window by BrendanL on 11-12-2006 at 06:05 AM
Can anyone create a script or something so the sign out button is in the convo window? ![[Image: signoutbuttonrn1.jpg]](http://img299.imageshack.us/img299/4285/signoutbuttonrn1.jpg)

You can type "/signout" into the text area and signout that way with messenger plus! but if you want something like a button like that I would recommend you ask the developers of mess path or a-patch for this as it is a lot more likely to be added there (not to mention this isn't simple like most other scripts as this requires patching messenger itself).

Thanks, I have no idea about scripting and patching, I just keep asking developers to do something that is impossible to do within a script.

It might be possible to do this with a script but it wouldn't be practible in use, because you need to restart messenger each time you add or remove that button anyways.
So doing this with a script would be almost useless...
Do as markee suggested and ask the developpers of A-Patch and/or MessPatch to add it in their patches.

yeah I guess I could do that.

well, I guess it could be done using the same technique Timezone uses. just replace the clock in it with a button.
I don't know if you can make it look as nice as the other buttons (don't know that much about PlusWnds), but it would be a signout button in the chatwindow

This could work but I wouldn't recommend anyone adding any button to the chat window through msgplus. Because it is only floating over the window you can have problems when you change the size of the window and it also would take a great deal of effort to get it sitting correctly to begin with. If it was part of a patch then this would be a lot nicer to use and would fit better. That's just my opinion anyway.
Btw, it wouldn't be overly difficult to do with some ajdustment to Timezone but for the reasons I have stated, I wouldn't like to be the one to make that script considering there could be a lot of complaining about it not being right. I think there has been a discussion about adding buttons to the chat window through scripts already but I'm too lazy to go searching for it.

yeah I see. I'm still waiting for some patch developer to make it

Thats my usual suggestion with things of this nature. It is a pain to position correctly though. I either try to adapt the TimeZone script or use code for the iTunes+ miniplayer (in the contact list)

Well everyone, I finally got my sign-out button! On mess.be for the new Mess Patch, it says,

- Rest in peace, Mess.be custom games...
- And for some bad ass bug fixing: the CustoMess button will now appear correctly if the software is installed (reported by salus), the search bar on the contact list gets removed properly and the "Get accessories" link now gets removed completely (both reported by Mad_Griffith).
