Bigger Quick Icon Panel? by kruppski on 12-09-2007 at 06:58 PM
Hi.
Since Messenger Plus became Messenger Live Plus, I've been waiting for the Quick icon panel to get bigger. Alot bigger. As it is now, it's an endless scrolling if you have lots of emoticons.
Even in the setup of panel sections, the panel is bigger than the one you get when typing "(" in a chat.
It would be great if the user could change the size of the panel somehow. Even if it's still just a fixed window, but by pixel x pixel or "small, medium, large" in the setup or something.
What do you think?
Thanks

I'll add an option for that if you want in the next version 
RE: Bigger Quick Icon Panel? by CookieRevised on 12-09-2007 at 07:16 PM
Personally I think an option to resize it might be very nice.
However, you can already display a lot of emoticons on one panel.
And you can create many panels (that's what they are there for).
Even adding a few sets of alphabets can be done in just 1 panel. So I also don't see how the quick icons toolwindow is too small, provided you do use seperate panels to order your emoticons in categories of course, instead of adding 3000 icons in one panel....
EDIT: Wiiiii

CookieRevised: I only see 40 emoticons at once. That means I have to scroll around alot to find what I'm searching for. I don't order my emoticons in categories.
Patchou: That would be awesome, thank you!

It takes to long to...
1. Bring up the panel
2. Chose the right category
3. Find the icon in question
That's why I don't organize them. I want to just bring up the panel, quickly find the one I want, and get on with the chat. Just need a better overview

But it takes even more time to scroll down thousands of emoticons as you stated 
RE: Bigger Quick Icon Panel? by kruppski on 12-09-2007 at 10:28 PM
Chrono: As it is now, yes. That's why I need a bigger panel. The panel is only 236x148 pixel. My screen resolution is 1680x1050!
...and I only have about 500 emoticons. It's still a pain to scroll through them.

yes i agree with u and i hope Patchou do it in the next version
RE: Bigger Quick Icon Panel? by kezz on 12-12-2007 at 10:01 PM
That'd be very handy indeed. Never thought of that
RE: Bigger Quick Icon Panel? by Apatik on 12-12-2007 at 11:08 PM
Who needs so many emoticons anyway?
RE: Bigger Quick Icon Panel? by kruppski on 03-19-2008 at 11:21 PM
No bigger quick icon panel in v4.60 
RE: Bigger Quick Icon Panel? by Patchou on 03-19-2008 at 11:46 PM
I didn't want to bother the translators for this new verison. It will be added in the next one
RE: Bigger Quick Icon Panel? by kruppski on 03-21-2008 at 12:59 AM
That's understandable. Thanks

Hi, Patchou, and thanx for your great MSN add-on.
I'm happy to see that you've planned to make the Quick Icon Panel bigger (I've installed the subversion 324 but this option isn't available), but I suggest you to make it resizable.
Also, if possible, do you can add an option to see the emoticons in the panel at a custom/real size and/or animated?!?
Many emoticons seem identical, but when you select one of these, sometimes you've made the wrong choice.
Thanx.
