Problem with personalized status by jospint on 01-11-2009 at 02:42 PM

Hi,

I've installed the latest version of Messenger (14.0.8050.1202) and the new Beta of Plus! (4.79.0.353) and I have found some small problems related to personalized status:

1.When you want to creat a new status, the show me as option gives option to put dissapeared status in WLM9 (Be right back, Out to Lunch and In a Call)

2.Sometimes (only sometimes), when you change from one of the 3 default states to a personalized states, the name tag of pesonalized states dissapear.

3.The most importan bug is this: When you close session while you have a personalized status, next time when you start a new session, if you want to start as disconnected you will start in the personalized status thay you had when you closed session in the last time.

Hope this info can be useful;)

I imagine these will be removed in the final version.

If you're saying that when you set a personal status and then close messenger, when you next open it and sign back in the personalised status is still there?

I believe this has always been the case, so that if you get signed out by a network problem when messenger reconnects you still have the status applied. (Else you could be set to {OUT}, get disconnected and then be signed back in and you'd no longer be {OUT} even though you weren't there =p)

After doing some testing it seems it only does this if you change from any status to either Busy or Available after applying a personal status. I'm not sure if this is intended behaviour or not though.

OK. For the 3rd problem I posted, with past messenger and plus! version i think this problem never happened. Although I'm not completely sure.

Thanks for your quick reply!
