Clear chat screen by afmrp on 05-18-2011 at 01:32 PM

Hello,

Is there any script or feature
that can allows you to clear the
chat screen, like Pidgin (Ctrl+L) and Spark (right click>erase)
in Msn ?

Thanks in advance

Af

This cannot be done because of how the internals work for WLM.

[13:40] Patchou: go ahead
[13:40] Matty: i wrote a script to utilize a /clear command which clears the history text using Active Accessibility. There are a few side affects though
- the start of a message has * then the bullet then the message
- emoticons have their code followed by the emoticons at the END of the message
- plus! chat logging seems to no longer work

[13:41] Patchou: you can't clear stuff in there. If you remove emoticons, the internal tracking count of Messenger gets messed up
[13:42] Patchou: everywher you get a *, that means an object of some kind (like a picture) has been inserted
[13:42] Matty: i was thinking it was something internal to messenger
[13:42] Patchou: if that was that simple, /clear would still be in Plus!
