PSM change by script still not working properly by foaly on 06-16-2011 at 04:10 PM
In the latest changelog it was mentioned that setting the PSM by script was fixed.
Sadly it still doesn't work properly, it either doesn't do anything or it opens a Chrome browser and enters the PSM text there...
anyone else experiencing problems?

There is a bug reported about psm script on the initialize event.
Which script are you testing?
RE: PSM change by script still not working properly by Spunky on 06-16-2011 at 05:56 PM
Works fine when setting outside of OnInitialize (ie 1000ms timer; a 100ms timer just fails silently works fine too)
OnInitialize enters the text in the script editor =/ (As it does if you call it outside of a function.)

it is my own private script,
it's being called from:
Javascript code:function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(ChatWnd,Origin,Message,MessageKind){
if(Message.charAt(0) == "!"){
parseCommands(Message,ChatWnd,Origin);
//(..)
case'link':
setLink(params,Origin,wnd);
break;
//(..)
if(linkdoel.substr(0,7) == "http://" || linkdoel.substr(0,6) == "mms://"){
Messenger.MyPersonalMessage = "(" + Origin + ") " + linktekst + " -> http://link.foaly.nl";
can a skin influence the way the code works?

Wouldn't have thought so. Only if the PSM element in the contact list has been moved out of it's containers. Try without a skin to find out; I'm going to test it on the OnChatWndReceived_Event
EDIT:
Javascript code:function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(ChatWnd, Origin, Message){
if(Origin !== Messenger.MyName){
Messenger.MyPersonalMessage = Message.split(" ")[0];
}
}
This works for me without a skin
EDIT2:
Also works fine with Evo and Metro as the current skin (Haven't got any skins that move the PSM anywhere though I think)

Ok, I'm using hide and peek, and I did kinda butchered through the def files
I'll try without it when I'm back home...RE: PSM change by script still not working properly by foaly on 06-19-2011 at 02:37 PM

I'm using ebuddy in chrome to trigger the event, and it will just open a new chrome window and type the text in the browser window...
So somehow the switch to main window event isn't properly executed...
Therefor ctrl-n opens a new window instead of focusing the PSM field...

Hey 
I had a similar problem last week and after the system update everything works perfectly
RE: PSM change by script still not working properly by V@no on 06-20-2012 at 03:27 AM
A year later and the bug still there? Seriously?
And on top of that, changing PSM also opens main WLM window and steals focus?

I just realized MP!L is "typing" the message in the status field? It opens WLM main window and then literally types stuff in, but if something else is opened and focused, like browser window or text editor, it types in that window instead. How f.ed up is that?
We'd better off doing some AutoIt script that would work better then this...

RE: PSM change by script still not working properly by Spunky on 06-22-2012 at 01:28 PM
Yeah, but in terms of programming, it's frowned upon. I suspected it was something like this when it was fixed and why foaly was having trouble with skins (Element is not in the same place)
RE: PSM change by script still not working properly by V@no on 06-23-2012 at 04:25 AM
I could possible live with wlm popping up and maybe even if it steals focus, but not when I type something in text editor, wlm popping up and I see text showed up in text editor that I haven't typed - that's not acceptable.
P.S.
Just curious, what previous version you are referring to? WLM or MP!L?
