O.P. [BUG] Always on top conversation windows broken by tab container window
Steps to reproduce: (tabbed chats must be enabled)
- Open a conversation window
- Make it always on top (Tools > Always on top)
- Minimise the window
- Restore the window
The conversation is no longer on top, and this only occurs with tabbed chats enabled.

Windows Vista Business (6.0.6000)
Windows Live Messenger 8.5.0517
Messenger Plus! Live 4.22.0.274

Confirmed, but isn't 'Always on top' a part of WLM itself, not a MsgPlus bug?

EDIT: Confirmed that this only occurs with Tabbed Chats enabled.


Just in case you want to know:
Windows XP Service Pack 2 (5.1.2600)
Windows Live Messenger 8.5.0517
Messenger Plus! Live 4.22.0.274

I guess the WS_EX_TOPMOST window style isn't restored properly when the window is restored.

Oh, my bad. Yes, I also confirm that it only occurs when Tabbed Chats is enabled.
