Oh and sorry for the PM, it seems you replyed while I was writing you the PM

PM: sorry I clicked the PM away. I did not know about this feature in this forum, so did not know what it was and clicked it away.
I appreciate your effort in making the container exe and offer to fix the bugs. Don't spent to much time on it though, I am very picky (I work in a QA lab for a software company so I always find something to complain :)...). There are already plugings to get tabbed windows, and although they don't work for msn7, I can wait for it, or install msn6 for now. I may even go back and continue using Trillian...

thanks, JeePee

RE: Looking for a 'container' plugin
Hello.

I have fixed the following bugs:

Conversation(s) do not go to the container window if there are open conversation when opening the program: When you open the program, the current open conversation window(s) will be moved to the container window.

Close all conversations before exiting program: In the last version, you needed to close all open conversations to exit the program. Now when you close the program, all the open conversations will be set free.



New bug found: When using the "Nudge" feature on Msn Messenger 7, the window will slide down of the container window for no reason. To fix this, you have to close the program and right click on the conversation nudge was used and click move. Then using your keyboard, move the window so you can see it in the screen...



Download Container

Note: The program file size has been reduced about 13 KBs!



A question: Should I add tabs to the program or just leave it the way it is?

Thanks, I have a look at it tonight when I am back home.

Tabs would be a nice (optional) feature. And a real plugin would also be nice :)

thx

RE: Looking for a 'container' plugin
Hmmmm I have been thinking about tabs...
They are possible but there is one problem...

If you have many conversations open, and someone talks to you, you wont be able to know who talked to you :(

You would have to go through all tabs...

Anyway I'll try and code this feature (y)

RE: Looking for a 'container' or tabbed conversation plugin
BTW my poll is to have tabbed convos (like cameno/tabbed msn/SP:NG) as a feature in plus not a plugin/standalone app and also, not a container like you have requested/has been made

but hey i may be getting the complete wrong end of the stick here who knows  either way i want tabs >.< :)

Agree, this as a feature in plus would even be better then a separate plugin (it should definitly not be a standalone app!)

Container or tabs, it all the same stuff. To have tabs, you add all the chat sessions as tabs in a single 'container' window. See the screen shot in the first reply in this threath to see what I mean.
