Patchou is going to be adding Vista effects into Plus! not sure if it is for the next release or not.

RE: Windows Vista :: 3DStacked Windows Bug
Just wanted to point out two things.

This bug has been around since the first release build of Messenger Plus! Live (400) and Beta 2 of Vista. I have the final now and it is still there (as it would by your explanation).

The annoying thing is that the taskbar doesn't flash anymore. I could care less about the missing window, however, I need the taskbar to flash, quite simply because I mute my PC a lot of times.

Hopefully Patchou will release a new fixed build soon.

OT: Does anyone know why no manufacturer's are releasing any/final drivers for Vista?

Vista has only just been released, wait a few days. And if there ins t any updates youll just have to use an alternative.

As mentiond before, Patchou needs to get his hands on a copy of Vista, untill then, we will just have to wait.

This also happens with me on XP but with a Toshiba application to do with my touchpad where it is similar to alt+tab as you can select the window you want.  I just didn't think to report this as a bug as I doubted it would be common and felt there were more important issues pending. 

More specifically about the features of the program, it lists all the windows (including each chat individually and the tabs window as a seperate one) and only shows the preview for the currently open chat when hovered over.  With any other program it shows a preview as well, though Enhancer does hide the contact list so it isn't visible there either.  I'll muck around with making windows hidden or shown over the next couple of days to see what it does with them as well and I will write some more about it.

I wish I could give more in-depth information on the program but all I have is the exe for it, if you want some more info about it then i'll be happy to oblige.

Btw, the exe is called padexe.exe and is for the touchpad of a Toshiba Satellite M60-700 (Australian model number, don't know if it is the same elsewhere) and it is probably the samefor other models too, but that is the one i have (and it is the most current).

Create a new script and put the following code in it.
code:
function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(ChatWnd, Origin, Message, MessageKind){
    Interop.Call("User32", "FlashWindow", ChatWnd.handle, true);
}
That does the trick for me.

Patchou has had his hands on Vista for ages and is/would be aware of these incompatibilities with Vista. Just disable the buggy features for now i'm assuming they'll be fixed when he releases the special version of Plus! with the winning scripts.

A similar bug applies for WindowBlinds. When one tries to switch tabs, the window container is redrawn, and due to incompatibilities with certain WindowBlinds functions, the window frame becomes 1 pixel smaller both widthwise and lengthwise. It would be better if it worked without me having to resize it constantly.
