"You can use Ctrl+Alt+Tab to go to the next flashing chat or to restore the original chat window when no more flashing windows are present. This shortcut is very useful when talking to a lot of people."



That, as you will probably agree with me, is one of the most useful things of the tabbed chat feature of MsgPlus!. However, this little goody won't work on Windows Vista.
The new OS uses Ctrl+Alt+Tab to display Alt+Tab, but to keep it on display until you manually choose a window (not until you release the alt key as it would normally do).

Is there a way, to either tell MsgPlus! to use another shortcut key for this "go to the next flashing chat" feature or to disable Vista's Ctrl+Alt+Tab shortcut?

I'm still wondering why I haven't seen anything regarding this by now as Vista's been around for a while and it REALLY is sth annoying...

Patchou said this would be a limitation on Vista when we beta-tested Plus! Live.

and can't anything be done? any script or patch or sth?
even sth to modify Windows?

Guys, it's version 4.5 and we still haven't got a solution to this little problem and no live preview when using Flip 3D or switching between windows.

Is it really that hard or is there something else that makes it impossible  to be done?

They are currently limitations that may be fixed in a future release, if possible.

guys.. any updates regarding this?

Last week I used an XP machine and God I miss this feature.

Maybe a script with a different key combination would do. I would do it myself but i don't know how... and learning would take ages.

As a workaround you can use CTRL+TAB (and CTRL+SHIFT+TAB) to simple switch between tabs. This wont jump directly to the next flashing tab, but it works just as quick, you only need to press it a few times more.

Yes, that's exactly what I'm currently using, but the other way was much quicker.
