Well to clarify a bit Nic, What I should of said is that if the most current message should be 'focused' or displayed without having to scroll (up or down) every time a line comes across. Currently it is .. well for lack of better words.. nuts. :-) They just need to code it to autoscroll when a message is received - weather it be on top or bottom (bottom would be correct). I've have it running.. actually we were probably the 3rd company in the world to have it running.. before the hack fixes.. mystery port problems.. Nat.. etc etc etc.. We still have concerns such as when just two clients are have a session.. if one of the client minimizes there window and reopens it the program on the other client machine will launch two separate apps.. Dual windows if you will. Both windows on that other client are functional too.. We've had great hopes of introducing this to several businesses but just can't put kudos on it yet.
Thanks Nic for the input and for correcting me, ~Rick ----- Original Message ----- From: "nic. schellekens" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, February 18, 2003 3:10 PM - SATCOM Subject: RE: [IpswitchIM_Forum] Scrolling > Rick, as you may have seen from my previous postings I haven't exactly been > beaming with joy here and there.
