aware of using the arrowkey for a history of last
messages in the msg box.  Thanks for the info!
So should this be reported as a bug or should we
consider it the standard way Rev should operate?

Good question. It's either a bug or a feature. The arrow-key behavior has been there from the very beginning (very handy) but the initial blank message box was the usual behavior till now.

I don't know if the change in 2.9 was intended or not. If you feel like pursuing it, I'd enter it as a minor bug and see if the team agrees.

Probably, I'm an addict as Jacque: on my three computers (one Mac and two Win), Rev is very often open since days or weeks ;-)
I have just tested using the last 2.9 RC1 message box's behavior:
It is not clear: I got the last message (or last two ones separated by a quote) at opening. So it could be a feature if I had got the last message sent in the msg (even if it does not seem to have been the case with previous versions) but actually I would be inclined to think it's now a bug...
Probably without importance: just annoying.

I take the opportunity to remind all that you can find a plugin on my website named 'Message Box Picker': it's at the bottom of my plugins page because it's the first one I released some years ago (but still works :-) This utility reorganizes the message history and puts the messages into chronological order, deletes any duplicate and installs in the message box a drop-down menu that can be completely personalized and that makes it possible to bring up or to send a message with one mouse click.
Bilingual utility (installer and uninstaller.) Help stack is included.
Identical appearance on all platforms.

After having written so many plugins it's one I use every day to call back any message and execute it directly.

Best regards from Paris,
Eric Chatonet.
