Rick, as you may have seen from my previous postings I haven't exactly been beaming with joy here and there. But, and I can assure you of this, there is a bunch of people behind the system who have been most supportive with a number of issues we found. LIke I did, hang in there, things will come to a better ending I am sure. Regarding the newest message shown on top I beg to differ, simply because of the fact that we're testing stuff for use by visually impaired people. Doing what you suggest would mean that a voice synthesizer would start rereading the whole conversation from the top, which would kill a person in 3 minutes. Compare it with MSN (mega yuck), they do it bottom up as well.
In short, keep on ploddiung away like we did, and things will start to work (we have already had IIM systems running with users from different locations and networks, and it went bloody well.

'This is how EVERYONE else in the WORLD does it' and it makes sense. Sorry for the harshness but this product has been a thorn with me from the begining.. cheers, ~Rick > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Attila > Balogh > Sent: Tuesday, February 18, 2003 2:20 PM - FamHost > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [IpswitchIM_Forum] Scrolling > > > Conversations are usually minimized - you don't want to keep those on > top of your open windows.
