Hello,

I am trying to start a new chat with a contact and add this chat as a tab in an already existing chat window. When doing so, I get the following error:

Can't create chat in that chat window.

This is the code I am using. First I retrieve all chat windows where the ID is not "-1" (I don't know why these might show up. Probably closed chat windows?). Then I check if there are any chat windows, if there are, I want to start a new chat in one of these. If there are no existing chat windows, then I create a new.

Code: Select all

set myChatWindows to every chat window where id is not "-1"
if length of myChatWindows > 0 then
	# Create new tab
	tell (account of firstContact) to make new chat with contacts {firstContact} at (item 1 of myChatWindows)
else
	# Start new chat with account of first contact
	tell (account of firstContact) to make new chat with contacts {firstContact} with new chat window
end if

Creating a new tab returns the error above. I have no problem creating a new chat window when no one exist already.

Does anyone have an idea what I am doing wrong?

Best regards,
Simon B. Støvring
