Hi,

I did the combine two contacts and the info window has a side panel showing the contact accounts, i happened to close that side panel.. now i can't get it back.. i've looked around in all menus and settings and cant't find any way to get it back.
Since i don't have that panel i can't un-combine contacts.
Anyone have a clue on this?

It should show when you get info on the contact. if you hover over the metacontact in your list, does it show both contacts within it? What does it show if you then get info? (Screenshots might be appropriate).

I'm assuming you tried clicking on another meta-contact (closing the window then getting info again does it for me as well), but just to make sure I'll ask if you tried that yet.

I've tried to open the info pane on other contacts and the side panel isn't there either anymore, i've also restarted adium and cheacked all menus and settings and found no way of getting that side panel back.

Here's the info window i get when i rightclick a contact and select "Show info" then i had a side panel to the left showing the accounts, and i had just combined two contacts so both their original accounts was there.. and to un-combine then i needed that side panel :(

Clues?

Are you sure that's a meta contact? It says ICQ underneath their screen name and not Meta. The drawer will ONLY come out for Meta contacts.

Solved

Ahhh... stupid me :oops:

The way i removed it was probably by un-combine the merged contact which then ofcourse became a non-meta contact.
If i combine them again now i get the side panel i was looking for since it them again becomes a meta contact.

Thanks for your input.. :)
