How to prevent new messages to auto-open?

Post by joerg.battermann »

Hello there,

I am new to Adium and I was wondering whether there is any setting (couldn't find it) which allows me to disable adium's behaviour to auto-open new, incoming messages and instead only e.g. flash on the contact list or bounce the tray icon etc?


thanks,
-joerg

a workaround to get this behaviour, is to open any window and minimize it to you dock.
If you have tabs, I think it won't pop up.

I'd bet there's a trac ticket on this. If not, there should be.

Any new ground on this issue? I use Adium at work and occasionally get messages I don't want my supervisor or co-workers to see pop up.

I know it's been over a year since this last post, but I still do not see this feature in the current version, 1.2.5 or the 1.3b3 beta. Maybe someone's got an apple script to do this, or knows if/when this will be implemented.
Anyone?

Code: Select all

				tell application "Finder" to set visible of process "Adium" to 0
run this as a .scpt when a new message is received

The problem with that though is if he has one IM open that he's typing in, it will hide if another comes in
