Before switching to Miranda IM, I used RnQ for a long time. One of its main features was a mode when the contact list and the messages window act as a single window.

So I had to write my own plugin for Miranda which does exactly the same - makes it work AsSingleWindow.

Alpha version demo

Beta version
#

  • The plugin now works with any message module — whether it’s TabSRMM, Scriver, or the default srmm.dll.
  • Fixed handling of multiple message windows. For now, they just line up in sequence; in the future, I plan to implement behavior where only the first window docks to the contact list.
  • Fixed window desynchronization that occurred when minimizing via the taskbar and then clicking the tray icon.
  • Fixed issues with maximizing windows (see the video). Aligning windows to the left/right edge in Windows 7 (Win+Left, Win+Right) is not fully implemented yet.
  • Partially fixed behavior with the contact list’s autosize option. Windows no longer jitter, but they still resize a bit strangely. I’d love feedback from users of this feature on how it should work.
  • Added a settings window — although it doesn’t do anything yet :) I’ll implement everything in it by the next release. Suggestions are welcome!

RC - v.0.1.2

  • You can now place the contact list on either the left or right side of other windows;
