Codefisher.org Forums : Feature Requests and their Status

I'm not sure if you'd call this a feature or a bug, but with Thunderbird I notice that when it's minimized to the tray, when I get a pop-up alert for a new email and click on the alert, the Thunderbird window pops up then immediately minimizes back to the tray.

It'd be nice to just click on the pop-up and have the window open.

I just installed 1.03, but I get the exact same behaviour.
Oh well, it's a minor thing. This is still a really handy extension.

Thank you for this great add-on that i use on thunderbird.

I'd love to see some new features:
1. ask the master password before restoring application
2. place icon on tray although it is not minimized and clicking the icon minimizes the application.
3. an option to place minimize icon on toolbar.

thanks in advance

just noticed to merged them

been trying to i thought some were vista (hate the OS) specific
One of the flowing:
    Only show one tray icon.
    Only show one system tray icon.
    Only show one tray icon at a time.
    Only show one system tray icon at a time.
For people that don't know what a tray icon is:
    Only show one tray icon. (By the clock)
    Only show one system tray icon. (By the clock)
    Only show one tray icon at a time. (By the clock)
    Only show one system tray icon at a time. (By the clock)
or link tray icon/system tray icon to a picture or page
i honestly took a wile to figure out what it meant it read smother without the 'ever'

Yes I guess the word "ever" does not really add much except possible confusion.

As to the request, no that is certainly not easily doable.  Trying to mess with that could totally screw up everything.

I think it would start go beyond what I want the extension to be. 

Also when I checked the windows API for M$ windows it does not look like there is any easy way or doing it.  So I guess if it can be done it would be horribly messy.

Known problem, It is my current easy way around another problem.  I am looking for a more permeate solution.

I that sounds fairly easy to do.  I will tray and get that fixed in the next day or so.

Note to self the functions are BrowserTryToCloseWindow() and BrowserCloseTabOrWindow()

The current version on the extensions home page, 1.0.6 should install, and more importantly work.  Anything in the 0.7 series is totally broken in anything based of Firefox 3

Sorry Micheal, dl'd and installed ver 1.5 and it works like a charm.  Dunno why I didn't find this before.  Apologize for the confusion on my part....
