history display options

Post by sabotaaage »

instead of having the history arranged by people, there should be a choice on how it shoudl be arranged, ie by day, because sometimes id like to see who i was talking to on what day.

I long for this feature, as well. In case anybody wanted my two cents. ;)

Seriously, though - my ideal solution for this is fairly complex to implement, but would let you actually sort ALL the messages by date. I could probably come up with an intermediate solution simply sort log files (days) by date, which is what you're suggesting, but I think I'll probably just go straight for the big solution - especially since in the process I should be able to implment other very handy features, like a global history search.

lists rather than dropdown menus

Post by nirvana »

anyway,
the history viewer would be MUCH better if it had a buddy "list" to scroll through, rather than a pull down menu. it might look sort of like a nick list in mirc. it would be easier/faster to find the name you are looking for.
also, it might be nice if logs of the first person on the list didnt show up every time you opened the history viewer.

Great request, this would really come in handy for me. Having it sorted by days and times etc would be really nice. I know what a headache it'll be to implement but after it's done it'll be real nice :)

I posted a replacement for AIM+'s history viewer and it DOES sort by date. It also has a simple search function. It will search for log files, but it won't search within them. I've found it to be really slow in VB. Anyway, you can get it here:

Just rename the old history viewer and unzip it to your AIM+ folder.

Log by Screenname

A cool idea would be able to able/disable logging for different screennames on the same machine! Because I dont want to know what my mom talks about when she is using AIM!

i think it would be nice to save some on the conversations you wanted and then delete everything else....i know you can do it but you have to go into the history viewer and everything....so i think that would be nice
