Never used it. I'll install it and see if I get the same behavior.

The logic when clicking the system tray is to hide the main window only 
if it is already the active window. So if the main window is visible, 
but not active, it will only be raised. The sticky flag is always set 
when showing regardless if the window was hidden before.

Do you need to click twice even when the main window already is in focus 
or is there something else in focus when you see this behavior?


If you disable the "Sticky main window" setting, does the main window 
still get placed too high?

I've added fifo commands "ui_showuserlist" and "ui_hideuserlist" as new 
features for future Licq 1.7.0.

Fixed, also for 1.7.0.

No, you didn't miss anything. I was away during christmas and just 
forgot this thread so it's a good thing you reminded me.
