Trillian 5 for Windows Public Beta!


Recommended Posts

Ha, awesome... I read that post and thought I remember Trillian having spellcheck (purchased Astra, but haven't used heavily since 3.1)... thanks for the link Neobond.

Hm... It looks nice, I do like it. And the syncing of chats was something I wanted from the Astra Alpha, so when they get that working it will be really great. There do seem to be some odd usability choices though. Hopefully they'll hammer out some of the quirks in the Beta...

Yeah, it does. In Astra it caused some weird flickering issues for me with the text... Hopefully that will not be the case for Trillian 5 (I didn't have the flickering problems until 4.1 IIRC)... It was annoying enough that I disabled it.

Hi this is a really great piece of software.

But does anyone know how to keep the Facebook and Twitter icons hidden. Normally they are until I open them from Trillian. Once I close the window they stay on the taskbar.

EDIT

I realised that if you hover over them they appear ^^

awesome, why is this the first i've heard of this plugin lol

The plugin system needs a lot of work. Hopefully that's in the plans for Trillian 5... The last version of that plugin was released in 2007 though and in my experience caused problems in Astra. Not sure about Trillian 5, I might try it later.

What kind of problems? I used it with astra as well and did not seem to have any sort of problems with it at all.

Anyone know when there will be an update?

They are usually pretty good about putting out updates. Seeing multiple in a month is not uncommon (on the Windows platform, anyway; the others are slower). Maybe they are working on some bigger changes that are taking longer.

Damnnn loving this program, just switched from WLM.

2 questions:

1. Any way to disable notifications for certain networks? I don't want sign-on notifications for FB Chat. edit: found out, it's in the last options tab in fb settings.

2. Any way to get rid of that [email protected] connecting to [email protected] in your chat windows (might only be applicable for WLM)?

The text entry box fickered with each key press, resized oddly, and in some cases froze. It was very annoying. It started with 4.1 I believe. There's another spell checker that someone pointed me to that does work though and was developed by Cerulean Studios. The ASpell one though had a lot of problems for me.

Can you provide a link?

I love the GUI, but I cant use it since it seems none of my contacts see the files i try to send them and also no video chat for me is a no-no.

Webcam support would be really nice, and I agree it is an area they have really been slacking. It is one of the last "big" features that trillian really needs, and I think we will see it at some point in the 5.x development cycle for this reason. Anyway, it is not a deal-breaker for me. I think T5 is the best all-around IM client on Windows for the time being.

    • draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics. Generate diagrams from text descriptions using our smart templates. Diagram faster with keyboard shortcuts. draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 changelog: Uses electron 42.4.1 Updates to draw.io core 30.2.4.

    • Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files by Usama Jawad Microsoft Purview is a pretty useful data governance, security, and management service that allows customers to gain enhanced visibility and control over their content. It's meant for commercial customers, such as organizations that are storing data at scale. As AI continues to expand and infiltrate every corner of a firm, many are a bit conscious about the technology gaining access to their confidential data. Microsoft is now making a configuration change that will allow such customers to rest easy. Right now, users within an organization have the option to apply Purview sensitivity labels (when available) to secure certain files and label them as such. For example, if you apply the "Confidential" label on an Excel file, the file will be encrypted, and a "confidential" watermark will be applied to it. So, if this file is shared with anyone, they are aware that its access is supposed to be restricted. Up until now, Microsoft was allowing some connected experiences, like its AI services, to analyze files, regardless of their sensitivity label. This is of major concern to most organizations, as a recent example highlighted how confidential emails with data loss prevention (DLP) policies like privacy labels were being uploaded to Copilot for analysis. As such, Microsoft is updating an existing Purview data label sensitivity setting that prevents "some connected experiences that analyze content", from being blocked completely from doing this. The label isn't changing, but the blocking is now being enforced across all connected services (including Copilot and other AI tools), and now extends to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Files with the label applied already will get this enhancement automatically too once it becomes available. Microsoft has urged IT admins to inform their respective helpdesk and compliance teams, update internal documentation, and review sensitivity labels to ensure that they meet their respective compliance needs. This change is tagged as MC1297982 in the Message Center. General availability is scheduled to begin in a phased manner soon and will complete by the end of next month. That said, it is important to note that this only applies to commercial customers who have a license that allows them to use Purview.
