Custom Smiley Manager
(Preliminary overview - More help/documentation as I find the time! ;)

The custom smiley manager is a new feature and remains in Beta version, I have tried to provide as much information as possible below.

 

Image below shows the 3 states of the smiley manager:

  • Yahoo: Displays the default Yahoo smileys
  • Own Custom: Displays your own customised smileys
  • Remote: Displays the custom smileys you have assigned for the current person

Every left mouse click cycles through the 3 states. If you have not assigned any custom smileys the default Yahoo will be displayed.

 

Right click users name to assign a custom smiley set.

 

Right click the custom smiley manager icon to display option menu:

From here you can assign your own custom smiley set to be used in the chat window,

Creating new smiley set:  Will create a new set of smileys in the YEmote smiley directory for you to customise and assign to a user. (default location is: C:\Program Files\YEmote5\Smileys)

Force Update: YEmote will copy the custom smiley directories to the Yahoo messenger at startup; To save time this will not be done if the folder exists, to take into account any changes you may have made to the YEmote custom smiley folders you should select this menu and restart YEmote.

  • Set Display Options:

    • Swap Yahoo Smileys to match YEmotes: The smiley graphics used by Yahoo Messenger are also swapped to match those in YEmote E.g. if you assign custom1 set of smileys to a user and their smileys are shown in YEmote, you will also see these smileys used in your chat windows.

    • Always Use My Smileys In Yahoo: The smileys displayed in the chat window will always be those you have assigned to yourself, YEmote can still display the set used by a remote person, but will not be used in the chat window.


    Update

Fixes some problems with the new version of messenger. Menu item added to update custom smiley sets to be compatible with new version.
