Unable to reply to over 5 IMs

Not sure if this has been brought up before, but I've been noticing the following problem:

When deep in IM Hell, I can receive 5 simutaneous IMs with no problem. When the 6th and subsequent IMs come in, they're there - but I'm unable to scroll over to them unless I close one of my existing IMs.

Extremely frustrating when that 6th person is taking offence at your lack of immediate response. The IM is there - I can see it in my history window - but I can't scroll over to respond.


Anyone else notice this issue?

Clicking on the lil arrows - and I do mean clicking, as click-and-hold doesn't work for some reason - beside the tabs doesn't scroll the tabs over for you?
Also, expanding the width of the window gets you there, too. Though this is just delaying the issue rather than resolving it. :)

I've tried the clicking vs. click & hold - it doesn't seem to make a difference, unfortunately. It seems the window stops scrolling after 5.

Expanding the width of the window - that I haven't tried - great suggestion!!

I'll do some testing with it later & see what happens :)

Thanks, Jillian! :)
