Hello everyone,
I've been using RC for years and now need to develop a plug-in for a customer.
My plug-in opens a second window when a message is previewed or replied to. In both cases the URL of the new window refers to an external software which provides additional info to a given message ID.
I already solved opening the second window after the right events.
How to retrieve the message ID?
- When a message is previewed I already get its UID which seems to be RC's own
way of identifying messages. I need to "translate" that to the global message ID which can be used by external software.
- When a message is replied to all information about the original message
seems to be passed by the "id" parameter in the URL for the compositor. I find it even more difficult to retrieve the original message's ID here.
I already spent some time listening to the right events and opening the 2nd window which is now working. Hopefully you'll be able to give me some hints how to get the message IDs.
Kind regards Daniel Böhmer
