Re: iSphere msg missing Reply box

Works for me under Win 7, even when signed on to a 5250 session with the MSGQ(*BREAK).

Right click the message (with the "?") > select MESSAGE DETAILS and the iSERIES MESSAGE window appears. (Alternatively, just double-click the message.) The REPLY field appears as the last item.

WARNING: I had to enlarge the iSERIES MESSAGE window to see the REPLY field - it may be hidden. (There are no vertical/horizontal scroll bars to suggest more information available.)

NOTE TO TOOLS/400 TEAM: Just a suggestion or two to enhance the iSphere Messages subsystem.
- Change the title in the Message Details window from iSERIES MESSAGE to IBM i MESSAGE
- Enable vertical/horizontal scrolling in the Message Details window
- Add an extra item to the subsystem context menu to SEND a message, maybe a front-end to CALL QEZSNDMG? (I know we can prompt SNDMSG and SNDBRKMSG commands within RDi, but a graphical interface similar to the old Access for Windows System i Navigator SEND function would be very handy.)

Subject: [WDSCI-L] iSphere msg missing Reply box

I'm using the iSphere msgq plugin for RDi. When I get an inquiry message, I get the dialogue, but there's no textbox for the reply. All I can do is click OK, which leaves the message still pending. I was using the current release version, so I installed the current beta to see if that made a difference. It didn't. Is there anything Windows-specific in the msgq plugin?



Fedora 25

RDi 9.5.1.1

iSphere 3.0.0.b004
