    Scroll down automatically when new messages are received

    Even when chat window is open, and new message is received, it doesn't scroll down, I always need to press the three-dots button on bottom right to see latest messages, very counter-productive.

    Please enable automatic scroll to prevent having to move my tired little mouse cursor always to chat screen.

          How can this not be fixed 2 years later? At least have an option to auto-scroll or not. It makes you wonder if Microsoft uses its own products, but no one would put up with this given a choice.

          Mine just started acting up yesterday, and it's annoying as ****. When I have a conversation with a person, what they say gets bundled into it's own little "box" (conversation), and so does mine. I assume this is the same problem everyone else is having?

          This is absurdly annoying, I can't believe it's been an issue this long. Fix this **** Skype. :/

          Right click on the conversation in left hand menu and select "mark as read" - now when you go into the conversation it takes to straight to the bottom.

          1.25 years later. Is an auto scroll option really too much to include?

          trusting the microsoft customer care service management to modify this :D

          Please make an option to settings to choose how this works. Or add "Auto Scroll" button to active chats so we can choose. Thanks!

          still waiting....here complaint from collegues now and then that it delays chat correspondance.

          This is a must. I have a multiscreen setup, and monitor conversations on my second screen while having a fullscreen application on my primary monitor. The lack of auto-scroll option means that I have to minimise my fullscreen application and interact with Skype just to see the messages that are coming in. PLEASE add an auto-scroll option for when Skype is unfocused.

          I totally agree with this as well - Skype should auto-scroll.
          It is very annoying!

        • Frank Wallace commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

          i totally agree - auto-scroll to bottom is a much needed feature - if some do not like it, make it configurable, but
          it should surley be an option that may be enabled.
          I suspect a majority will opt to enable it !!!
