Separate pop-up window for new 'incoming' chats
cdublyoo So you want new incoming chats to open up in a separate window automatic when they arrives? That is not possible. The only notification you can get is the notification you get when the message arrives but it will not automatic open in a separate window.
I usually when I get a couple of minutes just check the recent chats and answer the chats or mark a message as unread so I can come back to it when I have more time to answer the message.
LinusCansby Thanks for responding! It just seems a little clunky. I may have answered a chat to one person but when another chat comes in from a different person, then the Teams app flashes in the task bar with the name of the person I previously chatted with and not the new person.
Like I said, with the above workflow things soon get lost or ignored unless I periodically remind myself to go back and make sure there aren't other chats buried. It would be a nice future enhancement to have a setting to allow a new chat to pop a new window for users that manage their work that way.
Thanks again for responding Linus.
