* Windows 8 improvements.
- Weve made a few tweaks to the default skin to improve the feel of Trillian on Windows 8. While we plan a larger overhaul for a future release, these changes should make Trillian feel more at home for those of you using Windows 8 today.
* Per-chat muting.
- You can now mute individual contacts or group chats for 1 hour, until 8am, or indefinitely. Even better, the mute state will synchronize between your devices automatically, meaning muted Windows wont send push notifications to your mobile devices!
* Do not disturb.
- The Trillian network now supports a new status, do not disturb. When you set yourself DnD, no sounds or notifications will occur, and well also do our best to avoid any other distractions such as window flashing.
* Other improvements.
- Yahoo users will appreciate reduced clutter in their chat windows with 5.5, as we now do a better job only printing status alerts here. A few bugs related to window flashing were fixed, and weve also fixed a few bugs with Twitter and our mail engine. A new simple chat view has been added that attempts to stay minimal but in a more modern style.
