Login and Nickname-Color-Selection
When you start the factchat, a Java applet opens, with a selection of chatrooms. If only one single chatroom is offered, the color selection appears immediately. As soon as you have selected a color, the chatroom opens, and you can start.
Chatting Writing messages
Now you find yourself in the chat-mode, in which you can post messages. To post, you must click anywhere within the gray region (input window). The text input cursor appears and you can then type in your text. Before you press the enter key, you have the possibility with the mouse to move and position your text area anywhere in the input window. To fix the position of your message in the input window, on order that all users read it, you must press the enter key.
Orientation and Clarity
So that you can distinguish between new and old messages, with the passing of time, you see that old messages become more and more pale and eventually disappear into the background. Therefore the newest messages are the clearest. With the help of the Zoomer (right under the input window), you can individually adjust how many messages should be displayed simultaneously in the input window.
