how do I stop new chat messages from stealing mouse focus?

[Aunty Lockjaw]

In the latest official viewer, whenever a new message comes into one of the open conversations, be it private IM, group chat, or local my mouse moves instantly to that window interrupting any conversation I may have been involved in and causing posts to go to the wrong window, sometimes mid-sentence. How can I stop this from happening?  I had already watched the video 3 times about the new communications hub. Nothing in that answered my question.

you are propably on the latest version of the secondlife offcial viewer with its new CHUI communication interface.

Watch Torley's video about how to use it. 

  the new CHUI has many settings to tweak its behaviour.

Tell me about it! Its trying my patience. When I send group notices or anything but chat, the active window will switch to the main chat. When I win this battle I'll report back. All I can suggest for now is don't press enter or look away from the screen. Lol, just be aware for now where your text is appearing. I find it will switch every 20 seconds. 

...update: ok i found it, in preferences, chat, choose "flash toolbar button" on everything, it should now just flash orange, and not steal the mouse.
