How do I enable the Signature on Stiickies v10 - Friend name instead of IP-number?

FWIW, I am using stickies8.ssk, and I am actually talking about displaying the sender's NetBIOS name instead of the IP-number.

The only way i can see is manually to register the netbios name in " Friends " with its IP .

Hi,
Thanks. Do you mean to register it in the hosts file?

See screenshot below, on how the friends are set up. Stickies still shows the IP-number of the sender. I think it may have something to do with the NetBIOS setup of the workstation(s)

Check the options "Use DNS". That will cause Stickies to perform a reverse name lookup for all incoming notes. It helps if your machine/network is able to reverse lookup the IP, so as to not slow down the app while it waits and fails to change 10.0.1.2 to "bob-pc" or similar.
