Skype updates have been coming pretty quickly lately, so it's possible any of this could change in the next month or two.

Narrowing your Skype window will cause the chat to move below the video. Skype is clearly moving down a 'One Microsoft' path of making it look the same on all devices.Problem is, Im not sure which device theyre picking as the basis, and this weeks update of the Mac. If you have your Skype friends list on the left (not shown in these screenshots) you can add about 200 pixels to those numbers, depending upon how big you keep your friends list.

More than 720 pixels of window-width will make the Skype chat appear on the right. If it's 720 pixels or less it appears at the bottom. The location of the chat is determined by the width of the Skype video window. When enabled, Skype's chat often appears to the right of the video. I suppose this might look good on a small laptop screen but I prefer it below the chat because I like the video oriented near my camera, which is at the top of my Mac's screen (on your landscape-oriented iPhone or iPad the camera would be centered, making this design choice possibly work better there). Inside zip file, exist all conversations with people or groups in different html files.

After open file, you can export as html zip file to your local disk, with export button. You'll likely see that the chat now appears to the right of your video. Find the main.db file: C:UsersAppDataRoamingSkypemain.db. If you don't see the button, don't worry: it will appear as soon as you move your mouse over the window. Re-enabling chat inside a Skype call is simple: just click the chat bubble button in the upper right of the call window. The new Skype makes chat invisible during calls Maybe the folks at Skype are trying to give our eyes a break from all that blue, but c hances are in both scenarios I'll have some links to share or text to type, and for that I need the now-hidden chat. I could possibly see where a video caller might want the full window to be consumed by video, but I certainly don't need a huge avatar on my screen during an audio call. One issue is that chat is now hidden as soon as you start any call, be it audio or video.

Problem is, I'm not sure which device they're picking as the basis, and this week's update of the Mac version to 6.19.0.442 certainly shows some curious choices that have been made. Skype is clearly moving down a "One Microsoft" path of making it look the same on all devices.
