I haven't played with FOP personally, but I wonder if you can just park the caller, call the party you want to transfer to and then drag/drop the caller over onto the extension's gui object to do the transfer. We just finished writing a control panel application for a client for a linux/gtk based solution: http://leebo.dreamhosters.com/images/guiApp.png We retained rights to the business objects used in the application and are almost finished writing a Windows based solution as well. http://leebo.dreamhosters.com/images/maestro.jpg I have to be honest in saying that I never thought of doing attended transfer through the GUI, but it makes a lot of sense. According to this recent post to asterisk-dev, native attended transfers are not possible through the AMI right now without the patch mentioned. I'm not a bleeding edge patch type of guy though :( http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-dev/2007-August/029206.html I don't think its a problem for our application since its functionality is completely derived from user entered AMI commands with variable substitution at execution time so I would imagine that an originate or redirect to dialplan logic could achieve this if attended transfers can be initiated from the dialplan. Anyone know if that is possible? Maybe by issuing digit tones? -- Warm Regards, Lee "Everything I needed to learn in life, I learned selling encyclopedias door to door." _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
