How does TweetDeck decide which account to use when I reply to a tweet?

When you have more than one Twitter account enabled in TweetDeck, it is important that TweetDeck uses the correct logic when you want to reply to a tweet.

The logic used is as follows:

  • TweetDeck will always ENABLE the account associated with the column containing the tweet you are replying to.
  • It will also DISABLE any other account that you had selected before you clicked Reply, including your Facebook and MySpace accounts
  • After you have sent a tweet, TweetDeck WILL NOT change the state of any account button automatically. therefore, if you have replied from a secondary account and wish to switch back to your default account, you must manually deselect the secondary account and reselect the prilary account before sending your update.
  • If you close and re-open the Update Window, TweetDeck will reset all buttons to having ONLY the default account selected.

If you have any ideas for how this logic may be improved, or how we can make multi-account posting work better for you, please leave us an entry in the Feature Request forum here. We are always looking for ways to improve the user experinece of TweetDeck, so your feedback will be greatly appreciated.
