Hi

Why is it not a bug? mIRC is the active application and the alias should run when i call it. For some reason when a dialog is open the alias does not run, but it will run when a window is opened using /window @window. I call that inconsistency.

I wanted to use it so i could switch through dialogs, i don't have mIRC installed but here is one example i would have used it for, please forgive code errors as i do not have the help file handy, but the message should be clear

Code:
alias F4 {
if ($dialog(dialog1)) {
dialog -k dialog1
dialog -m $str(dialog2 $+ $chr(32),2)
}
else dialog -m $str(dialog1 $+ $chr(32),2)
}


My point is i can access all my dialogs with one press of a key and scroll through them at ease. But i cannot as i cannot call an alias using an F key when a dialog is the active window.
