In addition to the above request, it would not be superfluous to add something else related to this topic, for a complete set of mIRC design customization via scripts.

Suggestion: To add/change/delete a background for the "Listbox" and "Editbox" through the "/background" command.
At the moment, this can only be configured via the "mIRC Colors" dialog box, which limits our possibilities.

Therefore, I propose to add two new switches "-i" and "-z[N]", where N = 1 (color active field), N = 2 (color inactive field). If N is not specified, then the color will be for both.

An example of using commands:

  • Listbox # (RGB): /background -i #test $rgb(25,25,29)
  • Listbox @ (RGB): /background -i @test $rgb(28,28,32)
  • Listbox # (Image): /background -ti #test image\background1.jpg
  • Listbox @ (Image): /background -ti @test image\background2.jpg


  • Editbox # (RGB): /background -z #test $rgb(10,11,12)
  • Editbox @ (RGB): /background -z @test $rgb(15,16,17)
  • Editbox ? (RGB): /background -z1 Epic $rgb(20,21,22)
  • Editbox ? (RGB): /background -z2 Epic $rgb(30,31,32)



Note: If an image is used as the background, then also the corresponding "-cfnrtp" switches should be available for this. Thank.
