Forums Scripts & Popups Window Font Size

Hi - I've tried to get a window to open with a specified font size according to the mIRC help guide, but it dosn't seem to do it. Any ideas on how I can get this window to open with fint size 9?

window -g1kz0 @LIST.ALL

Thanks in advance!

/window [-abBcCdeEfg[N]hikl[N]mnoprRsvwxz] [-tN,..,N] [+bdeflLmnstx] <@name> [x y [w h]] [/command] [popup.txt] [font [size]] [iconfile [N]]

note the [font [size]]
means u MUST state the fontname and then optionally the size

so

window -g1kz0 @LIST.ALL fontname 9


**** NOTE this is a real font size NOT the skewed font sizes the font dialog box uses ****

If your manually setting it using the dialog, and then returning to your script and doing it, then it wont match, do this...

(1) Dialog select your wanted font size
(2) //echo -s $window(@LIST.ALL).fontsize
(3) insert statuswindow displayed fontsize into script

Also, font names that have spaces would need to have "quotes"
(like "courier new")

great thanks DaveC - it's working now. I see what you mean by the size difference - I actually had to specify 12 for it show up as 9 in reality...

Cheers!

Thanks MikeChat

more likely its the other way around, becuase the FONT DIALOG uses incorrect values, incorrect in the sence that /window and $window both use the same and give the same font size, but the dialog uses a different one.
