Forums Bug Reports /dialog -s with menubar

I've ran into a little snag when trying to mimic a dialog's size using $dialog().cw/ch and /dialog -s. It appears that $dialog().ch doesn't include the height of the menubar if one is present, making it impossible to recreate a dialog's size using commands.

I'm posting this as a bug although I'm not sure if it's really a missing feature. Should $dialog().ch include the menubar's height? If not, there needs to be an additional switch or parameter to -s for /dialog to have mIRC account for the menubar on top of the height given.

.h includes the titlebar.

.ch is the height of the client area (ie. what you can draw or place controls on) of the dialog.

Edit: I just noticed you said menubar. As far as I know there's no way of doing what you're looking for, but I still don't think .ch should return the menubar height as it's not in the client area.

Indeed. Thinking about it $dialog().ch definitely shouldn't include the menubar height. It seems to me the bug is that /dialog -s includes the menubar as part of the height parameter, whereas it wouldn't be if specified directly from the size value of a dialog table.
