I did some searching but don't want to spend a whole
lot of time searching for it. I found some results for
adding Apply button for the script editor but not for
mIRC options .. this would be a nice addition instead
of having to click the Ok button and then re-open
mIRC options .. I know it's not a huge deal and maybe
I'm being a bit lazy .. but it would still be nice. smile

This is a good suggestion, though the delivery could use some work wink

An apply button for the mirc options would be great.


If I knew now what I will know then... maybe things will have been different...

You cannot do anything with mIRC whilst the options dialog is open anyway. You have to press OK to continue.


You won't like it when I get angry.

what exactly would the apply button do? you would have to script the events to the click of the apply button, so why not just create a button and name it apply?

He's talking about the Options dialog (Alt+O), not a custom dialog.


Spelling mistakes, grammatical errors, and stupid comments are intentional.

Say you change the timestamp format, but you want to change other stuff before you hit ok. an apply button would make the timestamp changes take place right away, so events happening in the background are timestamped according to your new settings while you go off and do something else in the options. just an example, but i think it demonstrates that there are valid reasons for wanting an apply button in the options dialog.

It's been a while (20 months) since I suggested this, any chance for it?

If and when it gets done, it will be in the list of updates for the version in which it is initially applicable. Khaled has never stated what features are going to be implemented and/or when until the actual release. Occasionally Khaled will state if a bug report will be fixed for the next release,, but that's it.

I usually just hit ctrl+s and leave the editor open.

The suggestion isn't for the editor, it's for the options dialog.

RusselB: I know all that, I was basically just bumping the (almost 2 year old) thread.

Right you are, didnt read the original post correctly. Probably because i have a habit of just glancing when somebody hits enter every few words (such an annoying irc-habit imo).

Anyway, not apposed to an apply button, but i dont think their are many options (in comparison with the amount of options their are), that you would immediately notice when hitting apply.

I think the purpose is just to immediatly save the settings... the options dialog needs a complete overhall anyhow.
