Dialog tooltips #197062 27/03/08 07:22 PM

ots654685 O	I'm searching the internet whole day now looking for a way to add tooltips to some of my dialog's but i can only find mTooltips.dll I also noticed mirc itself uses some tooltips sometimes so was wondering how it's done and can it be used for personal use? I noticed MDX.DLL in scripts\dll folder, is that the dll mirc itself uses? Are there other methods getting tooltips in your own script apart from third party dll's?

ots654685 O	Mmm then i wonder where MDX is coming from. If mTooltips.dll is the only option then i'll stick to that. Would have been nice to have it build in mIRC. I thought it was because of change log Quote: Full list of Fixes, Changes and Additions in mIRC 6.31: 1.Fixed tooltips bug in toolbar. After reading that i was under the impression i could use it in scripts also that's why i asked.

ots654685 O	Can MDX be used for tooltips also then? I believe it came with that addon i have installed (nnscript) and if MDX is capable to do tooltips then i don't need another dll :P
