Hi, I want to suggest to add the possibility to set the trasparency on the dialogs (like the hOS.dll with $dname(dialogname).hwnd as reference for the target or something).

PS: There's no instructions about /setlayer in the main mIRC Help file!

Thanks! smile

The command is not documented because it's not directly supported. MDI does not properly handle transparency (though 6.3+ might do it properly) so there are no plans to continue work on this feature (according to that potentially outdated post). There are very simple WinAPI calls you can make with a DLL to add this functionality to your own dialogs, though. Such dlls probably already exist.

Yes, I actually do it with a dll, but I'm trying to use less dlls possibles, this because I've asked for that function.

Thanks anyway :P
