Now that ms.org seems to be gone, where do I get dialog studio? I reformatted my computer and i need that app to design dialogs quickly...

is there going to be another website for dialog studio?

I haven't seen any sites that distribute Dialog Studio except for mircscripts.org. If I remember correctly, Dohcan didn't want people to redistribute it so you could only get it from mircscripts.org. I don't have the original .zip file but I can zip the files up and send them to you if you post your email address or AOL Instant Messenger screen name.

It's too bad there's not an archive of older versions of it. The latest version crashes all the time when I use it smirk (mostly when I preview the dialog)

No, and there probably won't be any new versions of it either. This latest incident with the server being down coupled with the fact that I simply have no time or motivation to work on it will most likely lead to its current site/forum being removed. I see that someone provided a download to some version (didn't check) here... download that at your own risk.

I'm going to use this thread to "officially" announce that I'm no longer supporting Dialog Studio. I think someone named RG is writing a program that, apparently, "ownz dstudio foolz." If you can find his program, it would probably be best to use that, as it should be more up to date.

As for the source code... please don't ask for it right now. I haven't decided what I'm going to do yet.

Thanks for everyone that supported and helped me with Dialog Studio.

i personally find it much better to use dialog studio to make the dialog, then use the markdialog feature :tongue:

Why doesn't someone just write a Dialog Maker program in mIRC script? I attempted this many many versions back (5.6 or 5.7 somewhere), but now everything is so dynamic that you should be able to create a dialog, modify the elements and attributes, and test it on the fly.

I think I'll give it another shot.

Someone did once, and the thing was very buggy! The script utilized mIRC's picture window support, and it was very inaccurate when it came to trying out the dialog's source code that you created. If I were you, I wouldn't even waste my time attempting to script an mIRC dialog maker.

Khaled should design an external program to design mIRC dialogs. Now that would be worth downloading! Yeah, I know, mIRC is not an operating system... *Sigh* laugh

One more thing, is there anyone out there who actually designs their dialogs "the good ol' fashioned way", without the use of a program?

I am designing dialogs manually since it ever became available in mIRC. When dialog editors became available, it didn't change anything. I don't know, I feel I am more in control when coding it.

I used to too until i started to run the dialog, then have to close it, change one value, reopen it, close it, change, open--too much work.

I never said anything about picture windows. The dialog editor would simply format your Dialog Table as you drag controls around on a dialog. The design dialog traps events as you drag the mouse around, moving and resizing objects, etc.

/did can do almost anything.

That doesn't sound half bad at all. I automatically assumed it would use picture window support.

Does anyone know of a way to specify that a Dialog event should capture events for multipe or ANY (*) Dialog IDs?

Eg: On *:Dialog:Name:Event:*:

The above example desn't seem to work though. frown
Btw, this is for the 'mouse' event, if it makes any difference. I would like an event to trigger when moving the mouse over any control.
