No. You cannot resize nor move a control on an open dialog. You can only alter what's displayed in that control.

You could do it using mdx.dll.

Read the "MoveControl" section of the "dialog.hlp" help file that came with it.

erm new problem.....

ok i now know how to get it too move..... but theres a problem..

i put in
//dll $md MoveControl <dlg> <id> <new pos>

and it does it.... but .... it doesnt move

but heres the really odd part....

it doesnt show that it moves untill u make mirc minimize it or goto a diff proggy then come back to mirc... and it shows it moved...

i have tryed 2 diffrent aproces to over come this but both have failed

1) i move the icon then hide and restore visability....
2) make the dialog inactive and return its activeness

both failed any other ideas?

I haven't tried it (and I can't), so I have no idea if it works, but have you tried did -g $dname ID $did($dname,ID) after the MoveControl call?

Make sure you are moving the correct id.

I got the same result. Using /dialog -s to move the dialog off the screen and back again seems to work.
Code:
alias redraw {
  var %t = $dialog($dname).x $dialog($dname).y $dialog($dname).cw $dialog($dname).ch
  dialog -sb $dname -10000 -10000 0 0
  dialog -s $dname %t
}

He is saying that moving it off the screen, then back on fixes the icon problem.
