Possible? - mIRC Discussion Forums

hey, I was just messing with the Services notice window I have, and I was wondering, would this be possible?
(notice the top textbox, I edited the picture btw)
Picture (I made this image a link because of the resolution(1280x1024)

it would have any channel on the bottem, and the services notices at the top, as you can see, like...a text /toolbar hehe

This is already possible, under the condition that you are only connected to one network.
If this is so, and you're using mIRC 6.2, make your status window active, then click the Tile Horizontal icon (4th from the right using the default toolbar).
If not using mIRC 6.2, then press and hold the SHIFT key while clicking the Tile icon.

that that would normally work, but I only want the Services notices in a small 'toolbar' like that, with the rest of the windows 'fixed'(no titlebars)

This is sort of possible, but you will probably need a "Dock" type of DLL to do it. Check mircscripts.org.

well I somewhat worked it out with /window
but now I can't figure out how to send the data, because I can't get the name of the current (custom) window, $window by itself will work..like
//echo $window hai
but it won't return the value in something like..

Code:

var %chan = $window
echo -a %chan

any help?

The window name should be server specific.

To create the window: //window -SWITCHES $+(@watch.,$cid)

Then just use $+(@watch.,$cid) in your scripts to reference the window.

Its $chan as well, not %chan

first, it is %chan, notice the 'var'? :P

second the window name can vary, depending on the channel

Code:

 ON ^*:JOIN:#: {
  if ($nick == $me) {
    ;window -h $chan
    window -enkvl12S +d $+(@,$chan) 0 51 1188 875
  }
  names $chan
}
ON ^*:TEXT:*:# {
  if ($($+(@,$chan),1)) {
    aline $($+(@,$chan),1) &lt; $+ $nick $+ &gt; $1-
  }
}
ON ^*:SNOTICE:*: {
  ;if ($($+(%,Oper.,$network),2)) {
  if (!$window($+(@,Server.,$network))) { window -nkvo +d $+(@,Server.,$network) 0 0 1188 59 }
  aline -hp $+(@,Server.,$network) $mytime 4 $+ $remove($1-,*** Notice -- $+ $Chr(32))
  halt
  ;}
}
ON 1:INPUT:@: {
  if ($mid($1,1,1) != /) {
    var %i = $($window,1)
    echo %i
    echo $window $mytime $Chr($Asc([)) $+ $me $+ $Chr($Asc(])) $1-
  }
}

now I'm a bit confused on how to get the input working...making it get the window name is my first convern, then I'll add the msg and such

NVM seems I was an idiot, I can just use $active XD
thanks for all the help
