2006 IRCX/IRCXPRO Screen shots

I don't think the link supports background coloring. I remember trying and trying way-back-when.

as a file ?

i thought he meant tryin to change the back ground color on the link part in the dialog lol

i wanted the background of the hyperlink to be the same as the rest , so i removed the hyperlink and changed it to text

you can't set them for links.

Also i'd move away from the MSN style nicklist (unless it's the same as your OCX that you have on your server).

Perhaps you could try & redisgn certain aspects of your dialog. My comments are are only that, comments. PLease don't take any offense to what I say.

Is it really necessary to have the VSIXc logo on top of the dialog? If the add on is made for your server alone then you may not need to advertise that fact.

Using a check box to enable/disable using colours would be much easier & give the dialog a neater appearance.

Extras doesn't need the apostrophe.

I hope you take no offense to my comments. They are nothing more than suggestions

If interested there is also a dll named colorcombo.dll that puts all the colours into a handy little drop-down combo box. This would remove the need for the edit box telling you what colour you have chosen.

nah , i don't take offense to your comments .

Its always intresting to read what ppl would do different .

Also, to fix the edit box thing so you don't have to show what color is selected, you can just use more images and like make an outline around the color that you're using.

Here's a mockup I did. This is how I probably would have designed the dialog

Lol Josh', I was going to do the same thing Still need to get the ' out of "Extras"

Umm...notify list anyone? Still trying to get it to function properly. Very buggy....as in, I have to manually update the names from offline to online right now as I haven't coded that function yet. Oh, and um, it's real buggy when trying to right click to get a menu...the dll that I use for popups doesn't like me =(

It's just getting the initial list started like when I first connect to a server. Some of my contacts are going to be offline so I need to figure out how to remove someone from offline to online basically. Once I figure out how to get the person from offline to online once I'm notified that they're online then I can do the rest.

woohoo i poked into another screenie

So, something like this ..

alias -l load.notify {
 var %i 1, %x 0
 while (%i <= $notify(0)) {
   if ($server) { 
     if ($notify(%i).ison) { did -a dname idnum 0 1 $notify(%i) $chr(9) Online $chr(9) $notify(%i).note | inc %x }
     elseif ($rini(notify.sort) != online) { did -a dname idnum 0 2 $notify(%i) $chr(9) Offline $chr(9) $notify(%i).note }
   }
   else { did -a dname idnum 0 2 $notify(%i) $chr(9) Offline $chr(9) $notify(%i).note }
   inc %i
 }
 dialog -t notify Notify List [/nlist] . $iif($server,( $+ %x $+ / $+ $notify(0) $+ ),Not Connected)
alias -l notify.online {
 if ($1 == begin) { return - }
 var %i 1
 while (%i <= $notify(0)) {
   if ($1 == %i) { return $iif($notify(%i).ison,$notify(%i)) : query $notify(%i) }
   inc %i
 }
 if ($1 == end) { return - }
}
alias -l rini { return $readini($shortfn($scriptdirglobaldir.ini),settings,$1-) }
}

You can use something like that .. I use it for a seperate dialog window for my notify list. It really just uses dids from the internal address list, and displays em like that. You can figure out some kinda way to use it, really from internal is how it works. Pretty easy if ya know what your doing. I got stuck with that at first to.

Thank you X! I've gone through to comment the code so I know what it does...I'm sure when I go do another notify for another script I'll know what to do lol. Comments give credit to you. This script isn't going to be released so...doesn't really matter I don't think, but just in case for reference
