Alright.

Right now I currently have 2 pictures. 59003 and 59004. Those 2 consist of my contact lists background.

code:

---

                        <Picture Id="59003"><File>imgs\clbg.png</File></Picture>
                        <Picture Id="59004">
                            <File>imgs\clin.png</File>
                            <Metadata>
                            <UMLeft>1</UMLeft>
                            <UMRight>1</UMRight>
                            <UMTop>1</UMTop>
                            <UMBottom>1</UMBottom>
                            <Colorize>true</Colorize>
                            </Metadata>
                        </Picture>

(1)For the exterior of it is 59003 is 923 Style.txt

code:

---

Element[id=atom(mainwndcontainer)]
{
    Background:rcbkd(59003);
}

---

(2)For 59004 (the actual "contact list background" my code for 1001 Style.txt is

code:

---

BuddyList[ID=Atom(abview)]
{
    AccName:rcstr(45675);
    AccDesc:rcstr(45675);
    Borderthickness:rect(0,0,0,0);
    Background:rcbkd(59004);
}

---

Together it makes this



Now everything looks good.

The 2 pictures look like they are 1 giant image going across the Contact List.

But what goes wrong is when I use the MP!L Option inside my script to remove the Search Bar.



The consistency breaks because there is more space for the contact list to expand.

I'd like to know if there is a way I can make it go all across so it's 1 giant image and not 2 images.

(clin.png) 59004

Thanks

Btw. WLM 9.0

I did it with mine, but I am not doing it exactly as you are...

What I did (and it may work for you, but might not) is use the entire large image as Image 1 in your example. Then for image 2, don't even use an image. Set the background to argb(0,255,255,255). That will set the background of the contact list entirely transparent, making your image 1 show through. Change the 0 in that argb value to a higher number to make it an opaque white. Let me know if this works for you.

Hey.

What I assume the error is from. 1001 Style.txt

<style resid=mainss>
BuddyList[ID=Atom(abview)]
{
    AccName:rcstr(45675);
    AccDesc:rcstr(45675);
    Borderthickness:rect(0,0,0,0);
    Background:argb(0,255,255,255);
}

Bolded part is Line Seven

Halp ?



edit: Making an error. For example a double )) in Background:argb(0,255,255,255))

It does not show the list at all. But you can see all the picture

I use 8.5 so I can't be 100% certain, but try this:

Change the background property back to what it was, and do this:

Element[ID=Atom(ai558)]
{
    Background:argb(0,255,255,255);
}
Element[ID=Atom(ai559)]
{
    Background:argb(0,255,255,255);
}

Thats for 8.5, so I don't know if it will work for 9.0.

EDIT: Do a search for the above btw. It should be near the bottom of the 1001 style.

It's not there . (It's not in ANY of the 9.0 Resources. I checked )

PS: I added you to WLM, because I need to go to bed now so maybe we can talk tomorrow .

I am not to sure then since I don't use 9.0.

And sounds good, I'll talk to you after school and see if we can work it out .

And if you set it to 0, it makes things transparent.

Williz ?!

When the parser fails at parsing the contact list, the contact list is hidden. Then the background you had is showing, because it was underneath the contact list.

Also try the Alpha-attribute to apply transparency. It's a number from 0-255, where 255 is 100% visible.
