i want to modify a script so that i can hide a chat window and it will still be there but the person won't be able to see it and then make it visible again

Couldn't you use Messenger Lock for this?
(Plus! > Preferences > Messenger > Messenger Lock)

Edit: Sorry

i want to write a SCRIPT to hide ONE CHAT WINDOW

EDIT: i know i can use api calls but wich ones

ShowWindow with SW_HIDE and SW_SHOW

i figured that out but what do i pass it as the first argument? the ChatWnd object? and are SW_HIDE and SW_SHOW really constants in JScript? the values of these are 0 and 5 so why not just pass that?

code:

---

    var handle = Interop.Call("user32.dll", "FindWindowA", "", Nick + " - Conversation");

---

is there something the matter with this because it keeps returning 0 and that is why it is not working.

EDIT: Nick is the other username

You just double posted, use the edit button.

The ChatWnd object has a Handle property you can use as this ChatWnd.Handle, this will give the handle you can hide.

If you want to find the window use

code:

---

Interop.Call('user32', 'FindWindowW', 'imwindowclass', '');

---

That will find the first window.

What is the point of what you are doing? Are you entering a command into a chat window?

WHy not just use the LockMessenger feature?

I am using the file server script and when the user logs in i want to hid the window and when the user logs out i want to show it again this way i don't have to look at the window while the person is typing.

Ok no offence thats stupid but use the OnEvent_ContactSignout and OnEvent_ContactSignIn

when the contact signs in create a window and hide it, when they sign out show it.

Can't anyone just post a script instead  of codes! Cause everyone else which don't know how to write a script (myself included) don't understand the codes!!!

If people don't know how to use the codes posted, they should probably look through the scripting documentation rather than just seeing what they can do with advanced API calls
