ok i have thqat and it all works but... all i see is hello and my email... the rest of it goes off the edge... how do i make it have like word wrapping so it makes it on a new line if it dont fit?

---

Put \n when you want a new line

wen i put \n just before "You have..." it pushes it all of the toast completely so all i get is welcome and the email

How could this script be written to play a customized audio file instead of written text, is it possible? Hi all...

cheers...

Yes but the  scripting docs are lost a can find them

I shall redownload

The scripting docs can never be lost though.

Simply select "Scripting Documentation" from the dropdown menu in the script editor. If the scripting documentation isn't available yet, Plus! will automatically redownload it again and will automatically open it. So, no reason to not read the documentation first...



After the download, the file MPLScripting.chm (=the scripting documentation) will be located in your Plus! Live installation directory. I suggest also to make a shortcut for it.

hi...  i am tryin to make the toast show how many contacts are online and this is what ive come up with... im not very good at this as it doesnt work do you know how to make it do what i want?

---

The reason that this doesn't work is because you have two of the same functions (OnEvent_SigninReady). You can only have 1 function like that. So add the second one into the first one...

Also note that toasts have a limited space. A full sentence like that will probably not be able to be shown on the small space you got in a toast.

First of all, is there a reason why you use DisplayToastContact here instead of DisplayToast? Both functions are slightly different and if you want auto-wrapping you're best of using DisplayToast.

See scripting documentation for detailed info.

Please read the scripting documentation en browse the many available build-in functions (eg: PlaySound).



----------------------------------

I can't emphesize enough how important it is to first read the scripting documentation, and second to search forums.... before asking questions (or even giving advise).

A lot of stuff can be found in it and many questions are answered. Of course, you need to get used to reading the documentation and navigating thru it, the same for the forums. But once you are used to that, you will also have the means to search for answers yourself and in the long run you'll be learning a lot more things and will find solutions much quicker...

I didnt know it was there i always thought you had to download it then open it... oh well
