I trying to make my own Addon (of course, not like Plus!, just a very little stuff) and when i use SetParent Api the Plus! icon disappears after 2 seconds

I try that line of code in new clean programm and still happend that

Just a "SetParent Picture1.hwnd, MainMsnWindow.Hwnd"

I Use VB, have Pus! 3.52.130 and WinXP

In the screenshot you can see my "button"

After using the SetParent api, make Picture1.Left bigger than what it is now.
In other words, put the picture box more left

This should fix your problems...

Messenger Plus! checks the pixel colors around the icon to make sure it can add it properly.. it's a delicate and complicate process... if you add your icon farfrom the Plus! one, itshould work without any problem.

Uhm.. yep, now i move like 100 pixels to left and works fine.. but now there is much space between my icon and Plus! icon

I had already verified before but it did not work.. now i move more to left

I think is better than nothing

Thanks

Experiment with the values till you find the best one to use. You may want to make a small dialog for this purpose

Does Plus checks the pixel colours against the resources in MSN itself? I assume it has to so it'll work with skins?
