O.P. empty preferences window
hey,

i need an empty messenger plus preferences window, without those 4 upper tabs (just 1, without text) and no tabs at the left.. can someone help me?

maybe patchou, he owns the whole stuff?

i need it for a plugin site (a site about a plugin)..

thanks!

That is the best I could. If you could post it again without those X, it would have been easier.

I know that. But do you want the picture with no tabs at all or you want it with one text tab and the other three?

RE: empty preferences window
Change the localization (remove the texts in your language file) and take the screenshot you need, no need for photoshopping.

The sub-preferences panel image taken from the resources can then be superimposed over the inner panel to get rid of the options,  buttons, texts and other stuff on the inner panel.

-

Also remember that you can not only skin Messenger, but also skin Messenger Plus! itself. So you could make a small temporary "skin" (thus with an empty inner-panel) out of the official layout.

-

Or maybe even easier, make your own window with a script using the same images and controls. The exact build-up of images and controls can again be copied from the XML scheme resources, which you can easly get with Plus!'s resource extractor in the skinning section of the Preferences.
