Hi,

Is it possible to add a similar button in the chat window like the one patchou added for quicktext and sounds next to the typing area?

I would like to be able to change settings for my plugin in each chat window, whereas now I'm stuck on a external application that reads config settings from an XML file

Thanks for your opinion/remarks


Kenny

Why not use the menu on the menubar? (Press Alt).

That is an option I considered, but is there any way to create something as I described in my first post?
The plugin is kkinda ready for use, but I need a good spot/position for the users to access the functionalities...

Obviously needing to be changed for the Conversation Window.

Thx matty, i'm diggin' into that stuff right now, looks very nice indeed... exactly what i was looking for!

When my plugin(MsnFrag) is ready, I'll post it out here so you guys can beta test...

^^ A version for a chat window i did a long time ago

Here's one thing I don't understand, the form created to handle the textbox/button/image, it must exist at all time, but not visible?

basically yes

K, it's working real nice for me, viva los handles ^^

K, sorry to whine again, but i'm getting an error in VB.NET saying the ShowWindow method is wrongly declared.
Is it possible that in .NET, this method has new paramaters? or am I just making the worst mistake ever?

Public Class FragMsnIMButton
    Private WithEvents oMessenger As MessengerAPI.Messenger
    Private Declare Function SetParent Lib "user32" (ByVal hWndChild As Long, ByVal hWndNewParent As Long) As Long

    End Function


    Private Sub FragMsnIMButton_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        oMessenger = New MessengerAPI.Messenger
    End Sub

    Private Sub oMessenger_OnIMWindowCreated(ByVal pIMWindow As Object) Handles oMessenger.OnIMWindowCreated
        'ShowWindow(pIMWindow.hwnd, 2) ' maximize the window so that it works
        Dim newBtn As Object
        Dim imhwnd As Long
        newBtn = New FragMsnIMButton ' create a copy of FragMsnIMButton
        imhwnd = pIMWindow.hwnd
        SetParent(newBtn.btnFrag.hwnd, imhwnd)
        newBtn.btnFrag.left = 13500 'Moving the textbox under the display picture
        newBtn.btnFrag.top = 2800 ' ^^ look up
