O.P. CSS~able background tabs?
Hello.
I'm curious I can change apperance in chat window. Like the background of
the tab of my messages and different background of the tab of the different
user.
I don't mean the background of the text.

And is there any way of increace the spacing of lines between them? The
lines are really near...

For more understanding: I wish to control it somewhere with like a css
command "Padding" or "margin".
Like

.text_me {
  font color: gold;
  font size: 1.5em;
  padding: 4px;
}
.text_others {
  font color: black;
  padding: 4px
}

I think you understand me now. :-)
I hope.

Thanks for the reply.

(I'm using Miranda and I was hoping that it can be more or less in this appearence too:

You know: Lines aren't near, My / her dialog has a different tab, it's nice. WLM is... Not so good to watch. ARGH sorry for my english :-) )

Welcome to the forum,

Firstly the section you posted in is related to the Messenger Plus! Live scripting engine. These are 2 seperate entities. Those being your IM client and Messenger Plus! Live.

Secondly this should be posted in the Tech Talk section as it has nothing to do with Messenger Plus! Live.

And thirdly does the Miranda IM have a forum you can ask there? I doubt anyone or at least the majority of us use any other IM client aside from Windows Live Messenger.

O.P. RE: CSS~able background tabs?
Thanks for the welcome and Hi

About the 3 things:

1) I know that this is about WLM Plus! so I posted it right I think. I'm looking for some kind of script to WLM Plus!

2) Answered a post before (it has to do with Messenger Plus! Live)

3) Miranda IM has a forum. I'm sure of that.

But you haven't understood me properly I think.
I've got WLM and I'm not satisfied with the style of the text in communication window so I'm looking for some kind of script or help from others to - convert / modify / change / ... - the style of Text in WLM as it would be like in my Miranda IM.

Or isn't there any way to do so?
For example. I've tried many skins for WLM Plus! and some of them have good space between lines (+- 10px) and some of them (I'm using LTD) have a less space (+- 5px) so the lines are really close and it's hard to distinguish who wrote what at the first glance.

Hope it's clearer now :-)

This isn't possible in a script it needs to be developed as a skin.

There is a skin section. I have no experience with skinning.

From my experience with skinning, it's most likely that it is extremely difficult, if not impossible.

That's a shame :-(
So if not the colors and different tabs as they are now:

Do you know how to increase the space between the lines?

(for example: if I push Shift Enter / or send the message, it would be like I pusth the Shift Enter two times. Basically: Another line is more distant from the previous)

No skin has done that before, as far as I'm aware.

So there is no way to increase the space between lines? Script / skin / addon / anything at all? Don't tell me that.
:-D
There --has to be-- a way to modify it. Because... in the WLM code, it's there somewhere! :-)
