I think that with a support script you could have a scrolling text window right now. It would take a bit of work to get the scrollbar right, but once done, it would be something you could just call whenever you wanted. Effectively, it would be added, but purely script-side.

Creating a scripted scrolling text window is something that I'm working on. Displaying a set of text lines isn't difficult to do, but adding the scroll bar has been a bit difficult. Actually, I keep getting sidetracked on other things while trying to make a functional scroll bar, so it might actually be easier than I think. I just haven't done much work on it.

Maybe some tips, how to make scrolling so I'll try?

I'm requesting for making scrolled minitextwindows mainly because it work noticeable faster when coded as a part of MUSHclient than when scripted externarly in (eg.) PHP. Hmm.. To be honest, I'm lazy too ;)

I love my scripts look simple and work fast so I'm wondering of plans that minitextwindows will be added/text mechanism simplified/notepad integrated with worldwindow etc :> I just don't know what to do now: stay a little longer on old scripts waiting for new versions of mushclient or start to transfer my c# (sic!) toolbars to miniwindows.
I'm doing my best with English... Sorry ;)

Slightly offtopic, but I was wondering whether 4.36 would come out before the weekend? I have some scripting intentions and it would be lovely to have the ability to get the output-windowsize and such, to name one.

I think it is about ready - it should be released about 5 hours from the date/time of this message.

Is there a chance that it will be added an ability to get mouse x&y position on the screen (soon)? eg. in getinfo func. It's simple to code and will be very, very useful, even (or aspecially) with MouseDown and CancelMouseDown hotspot actions when coding window resizing/movement/scrolling.

Please? :)

Could it be possible to add a "WindowDestroy" function?

I may be anal. Having to loop over (in WindowList()) a temporary window that was used once to create an image and will never be used again irks me. My momma taught me to clean up after myself. :)

I can see some hesitation if plugin authors arbitrarily destroy any window (I made a bunch, I only need to keep this one, so let's destroy everything but that one!.... baaad).

And add GetInfo(280) = Border Colour?

GetInfo 272-279 retrieve 8 of the 9 values TextRectangle expects.

Hi Nick,

I wonder, is it possible to configure the main world border yet with Mushclient 4.37? I've seen some screenshots, with the main window is not taking the whole space, but can't find any documentation about it.

I was first think if it's possible to set the "Text offset from edge" to bigger than 20 pixels. I'm just used to having a map on the left hand side of the screen, and navigating my way by looking at the map, rather than reading exits word.

For now, I simply create a trigger to capture every single line, then send it back with some spaces appended in front of each line. It's a bit messy though. :)

Thanks!

Just when I gave it up searching, it shows up! The function is TextRectangle for anyone who wonder about the same thing.

Cheers. :)

Actually, TextRectangle is different. TextRectangle sets a rectangle in which the text is placed. The Text Offset applies even within that rectangle. You can see this best if you configure a coloured border around the textrectangle.
