using the Pet feature for something else..........

Post by RogerWilco » Wed Nov 26, 2003 10:18 am

ok... this is my problem... I found someone's little code on here and modified it some... problem is it says to put it in the Friendswnd.xml which isnt a problem but everytime you hit ESC it closes the window and that gets irritating. What I tried to do was put the code it in the PetInfoWindow.xml. Sadly this did not work...


what now?

You have to modify the pet window to set all the required objects (buttons, health, etc) to either a size of 0,0 or position them off screen.

Some windows have required pieces that have to be there otherwise the UI won't load completely. Also, you can't have pieces named the same spanning windows (even though you can use the same EQType in multiple places).

I believe your talking about my first shot at a window what you need to do is look for this line of code

Code: Select all

   <Screen item = "FriendsWindow"> 
and change "FriendsWindow" to "PetWindow"( i think its pet window check the default to find out)
