DONE: move Miranda's IRC window to lower position on screen when not active

[brotherS]

Hi,

I'm using Miranda's tabbed IRC window and thought this could be quite helpful:

Because I'm always having loads of windows open on the desktop it would be helpful to automatically move Miranda's IRC window down so that I could see the tabs at any moment (because no other window will be lying over it at that position).

Maybe something using

Code

SetTitleMatchMode, 2
IfWinNotActive, Chat Room

would work ("Chat Room" is always displayed in IRC's window title) for this task?


Normally it looks like this (bottom left of my desktop):




This is what I want when the window is not active/focused:



(Before you start to laugh about the big font size: yes, I'm using my monitor at a 2 metre's distance right now)

Is WinWarden at www.donationcoder.com/Software/Skrommel overkill?

*gasp* I didn't study rocket science, but I'll try to make it do what I plan to

Btw, the two latest programs you added/updated both got a strange "2006.04.02" date in the "HISTORY OF CHANGES", and you might wanna change the URL the WinWarden URL at the top of that points to.

It works, thanks!! 

WinWarden is really impressive, I'm already thinking about other uses for it

I wish I could have donated more to you, with SO many AHK tools now on your DC page you really deserve it!

I noticed something strange:

As long as WinWarden has the Miranda window moved to its 'low' position, I can type in there (I did set the timer to a longer interval, so it will not be immediately repositioned when it gets focus), but the Enter key just won't work until the window returns to it's original 'active' position.

Hmmmm... Makes no sense to me... Is there a default button in there somewhere?

What do you mean?

[skrommel]

Just rambling... In AutoHotkey controls the Enter key is handled differently than the other keys, maybe this is the case with Miranda too?

Err... no idea. But if you could implement my "second timer for WinWarden" idea from the other thread, that would make this problem irrelevant.

Did that a while back. Isn't it working?

You are talking about IdleMute - I was talking about WinWarden, see my quote above

I messed up that one! Twice!
