Note: Using names -1 and @desktop are aliases to the width and height of the screen, -2 and @mirc are aliases to the main mIRC window, -3 and @mdi are aliases to the MDI window where all other windows inside mIRC are displayed. Using $window(name) with these aliases does not return a window name, and the only properties which return a value for these names are: .x .y .w .h .dx .dy .dw  .dh .state .icon .type .cid .wid .hwnd (wid and cid return 0).<br><br>
 
−
 
 
−
Note: $window(name) returns the actual name of the window, regardless of the upper/lower case spelling used in the identifier. If window was created using name @Test, $window(@TEST) and $window(@test) both return Test. Channel and DCC windows return a value only when $window is used from that connection id. $window(#test) returns the name of that channel window when the active window is on the connection where a channel named #test is open, and returns $null at all other connections.<br><br>
 
−
 
 
−
If there is an open send window, $window(Send ReceivingNick $nopath(filename)) returns $null except within the connection where the DCC was made.<br><br>

−
The non-number name used to obtain properties from a window should be the same string returned by the $active identifier.
