$did Identifier - mIRC

mIRC

The $did identifier allows you to get the settings and values of controls in a dialog and use them to assist in performing the functions of buttons, radio boxes, etc.

Synopsis[edit]

$did(<name>,<id>,[N])[.property]

Note: Inside the on dialog event, you can omit the whole dialog <name> parameter:

$did(<id>,[N])[.property]

Parameters[edit]

<name> - name of the dialog
<id> - id of the controls
[N] - usually a line number, it can also be an id number with menus, use 0 if you want to access the editbox of a combo control.
[.property] - used to check features of the dialog id, such as button state, selected line in a combo control, or number of lines in an editbox.

Example[edit]

This example will monitor what events are triggering, what event ID is triggering the event, and any current captions or titles of the event ID which triggered an event. Created a custom alias called /whatEvents which will open up the local dialog whatEvents:

alias whatEvents dialog - $+ $iif($dialog(whatEvents),v,m) whatEvents whatEvents
dialog -l whatEvents {
  title "Events? What Events?"
  size -1 -1 136 112
  option dbu
  text "Event Type", 1, 8 8 73 8
  text "", 2, 82 8 49 8
  text "Event Item ID", 3, 8 18 73 8
  text "", 4, 82 18 49 8
  text "Event Item Caption/Value", 5, 8 28 73 8
  text "", 6, 82 28 49 7
  button "Click me", 7, 8 40 37 12
  edit "Type in me", 8, 48 40 66 13
  check "Check/Uncheck Me", 9, 8 64 58 10
  text "0", 10, 8 73 58 10
  text "Scroll Me", 11, 72 64 57 8, center
  scroll "", 12, 72 72 58 8, range 0 100 horizontal bottom
  button "&Close", 13, 93 90 37 16, ok
}
ON *:DIALOG:whatEvents:*:*: {
  did -ra $dname 2 $devent
  did -ra $dname 4 $did
  did -ra $dname 6 $iif($did == 0,NA,$iif($did($did),$v1,$iif($did($did).sel,$v1,$iif($did($did) == 0,0,NA))
  did -ra $dname 10 $did(9).state
}

Once saved into a script file inside of the mIRC remotes, the above example can be executed by typing the following command:

/whatEvents

Almost all events are accounted for. The dialog properly tracks mouse movements, the ID of the elements being altered/used, and any other sorts of attainable event information.
