Miranda Customization Topic

Sweetness. Yeah, it's in options as previously stated. I hid everything in mine and was like...how do I easily get all the stuff back? You guys may already know, but you can right-click the contact in the taskbar and select container options and then look under layout options.

You can also right-click the divider that separates the logged conversation and where you actually type in replies. Right-click in just the right spot (on the line) and you'll be able to also access the container options.

The spot I'm talking about only needs to be precise if you are hiding the tool bar in your window. If you aren't hiding it, just right-click a blank area on the tool bar section and you'll be able to access the container options as well.

It's just handy so I thought I'd mention it. ;)

Few questions,

1. How do I install the LE5 Theme for Miranda.

2. I downloaded a IEview theme or something, how do I use that.

Thanks :D

1. Download the ContactList Modern Layerd plugin.

2. Download the IEview Plugin.

Well doesn't that look familiar... :shifty: I hope you don't mind mail, but mine looks pretty darn similar to yours. It just goes well with my theme. I'll probably change my colors in a few days though. :p

where can i get i this ieview template?

[+orgitnized Subscriber¹]

The template is Candybar

The colors are mail's, so he can send them off to you if he likes. It wouldn't be right of me to give them out unless he gives permission.

Any links Capric0rn? :)

[Jamushroom Veteran]

Search on http://www.miranda-im.com ;)

[Ignite]

I get this for the Modern layered thing; Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms.

And I can't find a Link for IEView.

Please? ;)

[+orgitnized Subscriber¹]

What (in specific) are you looking for?

Here is IEView on Miranda's site.

Here is the developer page as well.

Modern layer? I must have missed something... :unsure:

[Ignite]

Too complicated, I'll stick with MSN I can't be bothered with all that Farting about.

UNLESS, Capric0rn or somone else wants to Earn themselvges ?12.36 and put IEView all setup and a IEView bubbles theme in the Miranda Folder and zip it and send it to me, ready to be used?;))

Thanks;))

Modern Contact List Layered 0.4.2.8

IEView 1.0.5.2

You really should set it up yourself.

My brother asked me to send him my folder without the database, and he still had problems.

Then he set it up himself and now it works fine for him :)

Maybe I'll look at setting something up with it in the near future here. I'll try a few things on my VMWare machine and see how I like the results.

I don't need the money, but I rather think some people would see it as being advantageous to have something that might be a bit easier to configure out of the box, so-to-speak.

At any rate, I'll see what I can do and maybe anyone who is interested can let me know if they want to try it out.

I learned Miranda through the Neowin guides and finding things out for myself and reshacking, etc. I don't know how easily this will be to deliver a finished package to people but like I said, I'll look into it. ;)

Please Ghost96! I desperately need Miranda help. No matter how hard I try, nothing ever plans on working correctly =/ .

If you want to create a Miranda 'package' for somebody, you can try the Remove Personal Settings plug-in. It'll remove your log-in information and stuff like that from your database while keeping your plug-in settings intact.

what font is used in this image?

[Jamushroom Veteran]

That's Calibri :)

[Pink Floyd Veteran]

Is there a hmmxp .msf skin available? The iview template is already awsome. I'd use the skin also!

I was not aware of that. That in itself will really help out with experimenting on my Miranda deployments. Thanks for the plug-in. I'll be checking it out tomorrow. Getting so sleepy now... :sleep:

what font is used in this image?

Capric0rn is always one step ahead of me! :laugh: Definitely right on the font. I'm using a 9 point on it but for those that have tried it and hated the looks, make sure you use the ClearTweak program from Microsoft. Do it here online automatically or download it here.

Using Calibri makes things look quite nice IMO, but the results look terrible and barely usable if you are not enabling ClearType font settings. ;)

Does anyone have a link to the latest nightly? The Miranda dev blog is down... :(

EDIT: I've found build #50.

Is it possbible to make the statusbar higher?

[+orgitnized Subscriber¹]

Is it possbible to make the statusbar higher?

What do you mean? Like move the position? Or make the height higher? Maybe with reshacking it or something to change values. Otherwise I don't think there's anything in the proggie that will allow you to do it.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

Ah ok :)

I wanted to know cause I'm workin on a Reluna Em3lent skin and I needed the statusbar to be heigher.

As it is now, I made it look higher to add the statusbar background to the hole skin (in my case that's called Back.png)

And the statusbar image is transparent.
